should be used. Printers supplied with the Otowave 102 are correctly
configured for communication but it is important to ensure that the correct
printer is selected (use the MENU options described in Section 12.2 to
make this selection).
If the Martel MCP8830 does not communicate properly (i.e. will not print)
please check that the Option2 setting (for IrDA communications) is set to 2
(9600 baud)
If the Martel MCP8830 printer is also to be used with an Amplivox
audiometer it may be necessary to ensure that the Option 4 setting (for
RS232 Baud Rate) is set to 4 (2400 baud). Refer to the documentation
supplied with the printer.
The Able and Sanibel printer has no user-settable configuration options.
Before attempting to print ensure the printer is fully charged, switched on,
loaded with paper and ready to print.
To print the results of the last test select SEND TO PRINTER from the
PROCESS RESULTS menu on completion of the test. (Similar facilities for
printing are available from the VIEW THE LAST TEST and DATA
MANAGEMENT options in the MAIN MENU.)
Press ◄ to cancel printing.
The three character identifier for the record (see Section 6) is printed in the
“Name” field followed by the Otowave graphical displays, the analysis and
the results. The name of the hospital, the department, and the calibration
dates for the instrument may also be printed if required (see Section 12.2).
There is space for additional details to be handwritten by the clinician
(patient name/age, operator & comments).
Thermal paper printouts can fade with exposure to light or heat. Consider
transferring the data to a computer for permanent storage.
8.2. Data transfer to NOAH or TympView
To transfer test results stored within the tympanometer to a NOAH
database the Amplivox NOAH Impedance module must be installed on to a
computer. Alternatively, Amplivox TympView allows data to be transferred
to a computer and subsequently viewed, annotated & printed. This software
is supplied on a CD which includes this operating manual.
Refer to the installation & operating instructions provided with the NOAH
Impedance Module or TympView for further details.
