aupanel - allows user adjustment of Network Audio System device attributes SYNOPSIS
aupanel [-audio servername] [-device id] [-interval seconds] DESCRIPTION
aupanel provides an X-based window-oriented interface allowing the user to adjust the attributes of the devices provided by the Network Audio System service. OPTIONS
The following options may be used with aupanel: -audio servername This option specifies the Network Audio System server to contact. -device id This option specifies the initially activated audio device on the server. If the id is a decimal number n, the nth device returned by the server is used. If it is a hexadecimal number (starting with 0x) it is used as the resource identifier of the desired device. Otherwise, id should be the exact device name (e.g. Stereo Channel Output). You can use auinfo to query an audioserver for this information. -interval seconds aupanel queries the device attributes in regular intervals with a default length of 10 seconds. With this option a different inter- val length can be specified. Using an interval length of 0 disables the automatic querying. Additionally, options from the Athena Widget Set can be used. AUPANEL AND THE ATHENA WIDGET SET
aupanel uses the X Toolkit Intrinsics and the Athena Widget Set. For more information, see the Athena Widget Set documentation. ADJUSTING DEVICE ATTRIBUTES
To adjust the attributes of a device, select the desired device from the Devices menu. The device gain may be adjusted using the Gain slider. If applicable, the device input mode can be toggled between Line-In and Microphone by clicking on the appropriate box. If appli- cable, the device output mode can be selected by clicking on the Speaker, Headphone, and Line-Out boxes. Some output devices may support combinations of these selections. To query the current device attributes, click on the Query button. To mute (resp. unmute) the current device, click on the Mute button. ENVIRONMENT
In addition to the standard toolkit environment variables, the following environment variables are used by aupanel: AUDIOSERVER This variable specifies the default audio server to contact if -audio is not specified on the command line. If this variable is not set and the -audio is not specified on the command line, aupanel will attempt to connect to the audio server running on the X Window System display. SEE ALSO

AUPHONE(1) General Commands Manual AUPHONE(1) NAME
auphone - a simple telephone client SYNOPSIS
auphone [-a servername] [-v volume] [-l latency] [-r filename] DESCRIPTION
auphone allows two-way real time voice communication between two audio servers. OPTIONS
The following options can be used with auphone: -a servername This option specifies the audio server to which auphone should connect. -v volume This is the volume, in percent, for the incoming ring sound. The default is 15 percent. -l latency This is the latency, in seconds, of the auphone connection. A lower value will result in better real-time communications at the expense of possibly overloading the server (causing dropouts) and a greater network duty cycle. A higher value will lessen the load on the server and decrease the network duty cycle but will increase the communications delay. The default value is .25 sec- onds. -r filename You can personalize your incoming ringing sound using the -r option. Simply specify the filename of an audio file to use for the incoming ring sound. Note that this sound will be looped. USAGE
To place a call, enter the address of the audio server that you wish to connect with in the Who text field. Then hit RETURN or click on the Call button. If the callee is accepting calls, you should hear a ringing sound. If the callee answers, the username and server address of the callee will be displayed. To disconnect, click on the Hangup button. To receive incoming calls, you must already be running auphone. To answer an incoming call, click on the Answer button. You may also determine who's calling before you answer by clicking on the Caller ID button. Once you're connected, the Volume slider controls the volume of the speaker output and the Input Gain slider and Input Mode toggle control the gain and mode of the microphone or line input.
