Controls the AUX input level, which is bussed directly to the output. Aux signal bypasses gain riding.
Sets the relative amount of gain maintained above the ambient level. Range is 1 dB to 24 dB of gain.
Sets the speed by which gain is increased/decreased to the signal once the ambient noise level is
above/below the threshold, from less than 1 dB/s (slow) to greater than 20 dB/s (fast).
Sets the maximum amount of gain. Range is 1 dB to 22 dB of gain.
Activity threshold is set just above typical operating level of the program material applied to the gain
processing stage of the ANS501.Ambient threshold adjusts the ambient noise input threshold from 64
dBspl to 112 dBspl.
The Mode switch can be set to "Run" (for normal operation) or "Set"(for set up).
Bi-color LED illuminates when different thresholds are triggered to assist in setup.
Green indicates "+" gain. Amber indicates "-" gain.
Green LED that illuminates when power is present.
