M-27 SIMPLIFIED OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

When using the unit gently press key until light click is felt. Hold down until unit responds. Generally this will be immediately, unless the unit is calculating data such as sound level, in which case it may take up to a second.

Elapsed or real time clock (12 or 24 hour). Calibration level. Code of 24 internal switch settings. The unit prints out:

A heading.

Summary of accumulated data and setup parameters. Up to 16 separate events.

3 separate 1-, 3-, 5-, or 10-minute time histograms. 2 percent time statistical distributions.

2 percent dose statistical distributions.

Raw data for computer storage and manipulations.

Includes editing capability to print out only required data.

The M-27 internal switches select:

Exchange rates of 3, 4, 5, or 6 dB.

Criterion levels of 80, 84, 85, or 90 dB.

2 thresholds of none, 70, 75, 80, 85, or 90 dB.

2 ranges of 35-126 or 50-146 dB.
