Troubleshooting
The meter is not working
Check that the batteries are correctly fitted and are
not flat. If the OLED is displaying a reading, then the
meter is turned on and working.
The meter makes a loud double-beep
Check for a “Low battery” screen message next time
it beeps. Replace the batteries.
The instrument readings are varying a lot when
I move the Acoustimeter a small amount
RF EMFs arrive from multiple sources and reflect off
many types of surfaces. This results in many small
“hotspots” so movement of the Acoustimeter show
up these real hot RF exposure spots.
The peak signal is high, but the average is low
This is to be expected from many sources, as most
wireless technology uses ‘pulsed’ digital signals.
The instrument readings are varying a lot even
when the Acoustimeter stays still
Regular high “blips” every few seconds may be due
to a rotating radar transmitter or a Wi-Fi signal.
Irregular high readings are produced by mobile
phones when they transmit data. Increasingly,
the “Internet of Things” (IOT), including Smart
Meters, produce intermittent signals.
