Here you can set up periods, corrections and alarms for calculating Partial LAeq values.
Click on the 
icon in the left menu to open the Special functions menu item, then select Partial LAeq setup:
Partial LAeq profile hour (from Noise compass)
Here you can set up an hourly LAeq value which has values removed or reduced by the Noise compass settings if it is pointing in another direction than selected with a higher quality parameter than required. This value will always be lower than the measured LAeq unless the ExcludeNoValues setting is enabled. Then it could possibly be higher, but the profile time will no longer be one hour. Partial LAeq requires that profileA LAeq is enabled and uploading to NorCloud and a Noise compass is enabled.
The following settings are available under Partial LAeq:
Field name |
Optional / Required |
Data in field |
Information |
|---|---|---|---|
Sensor |
Required |
Text |
Choose from one of the sensors with Noise compass enabled. |
Sector |
Required |
Selection of sector |
Choose what sector to keep values from. All values pointing in this direction, regardless of quality is kept for calculating partial LAeq. |
Function |
Required |
ExcludeNoValues, FixedvValue or Statistics |
Select what to do if the noise compass is not pointing in the selected sector direction and it is above the given quality requirement for the other sectors in any samples during the evaluated profile hour. ExcludeNoValues: These values are removed from the calculation, hence the duration of the noise compass measurement data will not be the same in between them, meaning they are not directly comparable. FixedValue, select a fixed value in the BGNSector setting. Statistics: These are statistical values from the sound setup. E.g., LAF,90% or LAF,50%. |
BGNSector |
Required |
Number |
This is the time from and to for the Lden periods day, evening or night. |
These settings will not override the Noise compass trigger settings. It is possible to have the partial LAeq use a different sector than the trigger used on Moving and/or profileB.
