1 to 18 dB. 

Q01AMOFFAT118

Q01AMOFFAT1?

Query current off attenuation for 

automixer 1. 

Q01AMOFFAT1x

, where 

x

 is between

AMPRIOR

 -- Set Gating Priority for the Specified Mic

This command sets the automixer gating priority for the specified input channel. Priority levels of 1-4 

are allowed with 1 being the highest priority and 4 being the lowest. 

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 1 and 4, 

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.

AMREFB

 -- Set Automixer Reference Bias for the 

Specified Automixer

This command sets or queries the reference bias for the automixer reference mode feature of the 

specified automixer. When enabled, the automixer reference feature uses the AEC reference to 

prevent local microphones from gating on audio from the remote side. The 

AMREFE

 command 

controls the enabled status of this feature. The 

AMREFB

 command can be used to bias the AEC 

reference signal to make the automixer even less likely to gate on remote audio. 

The first argument in this command specifies the automixer number (always 1 on the EF2210) and 

the second argument specifies the reference bias in dB. 

Even though this is a channel integer command, use of the wildcard character for the automixer
