Once a signal is saved in Auto mute memory (the 1st counting) , DS1 will not save the same signal for 8 hours even though it is detected again, which means it takes at least 16 hours( 1st + 2nd + 3rd) to automatically lock a signal out. The interval of 8 hours is to avoid saving too many signals in Auto mute memory.
