Manual/Auto: Automatic activation is defeated in the
Manual position. In Manual mode, the AMS8100 functions as a
standard 8x1 mixer.
Last Mic Lock-On: Last Mic Lock-On feature keeps the
most recently activated microphone turned on until a newly ac-
tivated microphone takes its place. When defeated, micro-
phones turn off after their preset hold time.
Hold Time: Adjusts the time an activated microphone
(which is not locked on) remains on after the talker stops talk-
ing. Settings are 0.4 seconds or 1.0 second.
