S01AMDECAY>500 by 500 ms.

S01AMDECAY? Query automixer decay time.

S01AMDECAYx , where x is between 0 and 5000 depending on the current AMDECAY setting. If this command is issued after the above example, then the status message will be

S01AMDECAYx , where x is between 0 and 5000 depending on the current AMDECAY setting. If this command is issued after the above example, then the status message will

be S01AMDECAY1000

8.17. AMGATEC -- Set Automixer Gating Control Mode

This command sets the automixer gating control mode for the specified input channel. The possible modes are:

0 - normal gating

1 - microphone forced on

2 - microphone forced off

This command is a channel integer command. See Section 6.3 and Section 6.2 for more information

on this type of command. The minimum and maximum values for this command are 0 and 2, respectively.

This command is saved to non-volatile memory only as part of a preset. The state of this command will be restored after power-up only if a preset is saved and that preset is set to be the power-on preset.

Example Description

Configure microphone input 1 for S01AMGATEC10 normal gating.

Configure microphone input 1 to be S01AMGATEC11 forced on.

Configure microphone input 1 to be S01AMGATEC12 forced off.

Query current gating control mode

S01AMGATEC1? for microphone input 1.

Status Message

S01AMGATEC10

S01AMGATEC11

S01AMGATEC12

S01AMGATEC3x , where x is 0, 1, or 2

depending on the current gating control mode setting for microphone input 1.

8.18. AMGATER -- Set Automixer Gate Ratio

This command sets the automixer gate ratio (in dB) for the specified input channel. The gate ratio is the ratio of the speech power to noise power required to gate the microphone on. This value is only used if the input is set to automatic gating via the AMAUTO.
