Scroll through the options to enable or disable the noisegate and use the enter function to
select the required state. The main noisegate menu will be redisplayed.
5) Select the level entry to display the partyline level setup menu.
Figure 6-39 Partyline noisegate trigger level
The vertical bar indicates the noisegate trigger level. Turning the setup encoder clockwise
increases the noisegate level (towards the maximum -10dB) and turning it counter clockwise
reduces the noisegate level (towards -70dB). The horizontal bar indicates the current input
audio level in real-time to assist in setting the noisegate level.
6) Select the ‘DELAY’ option on the noisegate menu to set the VOX off delay level. This
allows the operator to set a delay in milliseconds before audio is cut by the noisegate.
Figure 6-40 VOX delay setup
The VOX delay can be set to values between 50ms and 5000ms in 50ms steps. Turn the
Setup encoder clockwise to increase the delay and anticlockwise to reduce the delay.
6.15.3 To configure the levels for a partyline port
The Levels menu allows Input, Output and nulling levels to be set for a partyline.
1) Select the partyline port and then select ‘LEVELS’ from the partyline menu to display
the levels menu.
