Main Limits Menu

This menu page is used to set thresholds according to legal regulations or the requirements of current loudness standards for example.
Maximum values can be set for TruePeak, Momentary, Shortterm, and Integrated. For Integrated both a minimum and maximum value can be defined. When collecting data with the LQL PC software, exceedings of the main limits can be indicated and logged.

  

Please note:
The thresholds set with the Main Limits menu represent individual marks to be helpful for monitoring and potential correcting of a running program. They don't limit or process the actual measurements of TPmax, Mmax, Smax, and Integrated at all.
