Recorded tympanograms will always be stored in the selected curve
number overwriting any previous graph in that curve memory. You
must toggle the
Curve selector
on the toolbar to the next curve num-
ber to preserve a previously recorded tymp.
On
The curve number is advanced automatically before the tym-
panogram is recorded (except if the current curve memory is empty).
In this way, the first 3 tympanograms recorded are automatically
stored. If you continue measuring, the curve number is cyclically
increased and older tympanograms are overwritten.
Default:
