Fitting Guide | Roger and MED-EL audio processors SONNET, RONDO and OPUS 2 2
Pre-fitting
Roger X must
NOT
be programmed when used with MED-EL audio processors systems.
Sensitivity and Volume settings of MED-EL audio processors affect the microphone and external input (Roger or Telecoil) in the
same way.
Getting started
Step 1: Attach Roger X
Switch all equipment off.
SONNET / OPUS 2:
Remove the standard battery pack cover of the
SONNET / OPUS
2
and attach the FM battery pack cover to the audio processor.
Now attach Roger X to the FM battery pack cover.
RONDO:
Attach the Mini Battery Pack to the RONDO. Now attach Roger
X to the Mini Battery Pack.
Step 2: Switching on
Ask your patient to put on the audio processor and switch it on.
Roger X will then automatically adjust its output to match the
input of the audio processor . This process may take up to one
minute. Warn your patient that Roger X plays one or two beeps
during this adjustment procedure, which may be a little
unpleasant for them. After the first activation, Roger X stores
the output value and only one short beep will be played at each
start-up thereafter. Finally switch on the Roger microphone.
Step 3: Connect
Hold the Roger microphone close to Roger X (within
10 cm/4 inches) and press the Connect button. Your patient
should now report that he/she has heard the confirmation beeps
(a low tone followed by a high tone).
If your patient didn’t hear the confirmation beeps, you may need
to manually switch the processor into the DAI program. Repeat
this connect process until your patient hears the beeps.
Step 4: Test the system
Test the patient’s speech recognition in quiet with the CI alone
by muting the Roger microphone and standing close to your
patient. Then test the patient’s speech recognition through the
Roger microphone while standing at least 3 meters (10 ft.) away.
Listening performance should be similar between these two
conditions.
Troubleshooting
Signal from Roger microphone cannot be heard
Roger X is not connected to the Roger microphone
Roger microphone is not switched on or is muted
CI user is out of range of the Roger microphone
Batteries not suitable
Connect Roger X with the Roger microphone (see Step 3)
Switch on the Roger microphone and make sure it is not muted
(refer to User Guide)
The CI user has to move closer to the Roger microphone to be
within its operating range
Please use dedicated high power batteries or rechargeable
batteries
Processor microphones are attenuated
Microphone sensitivity
Make sure microphone sensitivity has not been reduced in the
DAI program
The Roger microphone’s signal suffers from interruptions
The Roger microphone is too far away or shielded by obstacles
(e.g. human body)
Reduce the distance between Roger X and the Roger
microphone, and ensure both devices are in line of sight.
