Sound Examiner SE-400 Series

Getting Started

This chapter provides the basic information you need to “get up and go” essentially right out of the box,

including receiving your first glimpses of sound pressure level (SPL).

Checking the equipment

If your instrument was sent in a storage case, you will want to remove the packaging and acquaint

yourself with the equipment, so you can quickly get started. The items below are included in a “standard”

Sound Examiner SE-400 Series kit with a calibrator.
