1  Introduction 

 

All Oscilla tympanometer and 

–audiometer, which have a USB-connection can be calibrated through the 

USB-connection.   

 

Supported operating system: 

Microsoft Windows Vista 

Microsoft Windows 7 

Microsoft Windows 8 Pro 

 

Minimum requirements:  

 

Pentium PC with 1 GB RAM 

Available USB-port 

1024 x 800 resolution with 32 bit color depth, 96dpi. 

Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 

 

 

2  Installation of the Oscilla

 device 

 

Connect the Oscilla

 instruments by USB to the computer as shown to the right. 

 

Windows automatically find and prepares your system to communicate with the Oscilla

 instrument. This 

operation can take up to a minute. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When the new hardware is found and ready to use, continue installation as follows: 
 

3  Installation of the software 

 
Run the installation file from the computer, a USB flash stick or a CD drive and start the installation file. 

Follow the installation windows on the screen, and press 

Finish

 on the last window.

 

The software is now installed on your computer and you are ready to calibrate Oscilla

 instruments. 

 

4  General use of the calibration software 

 
Before you beginning the use the calibration software, you must consider two important issues: 
1. Which calibration standard (IEC / ANSI) you want the instrument to comply to.  
2. In which mode/way you want to do the calibration mode (SPL or HL)

1

 
It is very important for the final calibration result, that you setup the calibration standard and the calibration 
mode before you start using the software. If you are uncertain about the use of the software, you are 
recommended to join a training course, contact Oscilla support for information about this.  
To setup calibration standard, go to section 8. Hearing level offsets

 SPL: Sound pressure level, HL: Hearing level
