Memory read-out

MEMORY READ-OUT

Hera’s internally stored SPL Log and Event Log can be

forwarded to an external PC for study and archiving. A free

software called “Hera Read-out” is available to download on

the Apex’s website. This software is the only one that may be

used for that purpose.

Using Hera read-out, it is possible to retrieve the LEQ and

MAX measurements list, the events list and other information

such as firmware version. These data can be saved to a file or

directly be copied and pasted into a spreadsheet or a database.

Connection with a PC can be made using a serial port or USB

and even network using the appropriate adapter. Check the

section Connection with a PC earlier in this manual for details.

The latest version of the Hera read-out PC application can be

downloaded from the Apex website. This software doesn’t

require any installation.
