Baseline
Reference admittance value. For tympanometry, the reference admittance is con-
ventionally measured at 200 daPa ear canal pressure where the contribution from the
middle ear is small. For reflex measurements, the baseline is the compliance without an
applied stimulus.
Baseline compensation
Subtraction of baseline admittance from the result before presentation.
Battery indicator
Rough indication of the remaining battery capacity
Battery type
NiMH or Alkaline
Bluetooth
A type of wireless radio communication commercially available for PC equipment
Broad band noise (BBN)
Stimulus type covering a mix of frequencies across the full stimulus spectrum
C
Cable clip
Accessory used with the shoulder harness
Cable holder
Fork for the charger/cradle desktop base into which a probe cable can be placed to pre-
vent the probe from falling to the floor.
Calibration
Measurement and storage of the frequency specific correction factors needed to produce
a linear probe characteristic
Cap
Transparent plastic part into which the probe can be mounted. Provides a better grip for
the probe. Can be mounted on the test device. Allows a screening handle to be inserted.
Charger/cradle
Charger/cradle designed for test device charging and desktop (or wall-mount) operation
Closing pressure
The pressure at which the Eustachian tube closes
Compliance (C)
Synonymous for admittance. The term compliance is used when admittance is used in
volume units (not mmho).
Connect
Establish radio connection via Bluetooth
Contralateral (Contra)
Opposite side (ear) to where the measurement is performed
Control panel
A vertical pane with controls to remote control testing from the PC
D
Decibel (dB)
Intensity unit
Deflection
Change in admittance caused by contraction of the stapedius muscle. The contraction is
provoked by applying a stimulus in the same (ipsilateral) or opposite (contralateral) ear.
Deflection scale
The maximum value of the admittance scale for display of deflections.
Deflection scale type (lin-
ear/logarithmic)
Determines if the deflection scale for a reflex decay measurement must be linear or log-
arithmic.
Deflection threshold
The minimum deflection value regarded as sufficient to safely distinguish between a
present or absent reflex response.
