(Applies to TNM version 2.1 and above) After selecting File, Import Stamina-2.0 Input Files from the menu, be sure to select the Import Shielding Factors check box in the resultant import window. TNM will import the shielding factors from your STAMINA files as adjustment factors. Refer to Section 4.7.1 in the User’s Guide for more information. Beginning with TNM Version 2.1, positive STAMINA shielding factors are imported as negative “adjustment factors,” such that the shielding factors are subtracted from the sound level results (negative adjustment factors are added). Negative STAMINA shielding factors are imported as positive “adjustment factors,” such that the absolute values of the shielding factors are added to the sound level results (positive adjustment factors are added).
