Hi Steve, On the front Console panel select CUSTOM and that will un-grey the options on SETUP --> DSP --> AGC settings. ------------------------------------------------------ AGC (PDF page 95-96 of the 1.8.0 manual) The settings control the AGC Custom setting on the front panel. Slope (dB): Slope changes the rate at which gain increases with decreased signal. If you have the Slope set to 10 dB and the signal gets weaker by 1 dB, the gain will be increase by 10 dB. The increase is still limited by max gain. This provides different decay action in the AGC. Attack is unaffected. 0dB is default, 10 dB is maximum.
Max/Neg Gain (dB): The maximum (or minimum) amount of gain the system is allowed to apply. When receiving (AGC), this can be used to minimize ambient noise that may cause listening fatigue. Attack (ms): This sets the time constant for the attack for the AGC. Note that in order for this and the two controls below it to be enabled, the AGC control on the front panel must be set to Custom. Decay (ms): This sets the time constant for the decay for the AGC. When a signal gets weaker, this determines how quickly the AGC will respond to the need for increased gain. Hang (ms): To keep the AGC system from doing too much up/down, an adjustable hang time is provided. After this time has expired, the Decay will then determine how quickly the AGC gain recovers. Hang Threshold: The hang will NOT occur if the signal is weaker than this threshold. Fixed Gain: When you choose Fixed AGC on the front panel, this number is used to amplify the signal. ------------------------------------------------------ Steve Kirk (KW5TX) wrote: > Under AGC...the Attack, Decay and Hang are greyed out on mine...how can > I gain access (ie adjust the AGC) also what is a definition of the "slope" > thanks > steve > kw5tx > -- Flex-Radio Customer Support (1-512-250-8595) --------------------------- The answer to your question can be found in the wonderful new Knowledge Base Please use it frequently http://kb.flex-radio.com/ _______________________________________________ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archive Link: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ FlexRadio Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/ FlexRadio Knowledge Base: http://kb.flex-radio.com/
