3.7 Threshold Retention Function
This function stores the last presented combination of ear, tone and
frequency for every frequency tested in the audiometer’s memory (air
conduction and bone conduction). Each value is stored by pressing the
STORE key. The operator can then review the results at the end of the
test and record them on an audiogram card, print with the optional printer
and/or transfer results to a NOAH database on a computer.
To review the retained thresholds, select the frequency using
Hz
frequency keys. The stored value for the left ear, designated L and the
stored value for the right ear, designated R are shown on the lower line of
the display.

3.8 Uncomfortable Loudness Levels
If it is required to record uncomfortable loudness levels (ULL) then
pressing Softkey 4 with Air conduction selected will enable this function.
The display will be similar to that shown below, and ULL thresholds are
stored and retrieved as described in Section 3.7.
