From the

You can set OPTIMOD-PC’s audio bandwidth in two places:
(1) in
C
ONFIGURATION
,
and (2) in the
B
ASIC
M
ODIFY
screen. OPTIMOD-PC’s
bandwidth is always the
lowest
of these settings. The frequency in Setup
is a technical parameter that determines the
highest
bandwidth avail-
able. The installing engineer should set it to be appropriate for the sam-
ple rate of the digital system that OPTIMOD-PC is driving. For example, if
OPTIMOD-PC is driving a system with a 32 kHz sample rate, set the
M
AX
L
OWPASS
F
ILTER
cutoff frequency to 15.0 kHz. That way, a setting of 20
kHz elsewhere will not cause excessive bandwidth and aliasing because
OPTIMOD-PC will automatically override it with the
M
AX
L
OWPASS
F
ILTER
cutoff frequency setting.
