Software - Function Buttons
Distance settings
Set up the distance between the SoundCam
and your measurement object by using the
slider.
If the measurement object is further away than
350 cm set it to the max level 350cm.
You can also type in numbers by clicking into
the Distance box.
Scaling settings
Choose your scaling by clicking on the first
dark blue box: auto -> Max. found in the
pictures is used as maximum.
Smart -> Removes background noise. Average
level of the picture is calculated and crest
factor is added. Off -> Set up maximum level
by clicking into the box.
Set up the dynamic range using the slider for
auto and off scaling.
For smart scaling set up dynamic range and
crest factor. Click on the dark blue box above
the slider to change between dynamic range
and crest factor.
Auto scaling: you see background noise

Smart scaling: background noise is removed
Click on Dynamic to see Crest
Move the cursor to adjust the crest factor
Small number = remove less background noise
Big number = remove more background noise
Frequency filter
Select the frequency range you want to see in
the acoustic picture using the double slider.
You can also type in numbers by clicking into
the Max. Freq. or Min. Freq. box.
Attention!
Higher frequencies can be localized more ac-
curate than lower frequencies.
Example:
two noise sources (2,5 kHz and 5 kHz)
set cursors below and above the range e.g. at
1728 Hz and 6267 Hz -> you see two noise
sources
Example:
two noise sources (2,5 kHz and 5 kHz)
set cursors e.g. at 3656 Hz and 6267 Hz -> you
see just the noise source 5 kHz

Example:
two noise sources (2,5 kHz and 5 kHz)
set cursors e.g. at 1728 Hz and 3998 Hz -> you
see just the noise source 2,5 kHz
Example :
two noise sources (2,5 kHz and 5 kHz) +
Dropping paper clip (Impulse - see red marker
in sonogram)
Paper clip hits the ground
Move cursor short before first impulse and
press arrow button in the timeline until the
sound level increases -> new noise source
comes up (the paper clip hits the ground)
Reduce the dynamic range to see the place of
impact
This “step by step method” is perfect for high
dynamic events e.g. S&R, for structure,
material and component tests,…
