Volume Control

Your LifeBook notebook has multiple volume controls which interact with each other.

Any software that contains audio files will also contain a volume control of its own. If you install an external audio device that has an independent volume control, the hardware volume control and the software volume control will interact with each other. It should be noted that if you set your software volume to Off, you will override the external volume control setting.

CONTROLLING THE VOLUME

Methods to Control Volume

The volume can be controlled in several ways:

■Volume can be set from within the Volume Control on the Taskbar.

■Volume can be controlled by many volume controls that are set within individual applications.

■Certain external audio devices you might connect to your system may have hardware volume controls.

Each source discussed above puts an upper limit on the volume level that must then be followed by the other sources.

We recommend that you experiment with the various volume controls to discover the optimal sound level.
