the sCoLA™ FM systeM
The SCOLA™ FM system

consists of a SCOLA trans-
mitter and one or two SCOLA FLEX or SCOLA FLEX-i
receivers.
The SCOLA transmitter’s primary function is to trans-
mit sound signals from the microphone or audio equip-
ment to the receiver. The operating range

is up to
22-33 yards, depending on the surroundings.
The receiver’s function is to receive sound signals from
a SCOLA transmitter or other FM transmitters.
For Widex behind-the-ear hearing aids, the shoe and
receiver are assembled to form an integrated unit,
henceforth referred to as an FM shoe. For use with oth-
er behind-the-ear hearing aid types, the receiver (only
SCOLA FLEX) can be provided with a universal three-
pin plug to fit an audio shoe.
The SCOLA FLEX-i receiver is connected directly to the
hearing aid without the use of any FM shoe.
The SCOLA transmitter and receiver must be on the
same channel to work together.
