One of the commonly asked questions that we have is “I’ve got a new PC. Will the Cirrus software program X work?”.

There are many different versions of Windows in use and we still see customers using Windows 2000 or even 98SE.

We’ve replaced our old Knowledgebase with a new Wiki which contains all of the information from the old version as well as a range of new information and data.

The new site can be found at wiki.cirrusresearch.co.uk

The Wiki can be used for support and guidance and there’s a very simple search function along with dedicated pages for the main Cirrus products.

The Wiki is also linked to our  information library so you can download the latest datasheets, product information, technical notes, articles and application notes. We will be adding new information to this site so check back to find out what’s new.

This new Wiki is managed by our  Technical Customer Support department, led by our newest member of staff Craig Storey, who will be pleased to hear from you if you need any support or information about any of our noise measurement instruments.

If you have any questions about using our products or any aspect of our sound level meters, noise dosimeters and noise measurement instruments, you can call us on 0845 230 2434 in the UK and +44 1723 891655 from outside the UK. There is also a support form on the Wiki which you can use to send us a message or request more information.

Why not have a look and see if you’re question is already answered.
