Audio settings guide: Use the Pre Session Checklist to confirm your microphone and speaker settings are correct before starting your session. Find it on visionflex.com/support.

Check the Audio Settings by right-clicking the Windows volume icon and opening Sound Settings to ensure that the volume of the ri-sonic PCP-USB Stethoscope set to around 80%.

Your Stethoscope came with ‘over ear’ headphones to get the best audio quality during the stethoscope examination. If headphones are not used, feedback can be an issue, and some audio indicators will be difficult to detect. Turn them on by pressing the centre button of the 3 raised buttons on the headphones.

TrueSteth is accessed via the Vision toolbar.

Select your headphones by clicking the ^ up arrow next Preview and select the Headphones device.

  8. Adjust the Gain of the stethoscope to amplify audio. Avoid over-amplifying where the scope shows “clipping”.
  9. Start / Stop the audio feed on your end.
  10. Once the stethoscope is connected and you have verified the volume, you can Share an invitation to other participants in the virtual care call to view the TrueSteth application and hear the audio feed.
