Betjeningsvejledning

1. Grundlæggende måling

  1. Tryk på MAGT for at tænde enheden.
  2. The display will show the current sound level in decibels (dB).
  3. Weighting (A/C): Brug A/C button to switch between A-weighting (for general noise measurement, mimicking human ear response) and C-weighting (for measuring peak sound pressure levels).
  4. Response Time (FAST/SLOW): Brug HURTIG LANGSOM button to select the desired response time. Fast response is suitable for rapidly changing noise, while slow response is for more stable noise levels.
  5. Valg af rækkevidde: The device features an automatic range selection from 30 to 130 dB. Manual range adjustment may also be available depending on the model's specific firmware.
  6. MAX/MIN Hold: Tryk på MAX/MIN button to display the maximum or minimum sound level recorded during a measurement session. Press again to cycle through modes or exit.
  7. Data Hold: Tryk på HOLDE knappen for at fryse den aktuelle aflæsning på displayet. Tryk igen for at slippe.

2. Datalogning

The SL-451 can record up to 32,000 measurements.

  1. Sørg for, at enheden er tændt.
  2. Tryk på REC button to start data logging. The "REC" indicator will appear on the display.
  3. Tryk på REC knappen igen for at stoppe logningen.
  4. To retrieve logged data, connect the device to a PC using the USB cable and open the installed software.
  5. Follow the software instructions to download, view, and analyze the recorded measurements. The software supports analysis according to standards like DIN 15905-5.
