AD317A is the HP PCI sound card for HP Integrity servers. It has no speaker support of its own, so an external speaker has to be connected for sound.
Limited support for the AD317A PCI sound card on Integrity servers arrived with HP OpenVMS Version 8.4. A device driver and a DECwindows audio-support image use it for audible alarms (xBell) from X11 applications; bell tones run from 1000 Hz to 9000 Hz in steps of 1000 Hz. That support is meant for users who need audible warnings from X11 applications only.
The HP Integrity rx2620 and rx4640 take at most one AD317A each, and it is fitted at the factory only.
The sound card provides 16-bit stereo mic in, headphone out, line in and line out, takes one PCI slot and is for the HP-UX operating system; its spare is AB620-60503. Under OpenVMS the card has no boot support on either the rx2620 or the rx4640.
