Understanding the Data Logging Information:
The top of the data logging screen indicates:
• Logging Start : The date the data logging began, which represents the last
time the settings were saved to the hearing instruments.
• Hours of use : The total number of hours of use since the start date.
• Average use : The average number of hours the devices were used.
The pie chart displays the use of each autoPro2 destination or AutoMic program and each
manual program. Each color represents one of the two autoPro2 destinations. Whenever
manual programs (P2/P3/P4) are available, they are displayed as additional slices of the
pie chart.
When you hover the mouse over the pie chart, a tool tip appears, displaying the actual
settings and percentages of each program and destination. The table beside the pie chart
shows how much time the client has spent in autoPro2 (for Element 16), autoMic (for
Element 8) and the assigned manual programs.
For Element 16:
A bar graph at the bottom of the screen provides information about volume control
adjustments while the client was in autoPro2. The 0 dB line represents the ideal volume
indicator setting. Depending on the average used VC position, a bar above or below the 0
dB line indicates if the patient increased or decreased the actual volume level relative to the
ideal VC position.
The table between the volume control information bars shows the percentage of time the
client spent in each autoPro2 destination, as seen below:
Based on the recorded adjustments of the volume control settings, you can choose to
adjust the average volume control setting deviation from the ideal volume control.
The volume control changes can be applied to each autoPro2 program individually, or
simultaneously, in the Apply Indicated Changes to section.
To change the volume control settings:
1. Check the boxes beside the destinations to which volume control changes should be
applied, as seen to the right.
2. To apply the changes, click Right Ear Only, Left Ear Only or Both Ears. This will
automatically correct the overall gain to adjust for the volume control corrections in
autoPro2.
Note: The decision on which adjustments to apply should be based not only on the
recorded hearing aid data but also on discussions with the client.
