Checking and Changing the Settings
The sound level meter’s Settings are additional to the basic
measurement set-up. They are very useful and are based on
a very simple principle (see the example in Fig. 1.1). There
are ten of them in all:
● Auto Logging
● Calibration
● Peak Weighting
● Date and Time
● Auto Start
● Change Range Reset
● Contrast
● Exposure Time
● Interface
● Output Formats
Checking
You can check the first of the sound level meter’s Settings by
pressing the 〈Show〉 pushkey. You can then step through
them by pressing 〈Show〉. However, the Settings are cyclic
and you can step forwards and backwards through them us-
ing Parameter 〈▲〉 and 〈▼〉, respectively (see Fig. 1.1).
Changing
When you reach a Setting you want to change, press 〈Edit〉.
A cursor ( ) appears on the first set-up line you can change.
