Premium PPM and Vectorscope
Still better measuring with special scales and audio vectorscope: Premium PPM and Vectorscope
Expands the basic 4-channel PPM with additional scales, moving coil instruments and 2-channel audio vectorscope
The Premium PPM and Vectorscope license expands the Basic 4-channel PPM (standard software) with additional scales (Zoom, SMPTE, NHK, ARD+9, et al.), additional display modes (segment, classic), and PPM/VU moving coil instruments with different scales and functions. It also provides up to four 2-channel Audio Vectorscopes and a separate phase meter.
With Multichannel Mode license (SW20001) installed, the Multichannel PPM is also extended with the functions of the Premium PPM. Then, the Multi-Correlator with up to 10 phase meters is available.
Premium-PPM
Like the Basic or the Multichannel PPM, the Premium PPM provides vertical or horizontal bargraph displays for the individual channels of the active signal source. It expands its range with scales for special applications (like ARD+9 for broadcasters) or standards (like SMPTE or NHK).
Beside the common "Solid" view (see Basic PPM), a segmented view or the simulation of the gas plasma display included in the former RTW Peakmeters can be selected.

Like the Basic PPM or the Multichannel PPM, the Premium PPM also provides vertical or horizontal bargraph displays for the individual channels of the active signal source. But it expands its range with scales for special applications (like ARD9 for broadcasters) or standards (like SMPTE or NHK).
Additionally, the user can select the bargraph view. Beside the common "Solid" view (see Basic PPM), a segmented view or the simulation of the gas plasma display included in the former RTW Peakmeters can be selected.
The example also shows some of the available function keys, being displayed in the Control Bar for the selected PPM. These keys can also be placed as a separate onscreen keyboard.
Moving Coil instrument as horizontal PPM stereo (above) and VU stereo display (below)
Combined PPM and Loudness display, when SW20002 is additionally activated
Vertical stereo display with loudness scale, when SW20002 is additionally activated
In 2-channel stereo mode, the Moving Coil instrument can be selected insteed of the PPM. It provides several scales and setting opitons. The selectable PPM (British) or VU displays can be shown as single or combined, vertical or horizontal instruments.
With activated Loudness and SPL Display license (SW20002), also a display with Loudness scales or a combined PPM and Loudness display (BBC mode) are available.
