Limiter Suite

The I-Tech HD LevelMAX™ Limiter Suite features three types of limiting:

Peak

RMS

Transducer Thermal

and three modes of operation:

Auto

Advanced

Manual (OEM Factory Locked)

The standard i-Tech HD LevelMAX limiter panel (Advanced Mode) is shown

below:

LevelMAX has been designed to limit accurately to the specified voltage

thresholds. The addition of a thermal limiter allows thresholds for the

faster-acting RMS and peak limiters to be set higher, providing more output

and maintaining dynamic range before the onset of limiting, while protecting

the long term integrity of the transducers.

In Auto or Advanced modes, turning on the LevelMAX Limiter Suite will

enable all three limiters: Peak, RMS and Thermal.

The three LevelMAX limiter types and operating modes are outlined in the

following sections.
