Sequence testing

A test sequence is a predefined set of automatic tests which can be performed automatically.
You can perform the immittance tests in a sequence:
• Diagnostic sequence
Tympanometry + Reflex Threshold (auto search) (+ Reflex Decay, if selected from the menu).
• Screening sequence
Tympanometry + Reflex Screening.
