NOTE: Three different Contra phones can be purchased for use with the easyTymp. The
Contra phones need to be calibrated to the Contra Probe before use. If a new Contra
phone should be used a recalibration of the Contra Probe is necessary. We strongly
advise against using an uncalibrated Contra Phone! Uncalibrated devices may lead to
faulty measurements and possibly damage the patient's hearing.
4.2.2 Test cavities
The easyTymp comes with a separate test cavity which can be used to quickly check the
probe calibration validity. The test cavity includes 0.2 ml, 0.5 ml, 2.0 ml and 5.0 ml cylinders.
We strongly recommend calibrating each probe at least once a year. If a probe is handled
roughly (e.g. has fallen onto a hard surface) it might need to be calibrated again.
Calibration values of the probe are stored in the probe itself. Therefore probes can be
exchanged at all times.

Operation Manual easyTymp
Use the Allen key to adjust the cradle on the Figure 29.
NOTE: An Allen key is enclosed in the packaging of the eartip
box to enable adjustment of the pair of adjustable feet located
on the bottom of the cradle.
Please ensure that the Allen key is only used to adjust the setting
of the adjustable feet on the cradle and that this tool is not used
for any other purpose on the easyTymp unit.
In order to mount the cradle on the wall, an optional wall
mount kit is available (Figure 30).
To measure Contralateral Reflexes it is necessary to connect
the Contra Probe to the easyTymp as described previously.
Find the jack labeled "Contra" on the Contra Probe. Insert the
Contralateral transducer into this jack (Figure 18).
The Contra Probe must be calibrated to the selected Contralateral
transducer type. This calibration is already completed if the Contra
Probe and transducer are purchased at the same time. Otherwise
the Contra Probe and transducer need to be sent to an authorized
service center to perform the calibration.
