Stimulus resolution: Select the stimulus resolution using the slider.
Sweep Speed: Select the speed using the slider. The sweep speed affects the precision of the
knee-point calculation. The slower speed the higher precision. The current speed will be written
just above the slider expressed in dB per second.
4) Te st Settings:
Battery simulator: Select the correct battery type for the hearing aid to be used under the test.
In general Zinc-air types will give best results, particularly on power hearing aids, as this battery
type is best at providing current. If a Zinc-air battery type is selected, then an estimated battery
lifetime is calculated as part of the Battery Current Drain test. If Standard battery is selected, a
traditional high quality zinc-air battery is simulated. Additional battery types may be custom
designed with specific characteristics by the HIT440. This can provide interesting information on
how a particular hearing aid performs with a good battery and with a poor battery.
If “Not Used” is selected no power is supplied by the battery simulator.
Color: Select a colour for the Right and Left curve.
