8. ADJUSTING MAXIMUM TAPS FOR EACH STAGE
A feature available on the MicroDAC IV is the ability to trade filter taps between stages in Mono Series
mode when one of the filters is an adaptive filter. To adjust the number of taps available, first display the
control screen for the adaptive filter in the Mono Series configuration. If the Stage Mode is Mono Series
the Adjust Maximum Size button will be displayed within the Filter Size section of the control screen
(see Figure 8-1).
Figure 8-1 Adjust Maximum Taps Button
Figure 8-2 Adjust Maximum Taps Control Screen
Clicking this button displays the window shown in Figure 8-2. This window allows the maximum of 3600
to be distributed between both Stages. This might be necessary if an adaptive filter size larger than 1800
taps is required. The minimum adaptive filter size is 16 taps. The minimum fixed filter size is 1000 taps.
Clicking the Equal Size button distributes the taps equally between both stages (1800 each). Use the
scroll bar to adjust the number of taps for each stage.
