Getting Started; Connecting The Unit - Cochlear Baha Cordelle II Manual Del Usaurio

Getting started

Connecting the unit

A plastic snap connector is mounted to the
head worn unit. It is designed to snap onto the
abutment and hold the head worn unit securely
in place. The body worn unit is equipped with a
clip so you can attach the unit to your clothes.
The audio cord is connected by attaching the
angulated plug to the body worn unit and the
straight plug to the head worn unit. The three-pin
plug is reversible.
On/Off
See figure
Off When the volume control is in the 0
position it is off. You will feel a "click" as it goes
into off mode.
On For the sound processor to be on, the
volume control must be set to a position higher
than 0. You will feel a click as the sound processor
moves from off mode to on mode.
Volume control If you turn the volume control
upwards the volume increases, and if you turn it
downwards it will decrease.
Tone switch
See figure
The tone switch controls the frequency response.
The switch can be set in three different positions.
N = Normal. This gives the widest frequency
response.
H = High frequency emphasis. This setting reduces
low frequency sounds, which often can
improve speech understanding.
L = Low frequency emphasis. This position is often
useful during the first period after fitting as
it allows you to gradually get used to high
frequency sounds you have not heard in a long
time.
The tone switch is effective for all inputs
(microphone, telecoil and accessories connected
via the direct audio input).

Program switch
See figure
The body worn unit is equipped with a program
switch for the telecoil function. The telecoil
improves sound quality and speech understanding
when using telephones in homes where there
are personal loop systems installed and in other
buildings with loop facilities.
There are three programs available. "M" is for
listening with the microphone only. In program
"M/T" both the microphone and telecoil are
active. In program "T" only the telecoil is active.
Trim controls
There are two trim controls on the back of the
body worn unit. These are to be adjusted by
audiologists only. When fitting the Cordelle II, the
audiologist will set these trimmers to suit your
needs.
Telephones and mobiles
Hold the telephone or mobile "upside down" close
to the microphone (using the M program) or close
to the telecoil (if using the MT or T program) as
seen to the left. The telecoil is placed vertically,
close to the electrical input. Please note the
magnetic field from many modern phones is not
strong enough to be picked up by the telecoil.
Some phones can be equipped with a neck-loop
to reinforce the magnetic field. It is important that
neither you, nor the phone, touches the sound
processor as this may cause feedback ("whistling").
