Chapter 2. Using Audio Features

This chapter provides necessary information if you are using the various features of your ThinkPad computer.

Using the Audio Features ....................... 6

Using the 3D Sound Retrieval System (SRS) Function .... 7

Using the Audio Features

Your computer is equipped with the following:

A -inch (3.5-mm) diameter external stereo line-in or monaural

microphone/line-in jack.

Note: To use the input jack for an external stereo line-in device,

A -inch (3.5-mm) diameter stereo headphone or an

external-powered speaker jack.

A MIDI/joystick port on the enhanced port replicator. To use a MIDI device, you should first connect your computer to the enhanced port replicator; then connect an external MIDI device to the replicator. After docking your computer in the replicator, you should enable this port using the ThinkPad Configuration program.

Your computer also has an audio chip that enables you to enjoy various multimedia audio features. This audio chip provides the following features:

you need to disable the microphone function with the software on your operating system. For example in Windows 98, you can disable the function by putting a check mark in the check box of Mute for MIC in the “Master Out” window. To use the jack for a manual microphone, disable the line-in function with the software.

Recording and playing back of PCM and WAV files in 8-bit or 16-bit format.

Sampling of various rates from 8 KHz to 44 KHz for the WAV file.

Playback of MIDI files through an FM synthesizer.

Recording from various sound sources, such as an integrated microphone, an external microphone, or an audio device attached to a line-in jack.

DOS game compatibility. You should select Sound Blaster Pro** for the audio adapter in the sound setup of the game.

A 3D Sound Retrieval System (SRS) function, compensating for flat, two-dimensional sound image limitations by reestablishing

the necessary information that allows the human ear to hear in three dimensions.

Attention

You should stop playing audio before entering suspend or hibernation mode. You need to turn off any automatic timers that put the computer into suspend or hibernation mode. If the computer enters suspend or hibernation mode, data from a running audio program will be lost.

Using the 3D Sound Retrieval System (SRS) Function

To use the SRS function, do the following:

Double-click on the small speaker icon ( ) at the bottom right of the Windows desktop.

Click on the Start button, and then select Programs, Accessories, Entertainment, and Volume Control.

The “Master Out” window appears:

Make sure that the SRS Balance column is displayed and the Mute check box is unchecked.

If the column is displayed and the check box is not checked, exit the window. You can use the SRS function; skip the remaining steps.

Chapter 2. Using Audio Features 7

If the column is not displayed, go to the next step.

Select Options on the upper left corner of the window.

Select Properties. The “Properties” window appears:

Put a check mark on SRS and press OK. You return to the “Master Out” window.

Make sure that there is no check mark in the Mute check box in the SRS Balance column.

Exit the “Master Out” window.

Now you can use the SRS function.

Using the Battery Pack

If you use your ThinkPad computer with the battery pack, you need to conserve the power for long operation. The ThinkPad computer is provided with power management for saving battery power, and it always indicates the battery status. This chapter describes the functions for battery operation.

Charging the Battery Pack

You can charge the battery pack when the AC Adapter is connected to the computer and the battery pack is installed. You need to charge the battery pack in any of the following conditions:

Notes:

1. Before you charge the battery pack, ensure that its temperature

be fully charged with only a single charging. You will have to completely discharge it; then recharge it three to six times to maximize battery operating time.

Monitoring the Battery Status

Using the Battery Status Indicator

The battery status indicator shows the current status of the battery pack (only when the battery is installed).

Compare the battery status indicator with the following table to determine the condition of your battery:

Chapter 4. Using Your Computer with a Battery Pack 17

Saving Battery Power

Using the Power Management Modes

Your battery pack should be useful for approximately 3 years, or 300 charge-discharge cycles. The number of years or charge-discharge cycles might vary depending on how efficiently you use your computer. This section describes the following:

How to use the power management modes

How to use other battery-saving methods

You can use your computer under battery power for a considerable length of time by using these power management modes:

Attention

Do not enter suspend or hibernation mode when your computer is doing any of the following:

Playing or recording audio Playing a movie Playing a game Running any other multimedia application

Stop these applications before entering suspend or hibernation mode.

Standby Mode

For Windows 98 Users:

The LCD and external monitor turn off. Also the audio is muted. If no application program is running in the background, the hard disk spindle stops.

For Windows 95 Users:

The LCD turns off. Also, if a power-saving monitor (Energy Star Monitor) is in use when the computer enters standby mode, the computer activates the monitor's low-power mode.

You can enter standby mode by:

– Pressing the Fn+F3 keys.

You can return to normal operation by:

18 IBM ThinkPad 380Z Online User's Guide

– Pressing any key or moving the TrackPoint.

Suspend Mode

Your computer stops all tasks and stores all data in memory. You can enter suspend mode by:

– Pressing the Fn+F4 keys. – Closing the cover.

If you put a check mark in the Will not suspend even if LCD is closed check box in the “Power Management Properties” window, the computer does not enter suspend mode when the LCD is closed. Only the LCD turns off.

– Selecting the Suspend button ( ) in the Fuel-Gauge

program.

Your computer automatically enters suspend mode when:

– the preset timeout is reached.

For Windows 98 users:

You can set the System standby

RediSafe

To prevent loss of data during suspend mode when the battery is critically low, your ThinkPad computer has a RediSafe function. Once you set this function, the hibernation file is activated each time the computer enters suspend mode, and is ready to enter hibernation mode from suspend mode whenever the battery is low.

Set RediSafe as following:

You can set the timeout with the

From Windows 95 or Windows 98:

Hibernation Mode

Your computer stops all tasks and stores all data in the hard disk; then it powers off. Set your computer to this mode if you

20 IBM ThinkPad 380Z Online User's Guide

want to maintain the present operating condition until the next day, for instance.

To use this mode, you have to create a hibernation file with the ThinkPad Configuration program. (See Enabling Hibernation Mode.)

You can enter hibernation mode by:

– Pressing the Fn+F12 keys.

– Selecting the Hibernation button ( ) in the Fuel-Gauge

program.

– Turning the power switch off.

You can enable this option by putting a check mark in the

| Hibernate by power switch check box in the Hibernation | subwindow of the “Power Management Properties” window.

Your computer automatically enter hibernation mode when:

| – The preset timeout is reached. (Windows 95 user only) | If you add a check mark in the Hibernate by timer check | box in the Hibernation subwindow and set Suspend timer | in the Power Mode subwindow, your computer enters | hibernation mode when it reaches timeout.

– the battery is low.

If you put a check mark in the Hibernate when battery becomes low check box, your computer enters hibernation mode when the battery is low.

You can return the normal operation by turning the power on.

For Windows NT users:

You cannot create a hibernation file in a Windows NT system that uses the NTFS file format, the Windows NT default. If you want to use hibernation mode, you should reinstall Windows NT with the FAT file format.

Chapter 4. Using Your Computer with a Battery Pack 21

Notes:

1. Windows 95 users cannot enter hibernation mode when you are using the communication network.

2. Hibernation mode might end if you connect your computer to a port replicator or if you use a particular PC Card.

The following table shows how the indicator behaves in each power management mode:
