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
total of 12 memory pages are available with the TM286. Each Tymp, Tymp/Reflex or
individual ear in audiometry is assigned a page in memory. They are labelled M1 - M12.

To review the individual test results, press the
word "Page" will be displayed in the center of the LCD. Testing cannot be performed while
the system is in the Page Mode. The memory number is located in the upper right-hand

pressed and two audiogram tests are stored in memory, they will combine under the
following conditions. There must be one left test and one right test sequentially stored in
memory. A left and right audiometric pair of tests will not be combined if they are
separated in the memory by a Tymp test. Therefore, when tests are erased, the result
could cause a change in (left, right) or (right, left) sequence with Audiometric tests. This
would result in the wrong audiometric tests being combined when PRINT ALL
selected. Prior to selecting PRINT ALL
