Marking Baseline Test
A saved test file can be marked as a baseline data file via the menu sequence
⌐F
ILES ⌐MARK BASELINE TEST. Enter the patient ID and test files for the patient will
be displayed. Select the file to mark, and then select {Left Baseline / Right
Baseline / Both / Cancel}. Individual selection of left and right baseline designation
allows selection of tests at different times to be used for left and right baseline.
SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS
The ES3 can transmit data to a computer or to a printer. The default output
device is selected using the menu sequence ⌐S
ETUP ⌐COMMUNICATIONS ⌐DEFAULT
OUTPUT, and data is transmitted using the ⌐SEND DATA main menu option. Note
that the ES3 implements no handshaking protocol for serial communications.
This means that the ES3 cannot detect an unconnected serial port or a ‘not ready’
state. It is the user’s responsibility to verify that a serial cable is connected and
that the external device (printer or computer) is powered up and ready for
communications before attempting to transmit data.
NOTE: While an Earscan 3 is attached to the PC using the supplied USB cable, it
is automatically configured for output to a PC at a baud rate of 115.2k, and no
setup changes are required.
