Power Button key turns the sound level meter ON or OFF. MAX / MIN Hold Button Press button to enter the maximum and minimum recording mode. Select the proper Level range before using MAX/MIN to ensure that reading value will not exceed the measurement range.
SOUND LEVEL METER AC output terminal - 1 Vrms Corresponding to each range step. - Output impedance = 100 ohms - Output signal by standard 3.5 mm coaxial socket signal on pin. Battery Cover Calibration Procedures Using a standard Acoustic Calibrator (94dB, 1kHz sine wave).
(1) Make the following switch settings. Display: dBA Time Weighting: FAST Measurement Mode: MAX/MIN Mode function disable Level Range: 50 to 100 dB (2) Insert the microphone housing carefully into the insertion hole of the calibrator. (3) Turn on the switch of calibrator and adjust the CAL potentiometer of the unit. The level display will indicate the desired level.
VIII. Measurement (1) Open battery cover and install a 9V battery in the battery compartment. (2) Turn power ON and select the desired response time and weighting. If the sound source consists of short bursts or only catching sound peak, set response to FAST.
