the positive and negative peaks of the input signal.
The minimum frequency at which auto-leveling can occur is set as shown.
Slow
sets the minimum frequency for auto-leveling at 50 Hz.
Fast

minimum frequency for auto-leveling at 10 kHz.
Refer to “Threshold Level and Sensitivity” in Chapter 4 for additional
information on using auto-level.
