Processing Measurement Data in Excel

Processing Measurement Data In Excel

The Qualis Audio Sentinel makes examining log data very
easy, giving complete access to all measurements through the
same user interface used for real time measurements.
Occasionally there may be a need to make specialized
measurements from log data or to compare data taken at
different times on different material or channels. The log data
for the Qualis Audio Sentinel is stored in binary files. This
allows very compact storage, enabling a full day of
measurements to fit in approximately 14 MB. The Sentinel
user interface includes an export data function which saves a
selected segment of the log data in a human readable format.
This document describes the elements including their formats
so they may be used for whatever application is required. It
includes an Excel import filter and a spreadsheet which
implements the steps required to get values which may be
manipulated with user created functions.
The time is always GMT with no adjustment for daylight

savings time. Hence, this time corresponds to 3:22:10 PM,
DST on the west coast of the US.
File Format Versions
Subsequent lines are the successive rows of data in the table.

Each line contains the measurement data at specific date and
time. The date and time are the first entry in every line after
the header. The first data line is longer than all the rest since it
includes the settings used when the data was measured. The
header line contains the same number of entries as the first
data line since it contains the variable name for each setting.
The format documented here is used for the Sentinel version

1.32 software. Earlier versions supported only eight channels
so some of the measurements described here would be
missing. It is possible that future versions of Sentinel software
will provide additional data or may not provide some of the
data documented here. Consequently it is advisable to verify
compatibility whenever a new release of software is installed.
Exported Log Data Files

The Export Log Data function converts a selected section of
the log data from binary format to ASCII data.
Each
measurement value is represented numerically and
neighboring entries in the file are separated by commas.
These are referred to as comma separated value (.csv) format
files and are a standard format usable by Microsoft Excel and
many other programs.
Unless a specific file name is given, the Qualis Audio software
will assign a file name when the data is exported. The first 6
characters are the instrument serial number, the next 14 are
the segment start date and time. The two portions are
separated by a hyphen. This gives:
SN-YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.csv
As an example, consider the following file name.
File Structure
The CSV file consists of multiple lines of data, each line
terminated by the file systems line terminator (CR+LF in
Windows). Data elements within a line are separated by
commas. The first line in the file is not log data, it is the
variable name of the corresponding data in subsequent lines.
If the lines are viewed as rows in a table, the first line is the
column headings. If a new version of Sentinel software is
installed it is advisable to verify that the heading format
generated by the new software matches your spreadsheet
columns.
As illustrated in Figure 1, data lines, after the first, are one of

two different lengths. The longer ones contain entries for all
measurements and occur approximately every 1.4 seconds.
The shorter ones occur every 0.1 seconds and only include
loudness data. The higher data rate is necessary to allow ITU
BS-1770 compliant measurements from log data.
File Format Details

A table of all measurement data fields is given at the end of
this Technical Note. It comprises three columns, the Label, a
Sample Value and the Description. The Label is the text which
appears in the first line of the CSV file. The Sample Value is
included to indicate the format of the data entry. The
Description gives the common name for the reading and basic
scaling or bit definition information where appropriate.
The table is divided into sections, beginning with the time
information, both clock time and time code. The first entry is
the real time clock-calendar, which includes both date and
time, to 0.1 s resolution. The second is the linear time code
value which is only time and has 0.1 s resolution.

The second section is the real time loudness data which is
stored at 0.1 s intervals. The readings are in LKFS (identical to
LUFS). There are two sets of data, one for the primary
(surround) input and one for the secondary (selected ancillary
or downmix) input. Each set contains the raw loudness,
momentary loudness and short-term loudness. The raw data
is non-overlapping 100 ms blocks. The momentary loudness is
400 ms blocks which overlap by 75%, as specified in EBU
R128. The short-term loudness is overlapping 3 second blocks
which are updated every 0.1 second.
to 16 kHz. The next entry is the LFE downmix compatibility.

All the downmix compatibility measurements are in dB. For a
detailed explanation of these measurements see Qualis Audio
Tech Note #5, Quantitative Assessment of Surround
Compatibility.
The next section is general reading data. The first four entries
are flags which describe the operation of the loudness meters.
The first (loud_new0) indicates that the integrated loudness
value appearing later in the record is a final value (immediately
before the meter was reset). The next indicates whether this
value represents a program or commercial. The third flag
indicates whether the real time loudness readings represent a
program or commercial. The last is asserted when the
loudness meters are reset. A detailed description of the
program / commercial stream measurement architecture can
be found in Qualis Audio Technical Note #1, Loudness
Measurements and the CALM Act.
The interchannel correlation of each ancillary pair is next.

These readings range from 0 to 7 with 0 representing an
antiphase condition and 7 representing perfectly correlated
channels.
The next 20 entries are true peak meter readings for the
surround, ancillary and downmix channels. These are in
dBFS. The next 8 readings represent normalized surround
channel loudness. The loudest channel is determined and
used as a reference. Its loudness is set to 0. The loudness of
all other surround channels is expressed relative to this
reference.
The next 16 entries are the error flags for the surround and
ancillary channels. These error flags are combined into a
single integer using the bit weights given in the table. For
example, the simultaneous occurrence of a hum error and an
underlevel error would result in a value of 40.
The next 20 entries are the level meter readings for the
surround, ancillary and downmix channels. These are in
dBFS.
The next 9 entries are the mono spectrum for the 9 octave
bands from 63 Hz to 16 kHz. The following entry is the LFE
channel bandwidth in Hz. This is the frequency below which
90% of the LFE channels energy is contained.
The following entry is the downmix differential, the difference

between loudness after downmixing a surround program to
stereo and the loudness when measured in surround. For
more information on this measurement see Qualis Audio Tech
Note #4, Loudness Variation When Downmixing.
The following reading is the center front loudness balance, the
loudness of the center front channel relative to the other
channels in the surround program. Immediately after it is a flag
which indicates whether the center front balance reading is
suspended for inadequate signal level.
The next 7 entries represent the voltages on the six Auxiliary
DC inputs and the internal temperature. The DC voltage
readings are scaled such that each count represents 10 mV.
The 7 entries following are the corresponding error flags. An
eighth error flag indicates a missing or corrupted linear time
code signal.
After two reserved values are the two integrated loudness
readings, one for the primary stream and one for the
secondary stream. These readings are computed over the
range defined by the loudness meter control lines. If these
readings are the final values which occur immediately before a
new integrated measurement cycle the flag (loud_new0) will
asserted.
The following 27 entries are the left, right and mono downmix
compatibility measurements for the 9 octave bands from 63 Hz

module slots. These can be decoded with the table below:

The following 8 entries are error flags determined by

measurements of channel balance, LFE bandwidth and
downmix compatibility. Next are the 4 alarm outputs and two
more error flags.
The next entry is a flag which identifies the whether the main
program is currently in surround or stereo.
The following 4 values represent the upper and lower ends of
the loudness range for both the main and secondary loudness
meters. The next two values are the maximum momentary
loudness for both the main and secondary meter. After this are
10 error flags and the two true-peak values corresponding to
the two integrated loudness readings. The loudness range,
maximum momentary and true peak readings are all computed
over the range defined by the loudness meter control lines.
The next sections include measurements of interface
characteristics and metadata from the interfaces. Many of
these are based on a scheme where a flag identifies whether a
particular metadata value applies to a given interface or
channel. Multiple flags may be asserted simultaneously
indicating that the value is the same for all of the flagged
channels. For example, the next block of entries is a set of 16
flags and a measured word length value. If the first four flags
are asserted and the word length value is 20 it means that
those 4 channels are all 20 bit. A later log data entry might
have the next four flags asserted (with the first four at 0) and
the word length value at 16. This would mean that those four
channels have 16 active bits.
The next five entries document the SDI interface parameters.
The interface metadata is divided into four groups which have
been identified by different colors in the table. The group in
yellow consists of 16 flags and a value representing the
sample count specified in AES-3. If the respective flag is
asserted the sample count value applies to that channel of the
interface. Similarly, the orange group represents the time of
day count of the AES-3 standard. The general AES-3 status
bits are grouped and indexed by a set of 16 flags, all of which
are shaded green in the table. Finally, the source and
Page 3 of 6
destination metadata of the AES-3 interface are grouped with

16 flags and shaded blue.
The next 8 entries are the error flags for the interfaces carrying
the 8 channel pairs. These error flags are combined into a
single integer using the bit weights given in the table. The 16
values following represent errors determined from each input
channel. The flags are similarly combined using the bit
weights given in the table. The next seven error flags
represent cross channel testing of metadata and measured
data. These are followed by a flag which is asserted when a
Dolby bitstream error occurs, a flag which is asserted when the
metadata dialnorm value does not match the specified target
and a reserved value. This same scheme is used to document
the measured sample rate for each of the eight 2-channel
interface streams by using 8 flags and a rate value.
The last reading section is the Dolby metadata and is only valid
if the instrument has a Cat-552 option installed. The colored
backgrounds are used to indicate which values are subject to a
flag indicating their validity. For a description of this grouping
and a complete description of all entries see ATSC A/52b.
There are numerous additional entries representing settings
data. The first three will be described here. The first is a count
which increments (modulo 15) each time the array of settings
is changed. The next two entries give the UTC zone offset and
the Daylight Savings Time offset assigned to the instrument. If
your application requires the use of other settings the
appropriate information can be requested from Qualis Audio.
