About AC440 Module

AC440 is the PC-based audiometry module for the Affinity
The AC440 software is an independent two-channel audiometer. It features tone audiometry for air and
bone, speech testing and a variety of masking and signal types. Stimuli are presented using the PC
keyboard, mouse or a dedicated audiometry keyboard. Test results are displayed on screen and saved to the
associated database (e.g. Noah, OtoAccess™). They are immediately available for inspection, hearing aid
fitting, printout, export, and so on. The AC440 module can also be operated external to a database in stand-
alone mode.
The module is flexible, enabling the individual clinician to tailor the system according to their specific
preferences. It permits the creation of an unlimited number of personalized test protocol settings and
functions for different purposes and/or for different clinicians working at the same location. The system also
provides you with the option to make individual print layouts, keep reports electronically, and compare actual
curves to previous sessions. These numerous setup options can be very helpful and time saving in the daily
clinical work environment.
In addition to the setup functions, the AC440 also contains counselling tools in order to help both patient and
relatives to get a better understanding of the consequences of hearing impairment and why hearing
amplification may be needed.
