FIRMWARE UPDATE
The PAA3X allows for firmware updates which
will be periodically available through Phonic’s
website (www.phonic.com).
OPERATING TIPS
● If you feel a function is not working, first make
sure you’ve selected the correct Input Source
in the Settings menu. Throwing the PAA3X
at the wall solves nothing.
●
Capture your readings quickly using the
screen cap button. The right-most button
will immediately save a screen shot to any
FAT-32 formatted SD card you have inserted.
●
If the signal clips, adjust the display range.
A higher display range will prevent the unit
from clipping when signals go higher than
the current display ceiling.
●
It is not recommended that you continue us-
ing PAA3X for any measurements when the
battery is low. Always ensure you have the
charger on hand, just in case.
●
Push and hold the power button for 3 seconds
to turn the unit on and off. In the unlikely event
that the PAA3X crashes, push and hold the
power button for 10 seconds to turn it off.
●
Using the jog wheel is the fastest way to
control the PAA3X. Getting familiar with it
will save you a lot of time in the long run.
● If you will be reading measurements off the
PAA3X over a long period of time, be sure to
turn the system’s sleep mode ‘off’, otherwise
the screen will go dark after a few minutes.
This is done through the Utility menu found
in the Main menu.
●
When testing sound pressure, the MAX
(maximum sound pressure level) field can
be reset by simply scrolling to it and hitting
enter when it’s highlighted.
●
The PAA3X can only be charged through the
USB connector. This may be done using the
included adapter.
●
When the PAA3X is charging, the power
LED on the side will flash. This LED will stop
flashing when the battery is fully charged.
