doseBadge⁵ noise dosimeter - instrument handbook
24
7.2.10 Advanced
The advanced tab allows for more detailed functions to be configured.
7.2.10.1 Calibration
This setting allows the calibration level that the doseBadge5 is expecting to be adjusted to
suit the acoustic calibrator being used. By default this is set to 114dB to suit the CR:518
acoustic calibrator.
7.2.10.2 Tamper & Dose Warning
The doseBadge5 can be programmed to display a visual warning when either of the
following conditions are met:
Tamper
The doseBadge5 contains an accelerometer which can be used to indicate when the
instrument has been knocked or has been subject to an impact. This can affect the validity
of noise measurements and so it is useful to know when this occurred. The measurement
data can be recalculated to exclude areas where the tamper sensor has been activated.
If this option is enabled, the time history graph will be marked to show when the sensor
was activated.
Dose Warning
The doseBadge5 can indicate with the Red LED when a pre-set % dose level has been
exceeded. The channel used for the calculation and the level can be configured. The
available channels are defined by which integrator channels are enabled.
7.2.10.3 Bluetooth connection settings
This allows the Bluetooth connection to be enabled or disabled in the instrument. This
may be required when your equipment is going to be used in a sensitive area or is being
transported by air.
When transporting, use Transport Mode described on the next page.
