SimScope Overview

The SimScope resembles a sleek electronic stethoscope with binaural
ear tips for listening, chest piece for placing on a patient, and middle
enclosure housing the electronics and replaceable AAA battery.
Patches, disposable disk with tan fabric on top and adhesive tape on
bottom, are placed on the standardized patient or actor to provide site
markers for the SimScope. On the side of the enclosure is a USB port
used for connecting a PC running SimScope software. The software
allows the user to assign sounds from the SimScope library to sites.
Once setup the SimScope chest piece is placed on a patch and the
sound assigned to that site is played. For controls, there are two volume
buttons located on the chest piece labeled plus and minus.

piece. Upon power up a voice prompt plays, "System activation. Mode
one." The SimScope will remain on 90 seconds after the last key press
or sound playback. At shutdown a voice prompt plays, "System

holding the key down will make rapid adjustments. An audible beep is
played during a key press providing feedback as to the direction of
volume change and when the beginning or end of adjustment has been
reached.
