Frequently Asked Questions
about the SWARM Sound
Like our SWARM Vibration monitor, the SWARM Sound has LED lights to indicate the device's status. The difference is the number. The SWARM Sound has five status LED lights to create a light sequence to read the status.
Check out our Support Center for all the sequence animations.
Example of the startup sequence:
No, the foam cap will not be blown away by the wind. However, we do not recommend testing this during a hurricane or tornado.
Don't worry, you will not miss a sound. We thought it through. Researched the effects extensively and tested the SWARM Sound meticulously.
For Class 1 performance noise monitoring, there is no difference if the microphone is on top or the bottom of the SWARM Sound level monitor.
The SWARM Sound microphone direction is sideways and calibrated forward. When mounted on a pole, the microphone is slightly angled and omnidirectional. Pointing the microphone upward adds no value to the measurement and makes it easier for birds to sit on it, and the microphone is more affected by rain. Therefore, we recommend pointing it downward.
That is why it doesn't matter that the SWARM Sound microphone is not pointed upward.
