Class 1 Sound Level Meter (with low-frequency sound measurement function) NL-63 Instruction Manual Operation Guide

7.3 Store operation in Timer Auto mode

Continuously record the results calculated at the set start time and timer auto cycle. This mode can be used by installing an SD card.
When one of the following conditions occurs, the store is stopped and data is saved.

  • When the Leq store reaches 1,000 sets
  • When the capacity of the SD card becomes insufficient

Note

  • The time at which the calculation is started is used for the measurement date and time of the measurement and calculation data. For example, if the calculation time is 1 minute for Leq store, and the measurement date and time of the data is 00:01:02, it is the value for 1 minute from 00:01:02.
