Programming with scrolling knob key the desired level of detection by 1 dB steps.

Set a timer for maintaining the continuous signal detection after sub-overshoot sound level (from 1s to 10s by 1s pitch).

I/O 2 : DC continuous analogue output : 0-10V for connection to a recorder or industrial controller.

4.3  Contrast - backlight

To optimize reading of the display:

Position the cursor on Cont. and adjust the contrast by choosing with scrolling knob key a level
of 1 to 7.

Position the cursor on Retro. and adjust backlight by choosing with scrolling knob key a level of
1 to 3.

4.4  Autonomy

Autonomy provides information on the remaining memory capacity and allows time measurement according to the
chosen method of measurement and acquisition speed measurement (logging time or sampling rate).

Select measurement mode among L-St or Leq-St.

Specify the sampling rate or logging time according to the method of measurement used.

The measurement time is calculated automatically based on the remaining memory capacity. It is immediately compared to the
remaining capacity of the power system : batteries, battery or AC adapter.
A warning appears in case of incompatibility between measurement time and power capacity. 

4.5  Instrument

This screen reminds main components of the sound level meter :

microphone and its serial number

sound level meter housing

version number of the firmware.

4.6  About

This screen shows the various European standards and the accuracy class of the instrument.
It also specifies the date of the last checking and recalled next.
