I have an 'Asra' computer based audiometer which I have checked annually by an external company. I run through a check before each session of use (I check the headphone codes and 3 frequencies etc); however in the HSE guidance notes it refers to additional checks. I would be grateful if anyone can tell me what these might be, or what checks they perform ??
