Speaker
The speaker is located on the back of the MX6 PPC. The speaker has a loudness of at least 87 dB
(1500 Hz) at 10 cm measured from the back of the unit. The Speaker volume is adjustable via the
keypad or the Settings or by an application through the use of an API call. There are 5 distinct
volume levels. The minimum volume level is 0 (no sound) with a default setting of 3. The volume
sticks at maximum and minimum levels.
The speaker is disabled when a headset is plugged into the Audio Jack. The audio volume can be
adjusted to a comfortable level for the user. The volume is increased or decreased one step each
time the volume key sequence is pressed.
Speaker volume is first enabled and adjusted using the “Sounds & Reminders" icon. The default
value for Sounds and Reminders is midrange Volume and all sounds enabled. When volume and
sounds are enabled, speaker volume can be adjusted using the volume key sequence, if desired.
Note: An application may override the control of the speaker volume. Turning off sounds saves
power and prolongs battery life.
The volume is adjusted using

icon then

for key clicks and screen taps and whether each is loud or soft.

As the volume scrollbar is moved between Loud and Silent, the computer will emit a beep each
time the volume increases or decreases in decibel range. The Volume icon in the system bar can
also be used to adjust the system sound volume.
