TouchMonitor Help | Display Mode - Loud. Recal. (Loudness Recalculation)

In display mode, the TouchMonitor shows the instruments and their layout defined in the currently loaded preset.

Touching the screen area of an instrument will put this instrument into focus. This is recognized by a colored frame instead of a grey one. The frame color conforms to the identifier set for the group the focused instrument belongs to.

The Control Bar positioned at the lower screen edge contains several keys. It is displayed permanently if the "Control Bar" option in the "General" section of the "System" menu is set to "permanent". Otherwise, it will be displayed temporarily after touching the screen.

The Control Bar has two sections. The left (upper) section shows the specific keys defined for the focused instrument. This makes it very fast to access a specific function of one of the instruments on screen – just touch the instrument and select the desired function.

The specific keys that are displayed in the left (upper) Control Bar section can be defined individually for each instrument. To do this, touch the "Edit Instrument" key and select the "Configure Keys" option in the menu. The default value for each key can be set in the menu as well.

The Loud. Recal. instrument is only available with a Timecode Reader licence (SW20008) activated. Then, the loudness measurement can be controlled by a timecode either with recalculation or without. The Loud. Recal. instrument displays start and end time and the current timecode or only the timecode, especially when interacting with the Loudness Chart instrument. An audio group running in Timecode mode has to be applied before. To use the recalculation option, the Loud. Recal. instrument has to be in the audio group including one of the loudness instruments.

With the option of continuous recalculation, the updated I value is directly available without the need of a complete passage through the program after corrections on overdriven program spots have been done. The timecode display located between start and end time display uses colors to signalize its current state: a green-colored timecode means normal data collection, a running recalculation is signalized in yellow, and red is used to alert a timecode running out of the collected time range. The Loudness Chart instrument used to show the course of and to analyse loudness measurements is an ideal addition.

The Loud. Recal. instrument cannot be used with the Radar instrument in parallel in the same audio group.

On TMR7-Radio and TMR7-Mount some functions are limited or not available.

Control Bar - left (upper) section: Loud. Recal. instrument functions

The right (lower) section of the Control Bar always contains the following four keys:

This key is used to directly access the menu parameters of the focused instrument. Any edits in the menu are saved to the current preset using the "Save" key.

This key is used to load one of the presets stored in the unit’s internal memory or on an USB storage medium connected to one of the USB ports.

This key is used to enter the Main Menu. This is the starting point for global system configuration, licence handling and preset management.

This key is used to enter the onscreen help for normal display mode (this text). Depending on the focused instrument, the help page will also describe the individual keys of this instrument.
