2 Vocabulary
L-Leq
: represents the measurement mode: conventional and integrating-averaging. Values are measured simultaneously.
Leq-St
: represents the measurement mode: integrating-averaging sound level meter with storage function. The equivalent continuous
sound level on the logging time (DI) is stored into the memory.

NR
: mode to measure noise level of machines or installations according to NR curves.
S1+S2
: denomination for measuring or calculating the levels of 2 sound sources.
LXeq:
X-weighted equivalent continuous sound level on the logging time or on the total time of the measurement.
