Low Frequency Detector vs SCT Calculator 3

"Low Frequency Detector" is an acoustic measurement tool for detecting low-frequency sounds that is hard to hear in normal situation. The human ear is not sensitive enough to low-frequency sounds. If you are exposed to noise from nearby construction or factories without realizing it, you may feel discomfort or a sense of pressure. In such cases, you can use this app to check what kind of low-frequency noise is present. Generally, low-frequency sounds is a sound wave ranging from 1Hz to 100Hz. Depending on its frequency component and sound level, the degree of influence on the human body and the noise sensation is different. This app allows you to examine the frequency component of low-frequency sounds by 1/3 octave band analysis and FFT analysis. Features: - Low-frequency power level measurement less than 100Hz (LF Level): Flat characteristic, Updating indication of measurement period 1 sec. - Power level measurement in the audible band (Leq): Flat characteristic, Updating indication of measurement period 200ms. - 1/3 octave band analysis (OCT) - FFT analysis (FFT) - Time course graph (TIME) - Snapshot (Snap) on the measurement display screen. - Report function (Report): Analysis report of a peak LF Level with TIME, OCT and FFT. - Measurement time: up to 60 sec Functions: The measurement analysis is performed in the following step. Be sure to set the measurement conditions in Step-1 once before starting the sound measurement. 1) Calibration (Calibrate): The reference signal (1kHz sine wave) is output to determine the reference noise level for the low-frequency component. If the volume level of iPhone is set to about 20-50%, the calibration will automatically adjust it to the optimum volume level for the reference signal. 2) Measurement (Measure): Analyze a power level of low-frequency sounds. - LF Level (dB): Low-frequency power level less than 100Hz. - Leq (dB): Sound power level with the frequency weight characteristic Z (Flat) of the audible band. 3) Measurement display: It can select either 1/3 octave band frequency analysis, FFT analysis or Time course graph. They are updated in real time. 4) Report: Measurement result report. It is effective when measuring for 10 seconds or more. # Time course graph: TIME - Low-frequency (LF) Level (dB): Time course graph with peak level noise level judgment (RED-very noisy, YELLOW-noisy, GREEN-normal) at the peak level. - LF max (dB): maximum dB value of low frequency. # Frequency response graph: OCT, FFT - OCT Band LF max (dB): maximum dB value in 1/3 octave band at LF max observation. - Max Level Frequency (Hz): peak frequency at LF max observation. Notes: - The sound measurement of the low-frequency range is a level difference with respect to the reference signal, which indicates the relative power level. - The reference signal is output during calibration and sound level measurement. - Do not change the volume level of iPhone after the calibration. - White line in the OCT and FFT modes indicates frequency characteristics in frequency weight correction of G characteristics. - Since iPhone's built-in microphone has a lower sensitivity on the very low frequency range, it is not recommended to measure a huge volume sound near a very loud noise source. - Since it takes a while for the observation value to stabilize immediately after the start of measurement, the maximum value is calculated from about 2 seconds later. - In the case high power of 1kHz component is included in the measured noise source, the precision of measured value by this app largely decreases. - Sudden noise or impulsive sounds are not low frequency noises in general. - The previous calibration information can be maintained internally. - The analysis results may vary due to individual differences in iPhone devices. - The authorization to access built-in microphone and Photos will be confirmed by iOS system at first access.

The SCT Calculator is a utility for AKC Agility Judges to easily calculate and record their Standard Course Times (SCTs) at a judging event. The app allows you to enter in distances measured either in feet or in yards (the app assumes that numbers larger than 220 are designated as feet measurements). Quickly select the class type (either Standard or Jumpers With Weaves) and the class level (either Premier, Master, Open, Novice or ISC) and press the calculate button to update the onscreen display of your SCTs. Use the Settings button to set your email address, the name of the club, and any calibration adjustments for your wheel. If you don't supply both an actual length and a measured length, the wheel calibration will not be taken into account when you enter in your measured course distances. Pressing the Email Button will automatically send the calculations to your supplied email address (using the email app on your device) for permanent record keeping. If you select the ISC class, you can also record which level (L1 thru L3) the class is for. This version of the app includes the latest rule changes announced by AKC that went into effect on July 1, 2024.
