D/A Meters 

Sub-Menu (Meters)

 

The D/A meters page will display a VU meter for each D/A output available. If you have 1 x D/A module 
you will see 8 VU meters, if you have 2 x D/A modules you will see 16 VU meters, so one for each physical 
output. 

 

Input Levels 

Sub-Menu (Meters)

 

The Input Meters page will display the input metering of the modules present in the Hapi. A metering 
view of one Led per input channel is represented in this page. 
 

 

 
 

LED indications:  

 Peak indication 

 

 

 

Alignment range 

 

 

 

Signal indicator 

 

                                      

 

 
 

 

 

The LEDs indicate the inputs levels of the AD1 inputs 1 to 8  
Note: You can reset a module Peak by pressing the Rotary Control. In the 
example above pressing A/D 1(8ch) will reset the peak displayed on the input 1 
This led view ledged also applies to the DA view. 
 

Output Levels 

Sub-Menu (Meters)

 

The Output Meters page will display the Output metering of the modules present in the Hapi. A 
metering view of one Led per output channel is represented in this page.
