Audio Meters
A large audio VU meter is available to display the level for the Ki Pro Ultra 12G's
headphone audio. This meter can be shown or hidden by pressing the front panel
Display button. You can select which audio channel pair to display, from the up to
16 channels supported, which is indicated by the CH numbers shown below the
meter.
In Multi Channel mode you can also display smaller audio meters for the first two
channels of each recording channel, by pressing the front panel Display button.

Transport Mode (default)
Transport mode is the default mode for Ki Pro Ultra 12G. Transport functions
are always functional except during some basic configuration operations as
noted below. When you power up Ki Pro Ultra 12G, the first level overlay display
will provide information for any clip that previously was recorded and it can be
played.
The display shows settings you’ve made in the Media menus. You’ll always know
you are in Transport mode when the MENU buttons (STATUS, CONFIG, or MEDIA)
are not highlighted —if one is highlighted, then you are in that menu.
When in the Idle mode (not playing or recording), you can access the Config and
Media set-up menus to adjust various parameters that determine Ki Pro Ultra 12G
operation.
Note that you must be in STOP, not PAUSE (Stop button flashing) to access these
menus—if you try to access these menus without first having stopped playback, a
“PRESS STOP” prompt will appear on the LCD display.
There are certain times when transport controls are locked out. For example,
when ejecting media, or entering an IP address, the transport controls are locked
out until the operation is completed. Most other menu functions do not lock out
the transport controls.
At any time you only need to hit any transport button to exit (or “exit” a Status,
Config, or Media menu by pushing its button). Pressing a transport button sends
the display into the Transport default menu.
