Minutes per dB specifies the number of minutes it will take to change attenuation by 1 dB.
Example: Assume the following.
Attenuation setting for 5 PM to 8 AM is -6 dB. Attenuation setting for 8 AM to 5 PM is 0 dB.
The Min / dB setting for the same time period is 5 minutes. Also assume that the time
of day is 8:00 AM. This means that at 8:05 AM, attenuation will change to -5 dB. 8:10 AM,
attenuation will change to -4 dB. 8:15 AM, attenuation will change to -3 dB. 8:20 AM, atten-
uation will change to -2 dB. 8:25 AM, attenuation will change to -1 dB. And finally at 8:30
AM, attenuation will change to 0 dB. Attenuation will remain at 0 dB level until 5:00 PM. 5:05
PM, attenuation will change to -1 dB. 5:10 PM, attenuation will change to -2 dB. 5:15 PM,
attenuation will change to -3 dB. 5:20 PM, attenuation will change to -4 dB. 5:25 PM,
attenuation will change to -5 dB. And finally at 5:30 PM, attenuation will change to -6 dB.
Attenuation will remain at -6 dB level until a difference in dB level setting is encountered
the following day.
