V. First Fitting for the SOUNDBRIDGE
Amadé
The Vibrogram
The Vibrogram is a pure tone audiogram received by
direct stimulation of the inner ear through the VIBRANT
SOUNDBRIDGE. It can be performed with all types of
the VSB Amadé audio processor.
Pure tones are presented through the Amadé and are
adjustable in frequency (from 500Hz to 6000Hz) and
loudness (between 15dB and 105dB).
Measuring the “audiogram” through the implant does
not only provide information about the hearing loss of
the patient in the Vibrogram, but also about the
frequency response of the VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE and
the coupling of the FMT to the inner ear.
THE VIBROGRAM THRESHOLDS ARE RECOMMENDED
TO BE USED AS A STARTING POINT FOR THE FITTING
OF THE VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE SYSTEM
Detecting a connected Amadé Audio
Processor
The first step is the detection of the hearing instrument
via the
detect connected instruments button in the
toolbar (figure 9).
It is not necessary to select the processor first, the
detection automatically recognizes which audio
processor is connected.
NOTE: TROUBLESHOOTING
IF THE AMADÉ IS NOT RECOGNIZED CORRECTLY, THE
FOLLOWING MAY HAVE OCCURRED:
1. The wrong SYMFIT version is installed
To check which version of the VIBRANT MED-EL
SYMFIT database you have installed, go to
”Help”, followed by “Info about Database”.
Here it can be confirmed that SYMFIT 6.1 is
installed to program an Amadé BB, SYMFIT 5.1 or
6.1 is required to program the VSB Amadés.
2. The programming cable is not properly connected
to the processor
Please refer to chapter III on page 11 of this guide
to learn how to connect the programming cable
correctly.
3. The hardware is not installed correctly.
Please refer to the user manual of the HI-PRO
box (or NOAHlink) for assistance.
Make sure that the HI-PRO box is set up on a
serial port COM1 to COM4.
Figure 10 shows that Connexx has detected an Amadé
(in this example
Amadé Hi ) on the side where the audio
processor is connected to the HI-PRO box.
Now it can be differentiated between a first fit session
and a follow up fitting.
