MEQ-2000 24/96 Multimode Equalizer
RTA MODE Screen
Pressing the
MODE key accesses the RTA MODE screen, which allows for global setups for
the RTA module.
In this screen, parameters are selected with the and cursor keys and adjusted
with the parameter wheel. After every change, ENTER appears at the F5 key, and must
be pressed to confirm the change. Default settings can be selected with the F1 ( DEF )
key. Pressing the F6 ( EXIT ) key returns to the RTA screen.
If the MEQ-2000 is in measurement mode ( ME-1 or ME-2 ), GREF ( GEQ Reference) appears
over the F3 soft key. Pressing this key stores the current spectral envelope as a weighting
reference for the GEQ module in RE-1 , RE-2 , MA-1 and MA-2 modes.
Global parameters available in the
RTA MODE screen are:
BEAMS switches the spectral display beams ON or OFF. OFF displays only the
spectral envelope.
DECAY adjusts the fall-back time for the beams display, over a range of 500 to
5000ms, in 10 ms steps.
RMS-IT selects the integration time for RMS level measurement, over a range of
10ms to 20min in 16 increments. Typical RTA function utilizes a 50ms
integration time; use very long integration times for room characteristic
measurements.
SOURCE selects the spectrum analyzer’s source, between the input or output
stages. It allows for a comparison of the signal spectrum before and after
processing.
In measurement modes ( ME-x ), the spectrum analyzer input is
permanently connected to the input ( ME-1 ) or the output ( ME-2 ),
therefore a dashed line - - - appears in this field.
PEAKHOLD activates the peak hold function.
P-HOLD adjusts the hold time, over a range of 50 to 5000ms in 10ms steps. An
INFINITY setting, which holds peaks indefinitely, is also available.
P-DECAY adjusts the decay time, over a range of 50 to 5000ms in 10ms steps.
Default values are ON, 1s, 50ms, INPUT ( - - - ), ON, 2000ms, 2000ms.
