JAGUAR supports the standard Perseus attenuation levels. The current attenuation level is shown on STATUSBAR
and on INFOBOX (KEY = I)
In the ARCHIVE MODE, the value is taken from the archive file header, showing the attenuation level used during recording.
You can rotate the attenuation level of the Perseus hardware by pressing ALT-P continuously: 0 (default, no attenuation) > 1 (-10 dB) > 2 (-20 dB) > 3 (-30 dB). The last used attenuation level is remembered at the next JAGUAR restart.
You can define the desired default attenuation level with the DEFAULT_ATT plugin (See SETTINGS > PLUGINS for more details):
PLUGIN ............. DEFAULT_ATT=1
You can also define different attenuation levels for scheduled daytime and nighttime recordings as described in SETTINGS > MESTOR (select the ATTENUATION template from the menu). Often, the overnight recordings are set to use the attenuation level of 1 (ATT1, -10 dB) but, in the morning, the attenuation level will be changed to the attenuation level of 0 (ATT0, no attenuation).
