Connect the Roger system to your patient’s CI
Step 1: Attach Roger receiver
Switch all equipment off. If required, remove the standard cover or
hook and attach the adapter to the sound processor. Now attach
the Roger receiver to the sound processor, adapter, battery or to
the external device such as ComPilot or Mini Microphone 2+.
Step 2: Switching on
Ask the user to put on the sound processor and switch it on. If
using ComPilot or Mini Microphone 2+, switch it on.
The sound processor should automatically detect the presence of
the Roger receiver. If this is not the case, manually change to the
recommended program that is used for the external audio source.
Step 3: Connect
Hold the Roger microphone close to the Roger receiver (within 10
cm/4 inches) and press the Connect button on the Roger
microphone. The user should now report they have heard the
confirmation beeps (a low tone followed by a high tone).
If the user did not hear the confirmation beeps, you may need to
manually switch the processor into the DAI, EXT, ComPilot or AUX
program. Repeat this connect process until your patient hears the
beeps.
Step 4: Test the system
Consider testing the
user’s
speech recognition in quiet with the CI
alone by muting the Roger microphone and standing close to your
patient. Then test the
user’s
speech recognition through the Roger
microphone while standing at least 3 meters away. Listening
performance should be similar between these two conditions.
Listening test
The simplest way to do a listening test is using the MLx Audio Checker:
Plug the Receiver into the corresponding adapter and then into the MLx Audio Checker as shown in the table below:
