Calibration

You should never actually need to calibrate your PAA3. If
measurement data or operation of the unit is abnormal,
however, it may be necessary to. Anyone can calibrate
the PAA3 and regain accurate sound pressure level
measurement by using a sound level calibrator with 1/2"
diameter adapter that sends out a 1 kHz tone. A B&K TYPE
4231 sound level calibrator is suggested.
Procedure:
First, turn the PEAK HOLD OFF and set the RESP
1.
TIME (response time) to 250 ms.
Place a sound level calibrator with a microphone
2.
connector of a 1/2" diameter close to the PAA3's
built-in mic.
Enter the SETTING menu and activate the function.
3.
Adjust the level measured from the SPL calibrator by
4.
pressing UP/DOWN buttons until the level is equal
to that of the sound level calibrator (typically 94 dB).
Pressing the UP button each time will increase the
value by 0.1dB; pressing the DOWN button each time
will decrease by 0.1 dB.
Press the ENTER button to complete the calibration
5.
and to return to RTA display.
ATTENTION: If you want to cancel calibration, simply press
the ENTER button to exit before making any adjustment.
To resort the default calibration, simply adjust the offset
value to 0.0 dB.
