Admittance and Pressure Meters
The admittance meter displays the real time admittance as it is being recorded
from the probe in the ear canal. The units are millimhos (mmho). The current
value is displayed at the top left of the meter.
The pressure meter displays the real time pressure as it is being recorded from the
probe in the ear canal. The units are decapascals (daPa). The current value is
displayed at the top left of the meter. The pressure range is controlled from the
pressure range parameter for the test.
Manual
Pressing the Manual button initiates a tympanogram collection where the
pressure knob is used to manually increase or decrease the pressure. When
performing manual measurements, multiple tympanograms are displayed until
the Stop key is pressed. The graphs from the last three measurements are saved
