SRM Setup Mode | 

Copyright © P Squared  Ltd 2013

 

 

Restore Factory Defaults 

If you need to return your SRM back to its factory defaults, please follow the follow procedure. 

1.

 

Unplug the SRM. 

2.

 

Ensure all faders are closed. 

3.

 

Hold MONITOR REC and MONITOR AUTO PREFADE and PRESENTER AUTO PREFADE and 
GUEST AUTO PREFADE buttons all at the same time. 

4.

 

Plug the power back in. 

A single meter sweep indicates cycle started – buttons can be released at this stage. A dual meter 
sweep indicates cycle complete. 

Change LED Meter Between PPM & VU Modes 

The LED Meters can be switched to display in PPM or VU modes with PPM set as the default. In PPM 
mode, the display shows an average volume of a short time period so the display is more consistent 
and easier to work with. In VU mode the display shows all volume peaks and so is more accurate but 
also more erratic. We recommend sticking with PPM mode. 

If you do want to switch between PPM and VU modes for the LED Meter, use the following 
procedure: 

1.

 

Ensure all the faders are closed. 

2.

 

Hold MONITOR PGM button and Press MONITOR BROADCAST LISTEN button. 

3.

 

The LED Meter mode will toggle between PPM and VU modes. 

 

 

The current mode is displayed via the PPM or VU LED to the right of the main LED Meter display.
