Volume Control; Controlling The Volume - Fujitsu LifeBook S Series Manual

L i f e B o o k S S e r i e s - S e c t i o n 2

Volume Control

Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook has multiple
volume controls which interact with each other.
Any software that contains an audio player
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

The volume can be controlled in several different
ways:
• Volume can be set from within the Volume
Control on the Taskbar.
• Volume can be controlled with the F8 and
F9 functions keys. Pressing [F8] repeatedly
while holding [Fn] will decrease the volume
of your notebook. Pressing [F9] repeatedly
while holding [Fn] will increase the volume
of your notebook.
• 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.
