Softkey 1
Users who find it more informative to perform tympanometry using
analog meters instead of the graphic display of a tympanogram can
press
Softkey 1
, and a screen similar to the one shown in Fig.4.4 below
will appear.
Softkey 1
Note that pressing
Softkey 1
again after completion of the tymp. meas-
urement will return you to the graphic display and show you the tym-
panogram you have just made using the analog meters.
Softkey 2
Press
Softkey 2
to record the ECV and display a Compliance tympano-
gram instead of a Volume tympanogram. The measured values of ECV
and Compliance at the current pump pressure are shown on the upper
left of the graphic display. The ECV (and thus the
y
-axis origin on the
Compliance tympanogram) may be reset at any value of pump pressure
by toggling
Softkey 2
back to “Volume”.
Softkey 3
Softkey 3
has no effect during this measurement. The current pump
pressure is displayed in the window above it.
Rotary Knob
The pump pressure may be set by turning the Rotary Knob. A scale will
appear temporarily at the top of the display to indicate the pump position
graphically. This shows what proportion of the pump’s capacity is used to
obtain the static pressure used for the measurement.
Softkeys 4&5
The pump pressure may also be reduced or increased by pressing
Soft-
key 4
or
Softkey 5
, respectively. The Status lamp will light while this is
being done. Holding either key down causes the pressure to change con-
tinuously in the direction of the arrow shown in the window above the
key.
Air Release
To restore the static pressure to zero quickly, press
Air Release
, which
automatically resets the pump position.
L/R Shift
Before testing the patient’s other ear, remember to register the change-
over on the ZODIAC 901, otherwise the data for the first ear will be
overwritten. Press
Alt. Select
and then
Softkey 4
.
Ext. Range
Note that the pressure range of –400 to +200 daPa may be expanded to
–600 to +400 daPa by pressing
Ext. Range.
