Introduction configuration
The SPL-5 MK2 is a sound level limiter that records the sound pressure levels for at least 180
day's. Other events like power cycle, tamper detections or overload on sound level are also
recorded.
Using the SPL-5 MK2 configuration software the unit can be configured and sound sample data
can be read. On release of the SPL-5 MK2 the configuration software is supported by windows 7
and higher. In normal use the SPL-5 MK2 connected to the software is read only. Users can read
all settings and decibel logging. To change any setting the installer license in combination with the
installer password is required.
To connect to the SPL-5 MK2 a windows-computer with USB support is needed. When the SPL-5
MK2 is connected to a local area network or an internet connection, the software allows to connect
remotely.
The limiter uses an external measurement microphone to determine the current sound level. When
the sound level exceeds the maximum allowed level the limiter will reduce the output level to
ensure the sound level stays within it's limits.
Using the time and bypass calendar the SPL-5 MK2 can adjust the maximum allowed sound level
automatically during the day, week and year.
When connected, the special SRL-1 stage relay an external warning light can be connected and if
needed the power of for example a DJ booth monitor can be cut. This way the sound level is
secured without any compromises to the quality of sound.
