140 ARTEMIS Digital Broadcast Production Console Metering
TFT METERS
The Artemis TFT meter layouts are
user customised in several ways.
Fig 1 shows an example layout of a
configured TFT meter. The TFT is divided
up into a number of ‘cells’. Each can be
one of a number of sizes, and can display
mono, stereo or surround meters with or
without dynamics information.
Meter Cells
Each TFT meter is divided up into four
vertical sections, marked in Fig 2 as
I, II, III and IV. Each of these sections can
display from one to three meters in the
horizontal space, and one, two or three
meters in the vertical space. This provides
a maximum of three rows of twelve meters
on each TFT, 36 meter cells.
Vertically arranged cells can be combined
to create taller meters of half, two thirds or
the full height of the screen.
A vast range of meter cell designs can
be created, but some arrangements have
specific advantages. For example, using
2 meter cells across the width of each
vertical section will give 8 meters across
the TFT screen. This allows meters to
line up with the faders on the fader panel
below.
Meter Grid Configuration
Select >Show Settings>Meter Layout,
from the buttons on the left hand side.
The Meter Setup screen shows thumbnail
images of all available TFT panels in a
column down the left hand side of the
screen. Touch to select the TFT panel to
edit and the main screen grid is populated
with the settings for this panel.
The buttons along the top of the main
meter setup window allow control of the
configuration. Selecting the ‘Grid’ tab
subdivides the window to show the current
layout see Fig 3.
