Data entry

Threshold data and other audiometric parameters may be entered by scanning the barcode(s) on a previous

Audioscan printout or manually using a mouse or an external keyboard. See Mouse, keyboard, barcode scanner,

and Input device operation.

To enter data from a barcode see Barcode data input and:

1. Press the barcode trigger and center the red line on each barcode from a distance of 6 – 8 in. (15 – 20 cm).

The scanner will beep and the Barcode Entry poster will open. A green check mark indicates which data

have been entered. It does not matter in which order the barcodes are scanned or if each is scanned more than

once.

2. Click on [Done] to accept the data checked on the poster.

To enter audiometric data manually:

1. On the Threshold, UCL or RECD entry screens, enter each data point using a mouse or an external keyboard.

Left click the mouse to enter a point. Click again to delete the point. On the keyboard, the arrow keys change

frequency and level and the ENTER key on the numeric keypad enters or deletes a point. The keyboard's

numeric keypad can also be used to type in data.

2. Click on to save the data and exit the entry screen. Click on to exit the entry screen without

saving the data.
