Basic Sound Chamber Tests

95

Measurement Settings

• Coupler Type: The type of coupler being used in making sound chamber

measurements. Selections of CIC and MZ turn on corresponding software
correction factors (see Sections 3.6 and 3.7). A selection of 2CC does not
apply correction factors to the curve but will note a 2-cc coupler was used
in the COR column of the Curve Characteristics Box. The NONE selection
will apply no corrections and leave the COR column blank.

• Distortion: Type of harmonic distortion used in a pure-tone measurement.

Choose between 2nd, 3rd, and TOTAL. See Section 2.3.1.4.

• Noise Red (Tone): Amount of pure-tone noise reduction used. See Section

2.3.1.2.

• Noise Red (Comp): Amount of composite noise reduction used. See

Section 2.3.2.1.

Source Settings

• Output Trans: Transducer used for the measurement. CHAMBER uses the

test box. TELECOIL uses the built-in telecoil or the ANSI 96 telewand.

• Static Tone: Status of individual measurement. Choose SINGLE to emit

a static tone in between composite measurements or pure-tone sweeps.
Choose AVG to emit a three frequency average between other measure-
ments.

• Bias Tone: Amplitude of the bias tone used with Digital Speech. OFF

turns off the bias tone entirely.

• Composite Type: Type of composite signal used. Choose between

STANDARD and CHIRP. See Section 2.3.2.4.

• Composite Filter: Filter used in Composite and Digital Speech measure-

ments. Choose between ANSI, ICRA and FLAT.

Aid Settings

• Aid Type: Type of hearing aid being measured. Choose between

STANDARD (linear), AGC, and ADAPTIVE AGC.

• Avg Freqs: Selection of three frequencies used in a three frequency aver-

age. See Section 2.3.1.1.

• Sweep Start Delay: The amount of time the 7000 test system presents the

first tone in a pure-tone sweep. See Section 2.3.1.3.

• Sweep Meas Delay: The amount of time each subsequent tone is pre-

sented before the measurement is made in a pure-tone sweep. See Section
2.3.1.3.

• Misc Start Delay: The amount of time the 7000 test system presents the

first tone in one of the following measurements: reference test gain mea-
surements (in automated test sequences), averaging, harmonic distortion
measurements, and equivalent input noise measurements. See Section
2.3.1.3.
