Preparing for Testing

Connecting the Peripherals

After you install the drivers for your AVANT Audiometer (See AVANT Audiometer Installation Manual) you

need to AVANT Audiometer connect the rest of the peripherals before testing a patient. Using the pictures

below, locate each of the accessories and plug them into the labeled jacks above

If you are installing the AVANT Audiometer outside a sound booth, connect the Patient Response, Talkback

Mic, Bone Conductor, Speakers and Earphone cables to the inside of the patch panel and then connect your

patch cables from the outside of the patch panel to the AVANT Audiometer as shown. If your booth did not

include patch cables these are readily available from electronics or stereo stores, or from MedRx.

To install the AVANT Audiometer inside the booth, simply reverse the above, connecting the operator side

cables (USB, Operator Mic, and Monitor) to the patch panel. In most booths, the USB cable will need to pass

through the booth and be packed with foam and caulking. Consult your booth installer for specific

instructions.
