Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a model of the TouchMonitor series. With
the TouchMonitor range you are able to meet the growing requirements in today‘s production, post-production, and broadcast world.
Equipped with high-grade 7“ or 9“ touch screens and an easy-to-use
GUI, TouchMonitor enters a new level of professional audio metering
in terms of precision, performance, effi ciency and fl exibility.

EN-9Manual | TouchMonitor TM7/TM9 Before You Begin | Introduction
Simple and fl exible
The graphical user interface used in the TouchMonitor range is controlled simply by using your fi nger 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 confi gurations,
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.
Licences
A totally modular software concept means that you only have to
purchase features that you actually require. This puts you in control,
defi ning the functionality of a TouchMonitor that suits your needs
best. New instruments and functions can be added as software
modules to the device at any time. Simply purchase and activate the
corresponding licence.
Many display functions are available to choose from: the unique RTW
Surround Sound Analyzer, the Real-Time Analyzer (RTA), EBU R128-,
ITU BS.1770-3/1771-, ATSC-A/85-, and ARIB-compliant loudness

The TouchMonitor perfectly integrates into today‘s analog and digi-
meters, and the Radar Loudness display acc. to the Loudness Radar
Meter of TC electronic®.
tal audio and video studio environments. It handles input signals of
various formats: analog, AES3, and AES3id. TouchMonitor units can
be equipped with an interface to accept 3G SDI signals (additional
option for TM9, I/O option for TM7). This interface works as an audio
deembedder for mixed use with other audio interfaces displaying additional input channels simultaneously.

Installation
The TouchMonitor TM7 and TM9 table-top units (20700/20900) are
designed for free positioning on tables, desks, et. al. All necessary
power supply voltages are supplied through the +24 V DC 1 A connector. Use with power supply model STD-2427PA, manufactured
by Adapter Technology Co Ltd. (which is the external power supply
unit RTW 1168-R wide voltage power supply, included in 20700 and
20900 packages). The units feature a 7“ resp. 9“ VGA 16 : 9 touch
screen.
Optional an external standard16 : 9 VGA monitor can be connected
for external reading of the display.
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.
• 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!
• Optionally, connect an external standard 16 : 9 VGA monitor to
the VGA output, using a standard VGA connection cable. The VGA
cable shall be of 10 to 15 m maximum length.
• Finally, connect the locking 4-pin low voltage connector of the
external 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.

Getting Started
System Start-up
Before connecting the TouchMonitor to the power supply, please
make sure, that the following connections are made according to
your unit (TM7, TMR7, TM9) and to your individual needs:
• Analog and/or digital audio input signals (depending on the hardware confi guration of your unit)
• Digital outputs (if available)
• Optional external standard 16 : 9 VGA monitor
• Optional USB mouse
• LAN/Ethernet (if needed)
• Power supply
When the TouchMonitor is connected to the power supply, it will initiate its system startup sequence. After the boot-up the unit is ready
for use.
We assume that you are starting your TouchMonitor for the fi rst time.
You now should make some global settings to adopt the unit to your
audio system. After this short procedure you can create your fi rst preset to work with.
NOTE - The fi gures in the following paragraphs may show some options that are not available on your unit. The scope of available
options depends on model (TM7, TMR7, TM9), hardware confi guration, and activated licences.

Presets are used to defi ne and edit all the specifi c settings for your work fl ow. So you can create audio groups containing a defi ned signal
source selection and one or more instruments sharing this domain and showing parameters of audio signals. Also you can create non-audio
groups containing intruments, that are not related to audio input signals, like clock, hardware status monitor, or global keyboard.
If you want to create a preset from scratch, please proceed as follows:
1. If not visible, touch the empty space of the screen to display the
control bar.
4. Touch the New button to create a new preset. A preset with an
editable default name is created (see next fi gure, touch Preset

Software Modules (Licences Handling)
EN
The TouchMonitor features a modular software concept that enables
you to add new functions and instruments to your unit at any time. The
Licences menu is used to view the licences currently installed on the
TouchMonitor and to acquire new licences. Instruments and functions
already activated are marked with an Installed sign. Instruments and
functions that are not installed have an order key. On the Licences
menu you only will fi nd licencing options that are provided for your
model and were already available at the release date of the software
version installed on the unit.
NOTE - Some licences require others to be installed fi rst before you can aquire them. Please note the corresponding information
while purchasing licences.
NOTE - The fi gures in the following paragraphs may show
licences that are not available on your unit depending on model
(TM7, TMR7, TM9), and hardware confi guration.
