Data Logging and Software

The SVAN 957 Sound Level Meter is supplied with the SVANPC+ software. The meter connects to the computer's USB port using the cable supplied. Another option is to transfer the measurements onto a USB memory stick and then plug that into the computer.

Memory stick (option)

Summary Measurement Store - The meter stores a summary of each measurement made. This includes parameters such as the Leq, Peak, Max, Min, Ln. Different frequency and time weightings are stored. Logger Store - The logger can store the Leq, Peak, Min, Max or octave spectrum at a rate of up to 2ms. This gives a graph of the noise level against time when downloaded to the computer.

Tabular Displays

The upper window on the left shows the noise measurements in a table, including parameters such as Leq, Peak, Min and Max.

Graphical Displays

The lower window shows a typical graphical display of the "logger" data. The graph can be zoomed and the cursors can be used to select sections and re-calculate certain parameters.

Printing Reports

Most tabular and graphical results can be sent directly to a printer to give a hard copy. The printed format is similar to the on-screen display.

Exporting Data

Tabular and graphical data can be exported to Excel or Word for custom analysis and reporting
