8.2 Adjusting Volume

Using BCS Commands

You can use BCS commands with an external controller that connects to

the serial connector on the Modula CPU.

Adjusting the Volume can be done using any of following three methods:

Absolute – adjusts the Volume to a specific decibel level

Relative – increases the Volume a specific decibel amount

Increment/Decrement – increases or decreases the Volume a step

Note: Volume adjustments are made on an audio level and will remain

in effect if you then switch the output(s) on an audio follow video level.

Adjusting Volume – Absolute Method

You can use the Absolute method to adjust the Volume of a destination

signal to a specific decibel level that is defined in relationship to the

output level.

To adjust Volume using the Absolute method, enter the command

using the specified command line format below (where “#” represents

any valid audio level or destination number, and “^^^” represents the

specific decibel level you want). The decibel level is specified as a

decimal number to the tenth place without the decimal marker; for

example, enter 100 for a decibel level of +10.0 or enter –35 for a decibel

level of –3.5.

Note: The decimal number must fall within the adjustment range

available for the specific type of audio board that has been selected for

adjustment (see Appendix B, “Product Specifications”).
