OMPRESSOR EVELLER
Set Compressor/Leveller Read Switch Flag - Allows the host to set the value of the Compressor/Leveller Read Switch
Flag. If the flag is 0, the AS8 reads the internal compressor/leveller In/Out switch to determine whether the system
should be active. If the flag is 1, the AS8 will use the value stored in EEPROM. The new value is stored in EEPROM.
Host sends command - 26 (1A hex)
Host sends data byte: 0 or 1, where 0 = read the internal In/Out switch, 1 = use stored value
Set Compressor/Leveller In/Out Status Flag - Allows the host to set the value of the Compressor/Leveller In/Out
Status Flag. This flag is used to activate or deactivate the compressor/leveller system from the host. If the flag is 0,
the compressor/leveller system is in. If the flag is 1, the system is out. The new status flag value is stored in
EEPROM. This command is only active if the Compressor/Leveller Read Switch Flag is 1 (see "Set
Compressor/Leveller Read Switch Flag" command above).
Host sends command - 24 18 hex)
Host sends data byte: 0 or 1, where 0 = C/L system active, 1 = C/L system inactive.
Set the Compressor/Leveller Threshold - Causes the AS8 to send to the host the current threshold value for the
compressor/leveller. The threshold value ranges from 0 to 127, corresponding to -42.33dBu to 0dB threshold
values.
Host sends command - 8
Host receives 1 byte: 0-127 (0-7F hex), corresponding to -42.33dBu to 0dBu
Get Compressor/Leveller Threshold - Allows the host to set a value for the compressor/leveller threshold to be stored
in EEPROM. Input range is 0-127, which corresponds to -42.33dB to 0dB threshold. This command is only
available when the Threshold Read Flag is set to 1 (see "Set Compressor/Leveller Threshold Read Flag" command
below).
Host sends command - 9
Host sends data byte: 0-127 (0-7F hex), corresponding to -42.33dBu to 0dBu threshold.
Set Compressor/Leveller Threshold Read Flag - Allows the host to set the value of the Threshold Read Flag. If the flag
is 0, the internal threshold pot is used to establish the threshold. If the flag is 1, the stored compressor/leveller
threshold value is used (see "Input Compressor/Leveller Threshold" command above).
Host sends command - 10 (0A hex)
Host sends data byte: 0 or 1, where 0 = values from internal threshold pot, 1 = use stored value.
Get Current Compressor/Leveller Attenuation - Causes the AS8 to send to the host the current value of attenuation
associated with the compressor/leveller system. The range will be 0-60, which corresponds to 0dB to 20dB of
attenuation.
Host sends command - 23 (17 hex)
Host sends data byte: 0-60 (0-3C hex), corresponding to 0dB to 20dB attenuation.
Get Compressor/Leveller Status - Causes the AS8 to send to the host the current status (active or inactive) of the
compressor/leveller system. A returned value of 0 indicates that the system is active, while a returned value of 1
indicates that the system is inactive.
Host sends command - 30 (1E hex)
Host sends data byte: 0 = system active, 1 = system inactive.
