Table 1: NoisePRO® recording settings.
Parameter | Setting | Description |
Response Rate | Slow (1 sec) | Smooths out noise logging with sudden noise peaks |
Exchange Rate | 3 dB | dBA change equal to a doubling of the noise level |
Low Threshold | 40 dB | Below 40 dBA all noise is ignored by the device |
Range of Response | LO | Expected range 40-110 dBA noise exposure |
Weighting RMS | A | Best fit of frequency response to the how the human ear hears the noise |
Weighting peak | Z | No weighting of frequency response to the peak noise level detected |
These are the standard settings as recommended by the manufacturer for the NoisePRO® to record the noise level as it is experienced by the human ear.
