Phonic PAA3 User Manual page 11

Accumulation: AC 01
Users are able to accumulate various RT60
calculations by pressing enter while the "ACxx"
(where xx equals the number of accumulated
values) option is highlighted. Up to 30
measurements can be accumulated. When RT60
measurements are accumulated, the average
of said memories is automatically taken and
displayed onscreen. After 30 memories have been
accumulated, users will be forced to store their
data, or else lose it.
Store: STO
Storing the results of RT60 measurements is
simple. First highlight the STO option and push
ENTER. When the store page comes up, choose
one of the memory slots from 1 to 10, and select
YES to store. The memory slot you selected will
have a box surrounding the number now, as to
indicate that a memory is stored in that particular
slot. Selecting "A/C" will clear all memory slots.
Recall: RCL
RT60 measurements can be recalled at anytime
by selecting the "RCL" option in the RT60 menu.
Memory slots 1 to 10 and A to F can all be recalled
with ease. Each memory location page displays
only 4 memories at a time, however, therefore
users must select NEXT to continue onto the next
page of stored memories.
PAA3X
Average: AVG
To get the average of RT60 measurements that
are stored in the PAA3, simply select AVG. Select
from memories 1 to 10 (memory slots with saved
data are indicated by a box surrounding the slot
number), a dot will appear next to the number
to show that a memory slot is selected. When
all memories are selected, simply select AVG to
determine the average, or ESC to escape. When
differently weighted items are attempted to be
averaged, a warning will appear onscreen advising
users to select again.
