1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing an Amplivox Otowave 102, a hand-held, portable
tympanometer that will give many years of reliable service if treated with
care. This operating manual covers product variants 102-1 & 102-4.
1.1. Intended applications
The Otowave 102 is designed for use by audiologists, general practitioners,
hearing aid dispensers and child health professionals.
The instrument performs two types of measurement:
Tympanometry is used to measure the compliance of the tympanic
membrane and middle ear at a fixed frequency over a range of pressures.
Reflex tests are used to measure stapedial reflexes. The Otowave
measures ipsilateral reflexes and, when selected, reflex measurement is
automatically carried out after a tympanogram is taken.
1.2. Features
Automatic measurement of ear canal volume, tympanic
compliance peak, placement of the peak and the gradient
Automatic detection of stapedial reflexes
Up to 30, dual-ear patient tests can be stored in non-volatile
memory
Configurable settings for user preferences, held in non-volatile
memory
Printout via an infrared (IrDA) link to one of two thermal printers
that may be selected by the user
Data transfer to a computer via an infrared IrDA link for storage
viewing & printing using either the Amplivox “TympView” software
or the NOAH application
English, French or German operating languages (user-selectable)
