CHAPTER 4: Features and Screens
Introduction
This chapter describes the screens and major features of the AMP2-16V Series
monitors.
Main Screen
The AMP2-16V includes two high resolution LCD screens. This makes it easy to view
video, metadata, and meters from a greater range of positions. The content of each
screen is fully configurable. (See
for
details.) Audio monitoring and control functions center around the Main Screen. It
contains metering for up to 16 audio channels (8 channel pairs) and labeling for the
hot keys, which allow the operator to quickly control system behavior. The usage of
each channel is displayed as left, right, or bidirectional arrows above each channel
meter to indicate left, right, or center audio monitoring. As a channel cluster is
selected for listening, its arrow indicators brighten. Refer to
Inputs I Want to Hear in the Speakers?

Cut, presence of Dolby decoding, and various other informative message to the
operator. The footer at the bottom of the screen indicates the calculated the
Loudness as measured over the selected Loudness Window on the selected audio
