5 Operating the Device
5.1 Getting started with the easyTone
5.1.1 Use of Equipment After Transport and Storage
Make sure the device is functioning correctly before use. If the device has been stored
in a colder environment (even for short time) allow the device to become acclimatized.
This can take a long time depending on the conditions (like environmental humidity).
You can reduce the condensation by storing the device in its original packaging. If the
device is stored under warmer conditions than the use conditions no special precaution
are required before use. Always ensure proper operation of the device by following
routine check procedures for audiometric equipment.
5.1.2 Where to Setup
The easyTone should be operated in a quiet room, so that the audiometric examinations
are not influenced by outside noises. Ambient sound pressure levels in an audiometric test
room shall not exceed the values specified in ISO 8253 series or ANSI S3.1.
Electronic devices, which emit strong electromagnetic fields (e.g., microwaves or
radiotherapy devices), can influence the function of the audiometer. Therefore, it is not
recommended to use these devices in close proximity to the audiometer as it may lead
to incorrect test results.
The test room must be at a normal temperature, usually from 15 °C/59 °F to
35 °C/95 °F, and the device should be switched on approximately 1 minute before the
first measurement. If the device has been cooled down (e.g., during transport), please
wait until it has warmed to room temperature before using.
NOTE:
For temperature and warm-up time see:
