Compute
The computation settings are located at the bottom left of the Analyze
tab.
They contain the following items:
- Start position: select from which point the data should be processed - will be set to the start of the signal by default.
- Stop position select up to which point the data should be processed - will be set to the end of the signal by default
- Compute: choose what to calculate
- Compute-specific settings: the contents of this sub-menu depend on what has been chosen at
Compute
- Output figure: select in which figure the results should be plotted.
- Compute button: press to calculate and plot
Start and stop position
The start and stop position select what part of the measurement is to be processed. Usually, they can be left at their default values, which uses the whole measurement. This option is disabled if multiple measurements with different lengths are selected.
Compute
This setting determines what is calculated. It offers the following options:
- Sound level meter - statistics
- Sound level meter - time dependent
- Power spectra
- Insertion loss
- µZ tool1
These options are further described in their respective sections.
Output figure
The option Output figure
sets where the calculated result should be plotted. A result can be plotted in a new figure, or in any compatible existing figures. A figure is compatible if it has the same axes (with or without phase) and contains similar data, of the same quantity. For example, it is not possible to plot sound levels and a waveform in one figure.

The
µZ tool
is only available if the µZ module has been purchased. ↩
