15.2.4 TEOAE
The TE Quick setting is used to switch the TE mode on (default) and o.
When on, the mode will provide a Quickscreen click stimulus of 84dB. If it
is set to o, this test mode will not be available.
Mode
Mode sets the pass criteria for screening.
The Wide Band setting requires a signal to noise ratio (SNR) of 6dB over
the 841-4757Hz frequency range in order to meet the pass criteria.
The Narrow setting also requires a signal to noise ratio (SNR) of 6dB
over the 841-4757Hz frequency range in order to meet the pass criteria.
However this setting uses a lter of 1.6-3.2kHz and a stimulus response
window 4-10ms to reduce the impact of environmental noise on the
recording. This makes this setting particularly appropriate for screening in
noisy environment.
The Any 2 Bands, Any 3 Bands and Any 4 Bands settings require a 6dB
SNR and a minimum signal level of -5dBSPL in each of the stated number
of half octave frequency bands to meet the pass criteria.
In order to meet the pass criteria, all test modes require a minimum total
(wide band) signal level of 0dBSPL and the amount of data collected to
reach the minimum number of sweeps.
