Press ◄ to return and view the tympanogram, reflex results or to repeat the test. When satisfied with the
results press ►.
The message “Saving as last test” will be displayed and the results will be saved in the “last test” memory. The
results will remain available until a new test is started, even if the Otowave is turned off.
If both ears were chosen for test the entire sequence will now be repeated for the right ear:
TESTING RIGHT EAR
INSERT PROBE
Cancel Skip
Press ► to skip testing of the right ear and display the PROCESS RESULTS menu. Press ◄ to cancel and
return to the ear selection menu. In both cases the left ear results are retained and may be viewed as the LAST
TEST.
Otherwise insert the probe; the right ear test will then proceed as described above.
When the selected ears have been tested and the results saved the PROCESS RESULTS menu will be
displayed. This accesses the following functions:
•
Print the results
•
Save the results in the internal database
•
Review the results as described above
•
Return to the main menu
The results of the last test performed remain available even if the Otowave has been turned off. To view these
results select VIEW THE LAST TEST from the main menu. After selecting the required ear the tympanogram
will be displayed. It will then be possible to view the results and select the PROCESS RESULTS menu as if
the test had just been completed.
Please note:
Results of the last test will be erased as soon as a new test is started. Test results should
be saved to the Otowave’s database, printed or sent to a computer to ensure that data is not lost.

EAR SEAL CHECK
The type of ear seal check employed at the start of a test can be set in the CONFIGURATION menu (Section
6). The default STANDARD option is adequate for most tests, although it may not always be possible to
generate the extremes of pressure with this setting.
However, if difficulty is experienced in using the ear tips to create a seal the alternative EXTENDED option
may be helpful. This checks that a range of pressures will be available before starting a test by means of a
visual indication of the quality of the seal:
