2.1.12 Ext Amp Gain
Compensates for external gain/loss. The function is similar to the Ref Lvl Offset function,
however the value is considered, along with the maximum mixer level setting, to
determine the attenuation required (10 dB of Attenuation is added for every 10 dB of
External Amp Gain). The gain is subtracted from the amplitude readout so that the
displayed signal level represents the signal level at the input of the external device.
Gains may only be entered with the numeric keypad or programming commands, not the
knob or step keys.
