Sound Level Meter

Overload Indication

In case the measurement result exceeds the preset measure-

ment range, then limit arrows

indicate this overload condi-

tion. The arrows

are displayed for as long as the overload

exists, and at least for a minimum of 1 second. Furthermore,

such an overload condition triggers the OVR indication in the

bottom line, which remains displayed for the complete mea-

surement period. These overload indications are reset at the

start of a new measurement. All overload conditions are regis-

tered in the log and report ﬁles.

Possible causes for exceeding measurement ranges are

The measured sound pressure level exceeds the pre-set •

measurement range during the measurement period. Once

this happens, the OVR indication remains displayed for the

complete measurement period -> select the next higher

measurement range or reduce the input signal level as ap-

plicable.

The input level is near the maximum level of the connected •

NTi Audio measurement microphone.
