Teleform is a character recognition program used by the Data Processor to scan completed TISS forms before importing the data into the TISS database. We use a network scanner for this.

Hardware

Teleform Workstation

The Scanner PC (workstation: HSJJ387X4510QCP) in Trish's office has Teleform installed on it.

Multifunction Printer/Scanner

Software

General Info

The Teleform suite consists of a number of separate programs or modules to support the designing and processing of data collection forms.

The software package is installed locally to:

  • C:\Program Files (x86)\Cardiff\TeleForm

Teleform Version

Files Used

The programs used with regular frequency are:

Description Executable
Designer tfdesign.exe
Scan Station tfscnstn.exe
Reader tfreader.exe
Verifier tfverify.exe

The Data Processor uses all of the above executable files and requires short-cuts to be available on the desktop.

Designer

New form are developed and existing forms are modified using Designer. Once the design has been completed and activated, the form serves as a master template against which data collection forms of that set are evaluated and verified after they are scanned. The Scan Station, Reader, and Verifier are collectively used for this purpose.
