It is possible to alter the meter scaling in PPM mode.
▶ Press SET.
The right-side of the 2T meter will now display a solid block of leds.
For each press of the PPM button, the scaling indicated by bright-up will
be:
• +14dB
• +18dB
• +20dB
This will set the PPM bright-up to be one bar below +14, +18, +20 to
indicate near converter clipping.
Press SET again to exit this setup mode.
PEAK
With this selected, whenever a meter peaks the topmost led will remain lit
for two seconds or until it is overwritten by a louder signal.
P/HOLD
With this selected, the metering will permanently display a single led to
show it's loudest peak until it is overwritten by a louder signal.
This can be reset by pressing the P/HOLD button again.
In this way, it is possible to play a section of music and then determine
the loudest spike on each path.
DAW
Lights red whenever the DAW button is pressed on the Control Room
Panel and indicates that the 8T meters are being fed from the DAW
metering and not the console metering.

If all power supplies to all sections of the console are healthy, then all leds
will be OFF.
