How does SCOLA classmate work?
During the first minute after SCOLA
classmate
has
been turned on, the synchronisation channel can be
programmed into the memory. This is done with a
SCOLA
teach , SCOLA teach TT or SCOLA programmer .
After one minute, the SCOLA classmate starts to send
out the channel synchronisation signal. This signal
will be repeated 3 times per second and will set all
SCOLA
flex or Amigo ear-level FM receivers within
range to the programmed channel.
The range of the signal is approximately 1.5 m.
SCOLA classmate is powered by the external power
supply. However, an internal rechargeable back-up
battery will supply uninterrupted power to the unit
for 48 hours if the mains power is cut off (for example
if the wall outlet is needed for another purpose).
The back-up battery is continuously charged when
the power supply is connected to the mains. When
connected the first time, it will take about 10 hours
before the battery is fully charged.
NOTE: The back-up battery can / may only be replaced
by authorised Widex service personnel.
Response to synchronisation signals
A SCOLA flex that has gone into “sleep” mode after
a period of not receiving any transmission signal from
an FM transmitter will first “wake up” and then be
synchronised to the channel used in the classroom.
In the standard SCOLA flex setting, a beep will be
heard every time the receiver receives a synchronisa-
tion signal. The alternative is a setting where a beep
is only generated when the SCOLA
flex
channel is
changed. Please contact the hearing healthcare
professional, referring to the Programming guide for
SCOLA
programmer and SCOLA flex and Programming
guide for teachers and professionals.
With Widex Integrated Signal Processing (ISP) hearing
aids set to work with SCOLA
flex
, the hearing aid’s
direct audio program is automatically switched on
and off, controlled by the SCOLA
flex
.
During breaks between lessons, the ISP hearing aid will
work in, for example, its standard acoustic program
without the user having to operate the FM switch or
remove the SCOLA
flex from the hearing aid. When
the user returns to the lesson, the SCOLA
classmate
will set the SCOLA flex to the channel used in that
classroom and switch on the direct audio program,
allowing the FM signal to become audible. Fully au-
tomatically.
