4.7.7 Standard Menu
Some Hilo users prefer a simpler interface with only the essential controls being available. The Standard Menu button
toggles between Standard Mode (simplified interface) and Advanced Mode (complete interface). The default is
Advanced Mode. When Standard Menu is selected, the Hilo interface is reduced to 6 buttons and the METER selection
icon.
As soon as Standard Menu is selected, the Hilo does a Restore Defaults to return all routing and volume controls to the
default setting. This may result in the audio from a previously muted or attenuated source to come through the Hilo at
full volume.
• The Backlight button allows control of the Hilo touchscreen
appearance. See Section 4.7.1
• The About Hilo page is a status only button. This screen provides
you with the hardware information for Hilo and the LT-TB card,
including date of manufacture, hardware and software revision dates.
• The Line In and Line Out Trim buttons set the calibration level for
the Hilo Line Inputs and Line Outputs. See Section 4.4.5 and Section
4.4.6 for more information.
• The Select Source button determines which signal source, will be
streamed to ALL of the Hilo outputs. Choose between TBT Play
(play streams from the computer via the Thunderbolt connection) or
any of the other Audio inputs on the Hilo. Note: ADAT Lightpipe
I/O is not available in Standard Mode.
• The Advanced Menus button returns the Hilo touchscreen to
Advanced Mode.
• The METERS icon will return the screen to the Hilo METER
display. The three METER options are still available from the
METERs page.
If any Hilo parameters that only appear in Advanced mode have been altered, and then the Hilo was switched to
Standard Mode, the alterations will no longer be active. For instance, if the RETURN TO METERS selection was set
to “15 seconds” in Advanced Mode, when switched to Standard Mode the default state of “5 minutes” will be active.
When returning to Advanced Mode, the default will continue to be active and an alteration will have to be manually
selected.

This button simply sends you back to the last Meter page that you selected.
