Facility: Enter Facility information. The information
entered in these fields will be shown on the printout when
active. Empty fields will not be printed (Figure 116).

Pump speed: Selection of pump speed determines how
precisely and quickly the test will proceed (Figure 117).
NOTE: A slow speed is more time consuming, but may
give more detailed information.
There are four different pump speed settings:
• Automatic (Dynamic from 600 daPa/s for low gradient
and 200 daPa/s for a gradient larger than 5 daPa)
• Minimum (50 daPa/s): slow, very precise results
• Medium (250 daPa/s): compromise of speed and precision
• Maximum (>400 daPa/s): fast, screening

Auto stop: will automatically stop measurement when
hitting the zero line to lessen the test time without affecting
results (Figure 118).
Figure 119
Start pressure: the pressure that is first introduced when
performing tympanometry.
Stop pressure: the end pressure of the tympanometry
measurement (Figure 119).
NOTE: MI 26 version, the start pressure must be a higher
value than the stop pressure. MI 36 version, the start
pressure can be higher or lower than the stop pressure.
This way, Tympanometric measurements can be
performed with decreasing or ascending pressure.
