Measurement 

1.

Tum on the meter and select the desired response time and 

frequency weighting.  If sound source consists of short bursts,

set response to "FAST'.  To measure the average sound level,

use the "SLOW" setting

Both 

and C weighting model how the human ear perceives

sound, dependent on frequency. 

is best suited to volumes 

below 50 dB and C for volumes above 50 dB.

2.

Next select the desired decibel range.

3.

Hold the instrument comfortably in hand or attach it to a tripod

via the tripod mount.

4.

When 

MAX/MIN (maximum and minimum hold mode) 

is 

chosen.  The instrument records and updates the maximum

and minimum noise level over long periods of time.  Press

(:=J and hold for 2 seconds to clear the MAX/MIN reading.

5.

Tum off the instrument.

Operating Precautions 

Wind blowing across the microphone will bring additional 

extraneous noise and will be reduced by use of the provided 

windscreen. 

Calibrate the instrument before operation if the instrument was 

not in use for a long time or was operated beyond or near the 

environmental specification limits. 

Do not store or operate the instrument in high temperature or 

high humidity environments. 

Take out the battery and keep the instrument in low humidity 

when not in use.
