4. FUNCTIONS OF THE INSTRUMENT
– Function
To select the
Function
list, the user should
press the
<Menu>
push-button, select the
Function
text and press
<ENTER>
. The
Function
list contains three elements:
Mode
,
Measurement Function
and
Calibration
.
<ENT>
4.1. Selection of the instrument mode
– Mode
The device can work in two modes:
Sound Meter
and
Vibration Meter
.
<ENT>
Note: In the manual text the Sound mode (or Sound measurements) refers to the Sound Meter
modes and the appropriate functions dedicated for the measurement and analysis of the acoustic
signal: Level Meter, 1/1 Octave, 1/3 Octave, FFT; the Vibration mode (or Vibration measurements)
refers to the Vibration Meter modes and the appropriate functions dedicated for the measurement
and analysis of the vibration signal: Level Meter, 1/1 Octave, 1/3 Octave, FFT.
4.2. Measurement functions of the instrument - Measurement Function
The main function of the instrument is the measurement of Sound
pressure
or
Vibration
broad band level
(
Level Meter
). The Sound Level Meter (SLM)
function
provides the user with functions meeting the standard
IEC 61672:2013 for Type 1 accuracy and the Vibration Level Meter (VLM) meeting the standard ISO 8041:2005.
The instrument can also be used for medium to the long-term acoustic monitoring using the huge capacity data
logger in which all the measurement results are stored.
The user may also use 1/1 and 1/3 real time octave band frequency analysis functions. These functions extend
the main Level Meter functionality of the instrument, because the selected 1/1 and 1/3 octave analysis is
performed together with all calculations of Level Meter.
To select the required function, the user
should enter the
Measurement Function
list.
After
entering
the
Measurement Function
list, the set of the
available functions appears on the display:
Level Meter
,
1/1 Octave
,
1/3 Octave
and
FFT
(in case of Sound modes). The currently
active function is marked.
<ENT>
Note: The type of measurement function and the measurement mode is displayed in the upper line
of the screen.
