Measurements
Measurements are done at a number of positions and categorised in
functions (L1 for Source Room levels, L2 for Receiving Room levels, B2
for Receiving Room Background noise levels and T2 for Receiving Room
Reverberation Time measurements)
LEVELS L1, L2 AND B2
L
ZF
spectrum for display only
L
Zeq
in 1/1-octave or 1/3-octave bands
L1 and L2 simultaneously or as single channels
Averaging time: 1 s to 1 hour
Range (L1 and L2 simultaneously only): Autorange or manually set to
High Range or Low Range
Averaging: Up to 10 source positions each with up to 10 measurement
positions or up to 100 measurements may be averaged
Status Indications: Overload, under range, etc.
Crosstalk:
5 Hz – 10 kHz < –110 dB
10 kHz – 20 kHz < –100 dB
REVERBERATION TIME T2
T20 and T30 in 1/1-octave or 1/3-octave bands
Decays: L
Zeq
spectra sampled at 5 ms intervals
Evaluation Range: –5 to –25dB for T20 and –5 to –35 dB for T30
Measurement Time: Automatic selection of measurement time for the
decays based on the actual reverberation time of the room
Maximum Measurement Time: From 2 to 20 s
Averaging: T20 and T30 measurements can be averaged (arithmetic
averaging or ensemble averaging)
T20 and T30 Calculation: From slope in evaluation range
Slope Estimation: Least squares approximation
Quality Indicators: Quality indicators with status information like
Overload, Curvature in %, etc.; extensive list of Status information
Quality Indicators are available on reverberation time spectra for each
frequency band, and as overall quality indicators for each measurement
position and for the averaged result
Reverberation Time Range: Max. 20 s, min. 0.1 – 0.7 s, depending on
bandwidth and centre frequency
Manual Data Entry: A T2 value may be entered in any frequency band of
a measured spectrum
