14 Operation
Normal (3-Second Peak Hold)
Normal operation (peak hold functions disabled) is provided at the center
position of the toggle switch, or through jumpering as described in Section
4 of this book. In this mode, the highest peak is held for a period of three
seconds before resetting.
Indefinite Peak Hold
Indefinite peak hold retains the highest peak that has occurred for and
indefinite period while constantly resampling. The peak is cleared by
switching the toggle switch to normal, then back to the indefinite peak hold
position.
This function is particularly useful for unattended operation where, for
example, an engineer wishes to record the highest audio peak occurring at a
remote transmitter site, etc.
Peak Hold Disabled
In this mode, peaks are displayed as they occur in real time and are not held.
