This unit is a sound level meter that complies with the Japan
measurement law, JIS, and IEC. The microphone is a 1/2-inch
electret condenser (UC-52). It has a wide 107-dB linearity range,
measuring sound levels between 30 and 137 dB, with no need
to select the range. The unit has an LCD panel, operation keys,
an AC monitor output connector and a DC out connector. It is
able to measure the following items.
•� Sound�level�
Lp
•� Equivalent�continuous�sound�level�
Leq
•� Maximum�sound�level�
Lmax
•� Sound�exposure�level�
LE
•� C�weighted�peak�sound�level�
LCpeak
It is powered by two size AAA(IEC R03, LR03) batteries. The
main unit and preamplifier are a single unit so it is not possible
to extend the microphone.
This unit has the following two level ranges.
Wide range: This measures the range between 30 and 137 dB
and allows simultaneous measurement of Lp, Leq,
Lmax, and LE.
Peak range:
Along with the processing results for wide range,
this range also measures LCpeak, but the lower limit
for measurement becomes 65 dB.
Resume function
This function maintains the settings that have been configured
before power-off.
The following items are maintained:
•� Measurement�time
•� Time�weighting�characteristics
•� Level�range
•� Address�indication
The following items have predefined settings upon startup.
•� Frequency�weighting�characteristic�

This connector is composed of a DC out connector and an AC
monitor output connector. (The connector can only be used for
one purpose at a time.)
DC out connector
A DC signal corresponding to the sound level can be output from
here. The signal after frequency weighting, time weighting, and
logarithmic compression is output here (constant output when a
DC output cable is connected). Connect the unit with the optional
DC output cable to external equipment.
AC monitor output connector
An AC signal weighted with frequency weighting characteristic Z
is output here (constant output when an AC monitor output cable
is connected). Connect the unit with the optional AC monitor
output cable to external equipment.
When 110 dB is displayed, output is 1 Vrms +600 mVrms
- 400 mVrms
(The upper limit of the output voltage is 1.8 Vrms)
Strap mount
Attach the hand strap here (see page 8). Pass your wrist
through this strap when holding the unit for measuring.

Inserting the Batteries
Important
Make sure the unit is turn off before inserting
the batteries.
1. Remove the battery compartment cover on the rear of the unit.
2. Insert two size AAA (IEC R03, LR03) batteries into the
battery compartment. Insert correctly as indicated in the
compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.

Take care not to reverse the (+) and (-) polarity when inserting
the batteries. If batteries are inserted with wrong polarity, the
unit willnot operate.
Always use two identical batteries, and replace batteries only
as a set. Mixing battery types or old and new batteries can
lead to damage.
Remove the batteries from the unit when it is not used.
Do not subject the battery spring contacts to excessive stress.
Doing so may weaken the elasticity of the battery spring
contacts, resulting in electrical contact failure between the
contacts and the batteries.
Battery life (at 23°C, using wide range)
Manganese batteries: approx. 3 hours
Alkaline batteries:
approx. 9 hours
Battery life will be reduced by 20% when a DC output cable is
connected.
Battery indication
Indicates battery charge. When the indicator starts to flash, cor-
rect measurement is no longer possible. Replace the batteries
with fresh ones.
Full charge
Indicator flashing
(replace the batteries)
Important
If the indicator starts flashing during processing, processing
will end at that point.
You cannot start processing with the START/STOP key when
the battery indication is flashing.

We recommend attaching the windscreen to reduce wind noise.
Windscreen fall out prevention rubber (hereafter called
“fall out prevention rubber”)
Prevents the windscreen from dropping off the microphone.
This is attached to the unit at the time of shipment.
Important
The windscreen can easily drop off the unit,
so we recommend attaching the fall out pre-
vention rubber.
Be sure to follow the instructions in the fol-
lowing diagram when attaching or detaching
the fall out prevention rubber. Turning it in the
opposite direction may loosen the microphone
and cause it to fall off.
