Before You Begin
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a TouchMonitor TMR7-Radio resp. TMR7-
Mount. Loudness, true peak, PPM, audio vectorscope, moving-coil
instruments, RTA, chart, and correlation: The TMR7-Radio and TMR7-
Mount 4-channel solution featuring 7“ touchscreen and the unique
TouchMonitor operating concept integrate all metering options requi-
red in radio broadcasting to a solution made to measure.

EN-9Manual | TouchMonitor TMR7 Smart Before You Begin | Introduction
EN
Simple and flexible
The graphical user interface used in the TouchMonitor range is con-
trolled simply by using your finger or a mouse. Instruments can be
scaled, randomly positioned and combined in almost every way for
optimized use of available screen space. Even multiple instruments of
the same type, assigned to different input channels and configurations,
can be displayed simultaneously. A context-sensitive, on-screen help
feature and the intuitive operatable menu system supports the user,
allowing him to make setup changes with ease.
Audio I/O interface
TMR7-Radio‘s resp. TMR7-Mount‘s hardware and software are per-
fectly adjusted to radio-broadcast requirements and easily integrates
into any studio environments. The four audio inputs provided by the two
AES3 XLR ports are flexibly configurable for mono, stereo, or multi-
channel sources, providing separate instruments for each source. So
TMR7 allows parallel monitoring of the on-air signal and a PFL source.
Integrated Software
With the integrated software package, TMR7-Radio and TMR7-
Mount are fully equipped and ready for use. The comprehensive set
of frequently used instruments provides all relevant loudness and
audio metering tools to meet the demands.
Many display functions are available to choose from: loudness meters
compliant to all relevant loudness standards including Loudness Sum,
numerical displays, Loudness Range, and Loudness Chart, Audio
Vectorscope, Real-Time Analyzer (RTA), Stereo Correlator, and Moving
Coil instruments.

Installation
The TouchMonitor TMR7-Radio table-top unit is designed for free
positioning on tables, desks, et. al. The panel-mount version TMR7-
Mount is designed for panel-mounting e. g. into mixing consoles. All
necessary power supply voltages are supplied through the +24 V DC
- 1 A connector. Use with power supply model ATS 065T-P/A240,
manufactured by Adapter Technology Co Ltd. (which is the external
power supply unit RTW 1178-R wide voltage power supply, included
in TMR7-Radio package, optional for TMR7-Mount). The units fea-
ture a 7“ VGA 16 : 9 touch screen.
Optional an external computer mouse or a Wacom® graphics tablet
can be connected to one of the USB interfaces.
The other ports and interfaces are connected with the appropriate
standard connection cables.
ATTENTION – Please read before installing:
• Before installing the unit please study the safety instructions and
the information on connection and pin assignment.
• An external overcurrent protective device (2 A max.) shall be
installed when using an external 24 V DC power supply!
• Make sure that the delivered power supply unit is not connected.
• Place or mount the unit at a suited place.
• Connect your signal sources and all your other components to the
appropriate connectors, using the correct standard connection
cables for the components. Take care about the pin assignment!
• Finally, connect the locking 4-pin low voltage connector of the ex-
ternal power supply to the +24 V DC - 1 A connector on the rear.
Connect the external power supply to mains.
• The TouchMonitor will initiate its system startup sequence. After
the boot-up the unit is ready for use.
