Volume Control
Your Fujitsu LifeBook has multiple volume controls which interact with each other.
C A U T I O N
Any software that contains audio files will also contain a volume control of its own. Both the main LifeBook volume control and the software volume control will interact with each other, but it should be noted that if you set your software volume to Off, you will override the main volume control setting and the software setting will control the maximum knob setting.
CONTROLLING THE VOLUME
There is the hardware volume control located on the LifeBook itself, and the volume control set from within the Volume Control on the Taskbar. In addition to those, there are also application volume controls that are set within each program individually.
Each source discussed above, puts an upper limit on the volume level that must then be followed by the other sources. For example:
■Your hardware volume control is all the way down, therefore your individual software application’s volume control has no effect on the volume.
We recommend that you use the hardware volume controls to set the upper limit for the sound level and then make fine adjustments with the Volume Control on the Taskbar and individual application software.
SETTING THE HARDWARE
