James, I believe the standard you want is ISO 7779 "Measurement of airborne noise emitted by computer and business equipment". In a past life I had to use this standard and in it are specific measurement criteria. Some criteria from memory are number and placement of microphones, construction of measurment area, etc. I hope this helps. Best regards, Ron Pickard ron_pick...@hypercom.com

Can anyone give the measurement methods, or a reference to a method. Specifically, I'm looking for something like the distance from the microphone, to the noise source.
