CF-5200 Frequently Asked Questions
Question number FAQ-0504
The indicated value of the sound level meter is different from the overall value of the CF.
As the cause of the occurrence of differences.
(1) Sound level meter side
Changing the measurement level range during CAL and measurement will result in a dB difference. (This information does not enter the sound level meter side)
(2) When the frequency range is below 20 kHz, sound components above this frequency range are cut off, resulting in a difference due to this cutoff.
(3) Differences arise due to the different time constants of the sound level meter (FAST, SLOW) and CF.
The time constant of CF corresponds to the measurement time for a data length of 2048 points.
