In order to calibrate the R8080 an external calibrator that can provide a
94.0dB signal is required (REED R8090). If the meter has been exposed
to extreme conditions or it has not been used in a long period of time the
meter should be calibrated by following steps 1 through 6 below.
1. Remove windshield ball.
2. While the meter is off, press and hold the
MIN/MAX
button while
turning the meter on.
3. When the meter turns on release both the
MIN/MAX
and Power
button to enter calibration mode as indicated on-screen by
"CAL 94dB".
4. Insert the microphone into the calibrator.
5. Press the Up and Down arrow buttons to increase or decrease the
dB level to match the Sound Calibrator output.
6. Once the desired dB level has been attained press the
MIN/MAX
button to save the setting and exit calibration mode.
NOTE:
Press the Power button to exit the calibration mode at any time.
