A.7 PTB Approved Firmware
In order to be compliant with PTB requirements, the
PTB firmware option and approved firmware must be
installed on the Model 831C SLM. When the option and
approved firmware are installed, an indicator will be
displayed on the status bar indicating the PTB seal is
intact. If any deviation from the PTB approved state is
detected, the indicator will change to show that the
PTB seal has been broken.
Parameters checked:
• 831C-PTB option must not be masked
• NF30-101 option must not be enabled
• PTB approved firmware must be installed
• Must be using a PRM831 or PRM2103
preamp
• Must be using a 377B02 microphone
• Calibration must be within 1.5 dB of the
certified sensitivity
• Microphone corrections must be one of the
following:
• Off
• FF:RI
• FF:RI 2116
• FF:FF 2116
• FF:90 2116
The state of these parameters as well as the PTB seal
state are stored in each data file and are viewable on
the summary page of exported data.
TAKE NOTE
PTB approved firmware can only be
installed by an authorized representative.
