Ear coupler cable test

Every day before you start testing on patients, you should test the ear coupler cable to make sure that it functions cor-
rectly. The ear coupler cable test consists of two parts:

1. An automatic test to check whether there is a cable breakage.

2. A manual listening test to make sure the ear coupler adapters are not clogged.

Automatic test

1. Insert the ear coupler adapters into the sockets at each end of the ABR Tester.

2. Press the

Ear coupler cable

button on the

Quality Tests

screen.

If the message

Ear Coupler OK

appears, the ear coupler cables function correctly.
