5.1 Getting Started with the touchTymp
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 shorter 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 touchTymp 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. For use in noisier environments, headphones with optional sound
insulation muffs are available. Electronic devices, which emit strong electromagnetic
fields (e.g. microwaves or radiotherapy devices), can influence the audiometric
function. Therefore, it is not recommended to use these devices in close proximity to
the audiometer as it may lead to incorrect test results.
5.1.3 Switching On the Device
Figure 30
NOTE:
The warm up time for the device including boot up
process takes 10 minutes. If the device has not been used
for a while (e.g. overnight), wait for the recommended
period of time before operating the device.
Briefly press the
Front key
on the front of the touchTymp to
turn on the device (Figure 30). The boot up process will take
approximately 2 minutes. During this time the display will
show the MAICO splash screen.
