SAVING RESULTS IN THE INTERNAL DATABASE
Up to 32 tests can be saved in the Otowave 102-C internal database.
To save the results of a test select SAVE RESULTS from the PROCESS RESULTS menu that is displayed on
completion of a test. This option can also be accessed by selecting VIEW THE LAST TEST from the main
menu and scrolling through the results using the ► key as long as the test results have not already been saved
or deleted (e.g. by starting and then aborting a new test).
A three character identifier is used for the record. This is also used as the reference for the patient’s name on
the printed record and for data transferred to a computer. The
identifier would typically be the patient’s initials,
and, as the tympanometer uses a combination of this identifier and the date/time of a test to refer to stored
records, this same identifier may be used for different tests for the same patient.
