121.0. "Cust questions PC164 design with speaker .." by OTOU01::MAIN (NSIS Consultant,Canada,621-5078) Sun Jun 01 1997 22:17

    The following question was just posted on CompuServe. 
    
    It would be appreciated if someone could provide some insight and/or a
    pointer to someone who could confirm or add some additional light to
    this issue:
    
    "I've got an Enorex system with the new Digital PC164 system board.  I
    can barely hear the speaker when it beeps.  
    
    Enorex says that this is normal and that there is nothing that I can do
    about it.  I can't believe that Digital would design a speaker 
    connection that can't be heard!?"
    
    TIA,
    
    / Kerry

	This is best asked in RICKS::DECHIPS notes conference -- that is where the PC164 board designers tend to lurk. Where I this customer, I would determine if this is a volume problem, or if this was an Enorex enclosure problem. And I'd determine if a third-party audio amplifier could be configured. We have had some poor audio designs -- the VAXstation 4000-60 had the speaker aimed at the desk, and it was rather difficult to hear.
