Sound level meter - Frequently Asked Questions
Question number FAQ-1238
What is the procedure for reading the FFT calculation result via RS-232C?
This is an example of reading the MAX-H value over a 5-second period.
- Send the "AMS1" command to set the FFT average mode to MAX-H.
- Send the command "MTM000:00:05.0" to set the measurement time to 5 seconds.
- Send the "STT" command to start the calculation.
- Send the "STS?" command (status reading) periodically (approximately every 0.1 seconds) to confirm that the sound level meter status has changed from measuring to stopped measuring. Proceed to the next step once it changes from N (measuring) to Z (stopped measuring).
- Use the "LCO?" command to import the data.
- The "DST" LCO command will be deactivated.
If you repeat the process, for the second time onward, repeat steps 3 through 6.
