NAME

     arcofi -- Siemens PSB2160 audio codec


SYNOPSIS

     arcofi* at dio?
     audio*  at audiobus?


DESCRIPTION

     The arcofi driver supports the HP ``Audio1'' audio devices, based upon
     the Siemens PSB2160 ``ARCOFI'' codec, to implement the audio device
     interface described in audio(4).

     This device is found onboard HP 9000 workstations models 425e, 705 and
     710.

     The arcofi is limited to a phone-quality mono, 8000 Hz sound.

   AUDIOCTL SETTINGS
     The following encodings are supported:

           AUDIO_ENCODING_ULAW
           AUDIO_ENCODING_ALAW
           AUDIO_ENCODING_SLINEAR_BE  Natively supported.

           AUDIO_ENCODING_SLINEAR
           AUDIO_ENCODING_SLINEAR_LE
           AUDIO_ENCODING_ULINEAR_LE
           AUDIO_ENCODING_ULINEAR_BE  Software converted to
                                      AUDIO_ENCODING_SLINEAR_BE encoding.

   MIXERCTL SETTINGS
     The arcofi has three audio ports:

           inputs.line      The `line in' jack connector.
           outputs.line     The `line out' jack connector.
           outputs.speaker  The built-in speaker.

     Each port has a volume control, and can be muted.

     The outputs.line and outputs.speaker volume settings are tied to the same
     hardware setting.
