2270/2250 Software Packages
Brüel & Kjær recommends that you always use the most current software available. New versions of the analyzer software, which you may want to install on your analyzer, are available for download via this website. Some software versions will be free updates, and some will be upgrades requiring that a new license is purchased. Be sure you have the right license for the software before installing it. Version 3.x of the software requires a version 3 license, version 4.x of the software requires a version 4 licence, etc.

About type approved software versions
National bodies that type approve sound level meters generally approve specific versions of the sound level meter software. Whenever Brüel & Kjær revises software an extension of the approval is applied for. However, new versions can be published on this site before the new approvals are finalised.
If your use of your 2250/2270 relies on the use of an approved version you should check with your type approving authority, or with your local Brüel & Kjær representative, before installing a new version.
If you need to install a previous version of a software module, then use BZ-5503 Measurement Partner Suite to install the 2250/2270 Software Package containing the version of the software module required. If the 2250/2270 Software Package is not already available in the Maintenance/Software tab in BZ-5503, then download the package from the list below.
