A METHOD AND A DEVICE FOR HEARING-RELATED EXAMINATION

摘要

Method for hearing-related examination comprising the steps of generating sound signals and/or electrical signals in an examination unit (12). The method includes the steps of removably connecting the examination unit (12) as a modular unit to a base unit (11) and removably connecting a function card (13) to the base unit (11). Further steps are sending control signals from the function card (13) to the examination/module unit (12) for performing a specific examination, and obtaining test result data in the examination unit (12) and collecting said test result data to the function card for storage therein. The device comprises a base unit (11) having a display (15), input means (16; 17; 45) and output means (15) for performing the examination. The base unit (11) comprises a first interface (14) receiving a function card (13) and the function card (13) comprises a first control unit (33), a data memory (31) and a program memory (32) a, said program memory storing software for performing an examination and said data memory (31) storing data related to the examination. The base unit (11) comprises a second in-terface (28) receiving at least one modular unit (12) having a micro controller (29), examination output and input means, and the data memory (31) of the function card is connected to said micro controller (29) of the modular unit for collecting and storing examination data. ® KIPO & WIPO 2009
