in the user preferences at the start
page or by pressing the hot key “H”. This can be used for Eustachian Tube Function or for checking
test-retest reliability. Increasingly fainter shades of blue or red are used to differentiate between the
tympanograms. The metrics shown at the side are for the top-most tympanogram in the
brightest color. Tympanograms can be cycled to the top using the cycle button to view their
metrics. The delete button deletes the top-most tympanogram.
