If the LED is blinking red:
-
Is the transmitter switch depressed?
-
Is the receiver on a different channel to the transmitter
-
Is the mic correctly plugged in to the transmitter?
-
Is the cord correctly plugged in to the receiver?
If the red light still does not come on:
Test the receiver by using an Oticon listening testing set.
Alternatively, if you have a hearing aid and stetoclips available, you
could connect the receiver to the audio shoe on the hearing aid and
listen to it using the stetoclips.
If the LED now comes on, this indicates that there is a problem with
the processor itself. In this case, you need to contact the CI centre.
Try changing the channel if there is poor sound quality or
interference.

need replacing?
•
Is the microphone on the transmitter working?
•
Are the FM settings set appropriately?
•
Has the processor program been set up for FM?
•
Have you observed areas in the classroom that can cause dead
spots in the transmission by checking with the FM system
yourself?
