Operation
Tests in memory
The Tymp and Tymp Reflex test results are automatically stored in memory when the test
sequence ends. Audiometric test results are stored in memory when M+ is pressed. A total of
eight memory locations are available with the TM 262. Each test result is assigned a memory
location number in order of sequence obtained starting with Ml and continuing up to M8.
To review the individual test results, press the PAGE button. Note that the screen contains the
appropriate format for each test type stored (e.g., tympanogram or audiogram). The memory
number is located in the upper right-hand corner of each screen. If, for example, only five tests
were stored in memory, only five memory locations can be scanned. The memory can be
scanned a page at a time by pressing the PAGE pushbutton once and observing the result. The
entire memory can be scrolled through by holding the PAGE pushbutton down continuously.
Memory erase
If there is a particular test result that you wish to delete before printing, PAGE to this test result
and press M-. This erases that particular test result from memory. The LCD displays a blank
screen for erased memories with the memory location number located at the top right corner.
Upon exiting from the Erase mode, the stored memories reshuffle and replace the empty
memory with the remaining tests in the order in which they were run. The Erase mode will be
exited once you press the PRINT ALL or ERASE ALL buttons or any pushbutton that would
normally begin the setup of a new test. Please note that when the Erase mode is entered, a
current audiogram is no longer accessible to change or to store new HL values.
NOTE: The instrument is programmed to default to the right ear at 0 dB and 1000 Hz upon
selection of a new audiometric test.
If you should wish to erase all tests from memory, press the M-- (ERASE ALL) pushbutton.
For example, the test results have been printed and you wish to test another person.
NOTE: Be certain that you wish to remove all tests from memory before pressing the M--
pushbutton because the erasure occurs immediately upon pressing the M-- pushbutton!
