The SD-200 features a removable windscreen. This is primarily used to reduce
noise effects from wind with minimal effects on the readings. It is recommended to
use the instrument with the windscreen on at all times in order to protect the
microphone.
When the instrument is shipped, the windscreen will be detached. To attach, slide
the windscreen completely over the microphone.
Positioning and tripod mount
If hand-held, position the SD-200 microphone angling it at about 70 degrees
from the noise source. To place the instrument in a work zone/area, a tripod
may be used by connecting it to the tripod mount while positioning it at about
a 70 degree angle towards the noise source.
