Supported graphics upgrades for the Mo dels 747i/50 and 747i/100 are as

follows:

HP A2269A: Adds dual CRX-accelerated color graphic board, including

SGC CRX card, and two 19-in. 1280 X 1024 color monitors.

HP 98768A: CRX-accelerated color graphics and a 19-in. 1280 X 1024 color

Models 747i/50 and 747i/100 function as single workstations, accepting user

input from single keyboards, but delivering graphics output to as manyas

three monitors.

The Models 747i/50 and 747i/100 have only one SGC interface. Upgrade

products may not be used concurrently.

The 745i/100 or 747i/100 systems and upgrades are congured for a 70

For high-quality audio, headphones or external speakers are recommended.

In HP VUE, the b eeper audio v

you are using your system with the internal speaker only, the audio volume

from the internal speaker maybetoolow to be audible in some surroundings

On the other hand, if you are using your system with headphones plugged into

is more appropriate and you may nd the 100% level to b e uncomfortably loud.

Developing Audio Applications

The HP-UX audio software package contains client and server components,

which can run on separate systems. Audio data ma

system.

The Audio Applications Programming Interface (AAPI) includes a library of

functions that can be called by an application program written in C language.

The functions interact with the audio server, enabling the application to record

and play audio data les and also convert audio data les from one format to

another.

The AAPI also includes audio widgets for pla

y and record, and a to olkit of

functions that initialize, register, and unregister these widgets. The to olkit and

widgets enable application programs based on Motif or similar graphical user

interface toolkits to integrate audio capabilities.

Using the Audio Demonstration Program

The audio demonstration program is designed to demonstrate man

capabilities of the AAPI. It provides a Motif-like interface to play, record, and
