should
be
able

get
a

about
100

with
a
gain
of
about
350

and
noise
of
less
than
20
mV

Detection
1.
In
the
Detect
oscillation
section
of
the
TEVC
tab,
you
can
choose
to
Reduce
gain
in
50%
steps
or
Set
Gain
to
minimum
.

3.
Increase
the

until
the

oscillates.
The
following
message
will
appear
when
an

detected.
This
will
typically
happen
at
gains
between
1000
and
2000
in
TEVC
mode.
