Probe leakage

If there is a probe leak during testing, this will be shown on the MADSEN Zodiac and OTOsuite screens.

If you are using the Quick Check probe, the leakage indication will remain until you remove the probe
from the ear and try again.

Probe blocked

If the probe is blocked during testing, this will be shown on the MADSEN Zodiac and OTOsuite screens.

If you are using the Quick Check probe, the blocked probe indication will remain until you remove the
probe from the ear and try again.

Sequence testing

A test sequence is a predefined set of automatic tests which can be performed automatically.

You can perform the immittance tests in a sequence:

•

Diagnostic sequence
Tympan Reflex Threshold (auto search) (+ Reflex Decay, if selected from the menu).

•
