Go to Audio Settings. Under Audio signal processing enable AVC Advanced Settings:
- Enable AVC: Check the box to enable automatic volume control. Volume is adjusted according to the ambient noise level. The AVC will perform better if the loudspeaker volume is set to a fairly low level, as this will give the AVC a more dynamic range for adjustments. Note that the AVC adjustment is disabled while the speaker is playing audio. Adjustments are made in silent periods (min. 100 ms silence required).
- Debug in Display: When enabled the station shows current volume level in the OLED display (applicable to TCIS-4, TCIx-5 and TCIx-6 stations)
- AVC Advanced Settings: Check to open for more advanced AVC settings
- Lower Threshold: Threshold level for the AVC to start working. Valid range: 30-80 dBA. Default is 55 dBA.
- Upper Threshold: Threshold level for the AVC to stop working. Valid range: 60-120 dBA. Default is 100 dBA.
- Attack Rate: How quickly the AVC adjusts gain on raising ambient audio level. Range: 1..100 dBA/sec. Default is 10 dBA/sec.
- Decay Rate: How quickly the AVC adjusts gain on falling ambient audio level. Range: 1..100 dBA/sec. Default is 10 dBA/sec.
- Hysteresis: Hysteresis around previous set ambient audio level before doing adjustments. Range: 1..10 dBA/sec. Default is 3 dBA.
- Far-End Lockout Time: When playing audio in AVC zone (far-end-signal) AVC adjustments are locked. When there is a pause in the far-end-signal, adjustment commences after this lockout-time. Range: 1..100. Resolution is 100 ms. Default is "1" (= 100 ms).
