User Interface Navigation 

This section provides basic instructions on navigating through the ALGO 3i screener’s software 
interface and on entering infant data in the device.  Detailed instructions on performing a screen 

follow in Chapter V. ALGO 3i Screening Procedure. 

Description of Keys 

The ALGO 3i screener has an intuitive, icon-based user interface which is easy to navigate. The 

device has six navigation buttons: 

 

Toggle Key 

X Key  

? Key  

OK Key  

Up/Down 

Arrow Keys  

 

Up/Down arrow keys: These keys control the movement within the user interface, enabling the 

user to move between and select from the available options presented in the display. 

Toggle key: This large key enables up/down/left/right movements, and is primarily used to 

scroll through the alphanumeric keypad to input data and passwords. 

OK key: This green key controls the “YES”, “OK”, and “CONFIRM” functions, which allow a 

command to be executed. 

X key: This red key controls the “NO”, “STOP”, and “PAUSE” functions, which allow a 

command to be stopped, screening to be paused, or allows the user to return directly to the 

MainMenu. 

? key: This key controls the Help system and will access the section of the ALGO 3i screener’s  

help system corresponding to the area of the interface where the user is located. The user can 

scroll through the Help system to access different information as desired. 

The display will always indicate to the user which keys are used to select, scroll, advance to the 

next window, or go back to the previous window. 

Examples: 

 

 

Go Back (to MainMenu)
