The input menu allows the user to adjust functions related to the input signals to the 
EF2211/EF2210.  This menu contains A
COUSTIC ECHO CANCELLATION, AUTOMATIC 
G
AIN CONTROL, AGC MAXIMUM, AGC MINIMUM, GAIN ADJUST, LEVEL MIC/LINE, 
M
UTE,  NOISE CANCELLATION, NOISE CANCELLATION LEVEL, PHANTOM POWER, 
R
EFERENCE ASSIGN, and AEC SUPPRESSION.  The menu is organized around the 
Inputs (1, T, A and B), so that you first select an input and then select settings for that 
input.
NOTE: Input T is the incoming phone signal.  This input is only available on the 
EF2211.
Acoustic Echo Cancellation. This allows you to enable or disable the 
acoustic echo canceller on channel 1.  The default is On.
Automatic Gain Control (Inputs 1, T). This enables automatic gain 
control (AGC) on Input 1 and T.  The default is On.
AGC Max (Inputs 1, T). Sets the maximum gain value that the AGC can 
apply for Inputs 1 and T.
AGC Min (Inputs 1, T). Sets the minimum gain value that the AGC can 
apply for Inputs 1 and T.
Gain. This parameter adjusts the gain level of the inputs.  This is normally config-
ured during the calibration process.  The default setting is 15 dB for microphone 
signals and 0 dBu for line level signals.
Level (Input 1). Use this parameter to select mic or line level on Input 1.
Mute. This selects which input channel (1, T, A, B) is muted.  The default is not 
muted.
Noise Cancellation (Inputs 1, T). This allows you to enable or disable 
noise cancellation. 
Noise Cancellation Level (Inputs 1, T). Selects the level of noise 
cancellation.  This ranges from 0 to 15 dB.  The default is 10 dB.
Phantom Power (Input 1). Use this parameter to turn phantom power 
On or Off for input 1.
Echo Canceller Reference (Input 1). This parameter decides which 
reference is associated with the input.  Choose between R
EF1 or the external bus ref-
erence.
AEC Suppression (Input 1). Sets the amount of double talk suppression 
used in the AEC.  The values correspond to the following settings: 1 = No Suppres-
sion, 2 = Light Suppression, 3 = Heavy Suppression, 4 = Half-Duplex.
Line Echo Cancellation (Input T). Enables or disables the echo can-
cellation on the phone line.
Dynamics Processing (Input T). Enables or disables compression on 
Input T.
