• Decibel Meter with PC Interface is compact and easy to use while providing you an accurate readings in a greater range than similar inexpensive sound meters on the market.
  • Frequency weighting: A/C,High Accuracy,AC/DC function
  • Windows Compatibility: Windows 10, 8, 7, Vista and XP (Do not run in Mac OS)
  • Sound meter can read between 30dB~130dB, and capture data to a PC using the compatible software (included in the set).
  • Applications includes: Environmental measurement, law enforcement, work place design, sound level analysis of machinery and engines.

Reads well. Measures accurate as far as I can tell. Referenced to other meters prove consistent. Helps to keep sound levels within noise control laws and ordinances.

Works great, super easy to use with software. Super easy to download data from device to PC. Super easy to export that downloaded software data to excel. Need to have good vision/wear glasses though to set up or can risk not recording data by mistake. Also if batteries run out no data recording and no warning. Had that happen once too. Using the PC software that comes with device you simply have device plugged in to PC (using enclosed USB cable), choose 'connect' from software menu, and then choose 'parameters' from software menu and set parameters. Parameters means how often it takes a data reading. You can do every 3 seconds if you want. The more time between readings the longer it will log data - and the software lets you know how many hours/days it will log data for based on the seconds between readings. It can log data for more than a day at 15 second intervals between readings. Anyway, you save the parameters while the device is connected choosing manual option in software. Then you choose disconnect menu option in software and you can disconnect meter and then whenever you're ready set it up and make sure the power is on and push the record button. If you chose fifteen seconds you will see REC flash every 15 seconds. When you're ready to stop data readings, turn power off, hook back up to PC using software, choose download data, and it sucks the data off the device. The software menu also has an export to excel option. Super easy. SUGGESTED IMPROVEMENT: Wish there was wireless in device along with an app so I could see device status/data realtime on my phone to make sure all in order/recording. I also like that device has a tripod receiver - I had a flexible Gorillapod tripod already that allows me to place this just about anywhere. Used for: See if my dogs are quiet while I'm gone & measure noise levels.
