Setting the Input Range (RANGE) (Analog channel)
Manual
1
To select the M-RANGE (manual range setting) mode, press the RANGE key.
2
Press the
;
or
:
key to select the channel.
3
Press the
8
or
9
key to select one of the input ranges below:
The left and right arrows in the table below indicate the direction of change when the key
is pressed.
Note
For example, the 20 V range is the range where the bar meter scale is ±100% or 0 dB when
the input voltage is +20 Vpk, –20 Vpk, or ±20 Vpk. The same applies to other values.
Automatic (After setting to E-E or REC-PAUSE mode)
1
To select the A-RANGE (automatic range setting) mode, press the SHIFT key and then
the RANGE key.
2
The peak value of the input level for each channel is automatically detected and held.
The relationship between the input levels and setting ranges are as shown below.
3
Press the RANGE key once after the barmeter shakes, is set the input ranges for all
channels corresponding to the last peak values being held.
