LCD display

1.UNDER: Alarm symbol, if the reading is under the min set range, this symbol will display.

2.MAX: When in this mode only the highest noise reading will display on the main reading display

3.FAST: Fast time weighting (refer to respond speed)

4.SLOW: Slow time weighting (refer to respond speed)

5.OVER: Alarm symbol, if the reading is over the maximum set range, this symbol will display.

6. Bar Graph: Sound levels are displayed via this graph and via the digital display reading (see 8)

14.USB communication icon displayed when the meter is connected to a computer via the USB lead (supplied)

15. REC: Data recording icon displayed when the meter is recording noise readings

16. FULL: Data recording memory full indication. Data would need to be downloaded to PC to empty

Operation:

1.Turning on and off your Meter
a. Press thebuttonto turn on your meter.
After 10 minutes without any operation the meter will automatically power off.
Press the buttonagain to turn off the meter manually.

b. If the meter is already be connected to a PC and the symbol is displayed the meter
will not turn off until the batteries run out or it is disconnected from the PC, when part (1.a) will
again apply

2.A/C frequency weighting selection

Press the A/C button to select frequency weighting A/C (your selection will display on the right
of the LCD screen as dBA or dBC)

When you turn the meter on it will be in A weighting mode.

Aweighing enables the meter to respond in the same manner as the human ear, which increases and decreases amplitude over the frequency spectrum. Applications include environmental measurement, law enforcement and workplace design.

CWeighting is suitable for flat response measurements with no increase or decrease of amplitude over the frequency spectrum. Applications include the sound level analysis of machinery and engines

3.MAX value measurement function

a. When measuring sound levels press the MAX button to freeze the maximum reading on the
screen. The reading will remain unchanged until a higher reading is detected. Note that the bar
graph will continue to record the current reading.

b. Press the MAX button again to exit this mode.

4. FAST/SLOW respond speed function

When you turn the meter on it will be in fast response mode.

Press F/S button to toggle between the Fast (500ms per reading) and Slow (1s per reading)

5.BACKLIGHT function

Press BL button to turn on/off backlight ad desired.

6.Recording function

a. Press REC button. The REC icon will appear on screen. The meter will now begin logging the maximum and minimum noise levels. This will only function after the parameters have been set via PC.

b. The meter will continue to record until you turn the meter off, the meter memory reaches full capacity or the batteries run out.

Each new recording will require the meter to be reconnected to the PC so the parameters can be reset

**The Auto off feature is disabled in Recording mode**

For full instructions on operating the software, please refer to HELP Section once the software is installed

7. Software installation

Run the Setup.EXE file in the folder “Noise Logger (Setup)” in the setup disk.

Battery Replacement:

If the meter does not power on as usual or the low battery icon appears on the LCD display, please replace the batteries as soon as possible. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the back battery compartment cover and insert 4 x new AA batteries 1.5V.
