➌ Observe the indicators Description ‑ The transmitter is starting up. If after a few seconds, both indicators flash blue, the transmitter is on but not paired to any hearing instrument. Refer to the section "Pairing hearing instruments". other Refer to the section "Power and TV indicator".
Connecting to your electronic device You can connect the transmitter to your electronic device with the TOSLINK cable or with the RCA cable. We recommend using the TOSLINK connection. Use the supplied cables and adapters.
Page 14
We recommend to connect either the TOSLINK input or the RCA input of the transmitter. If both inputs of the transmitter are used, the electronic device that is connected via TOSLINK cable has the higher priority and only the audio signal of this device will be streamed to your hearing instruments.
Page 15
TOSLINK connection Before connecting the cable, remove the protection caps from the TOSLINK cable plugs. Plug the cable into the TOSLINK input of your transmitter and into the TOSLINK (optical audio) output of your electronic device. To prevent the TOSLINK cable from breaking, do not forcefully bend it.
Page 16
Further information: ● Refer to the electronic device's manual: Set the output format of the electronic device to either PCM (pulse‑code modulation) or Dolby Digital*. ® ● The TOSLINK output of your transmitter may be used to connect further TOSLINK devices such as external Dolby decoders or surround sound systems.
Page 17
RCA connection Plug the cable into the RCA connections of your transmitter. Plug the other side of the cable into the RCA output of the electronic device. Or via adapter into the SCART or mini jack output of the electronic device.
Page 18
Further information: ● Without adapter: The RCA output of the electronic device is typically marked "L‑R AUDIO OUT" and found on the back or control panel. ● With SCART adapter: The audio signal can depend on the source selected on the electronic device. For example some TVs will only make TV sound available on the SCART output, but not the sound from a connected DVD player.
Page 19
if the headphone output is used. So that sound is only heard through the hearing instruments. ● Refer to the electronic device's manual: Set the output format of the electronic device to analog audio or uncompressed audio.
Pairing hearing instruments Your hearing instruments need to be paired once with the transmitter. After that, the pairing is saved in the hearing instruments and remembered each time they are turned on. Ensure that the transmitter is connected to the power supply.
Page 21
Place both hearing instruments close to, or on top of the transmitter. The pairing process starts automatically. Observe the indicators: Description If pairing is completed, both indicators are blue for about 30 seconds. other Refer to the section "Power and TV indicator".
Page 22
Multiple users: ● This transmitter can be paired to multiple hearing instruments. All users will be able to hear the same sound. ● To clear the pairings of one current user, first reset the transmitter to factory settings. This will clear the pairings of all users.
Daily use Using the transmitter Function Description Start audio Switch your hearing instruments to the streaming transmitter mode or change to the dedicated hearing program. Stop audio Quit transmitter mode or switch to any other streaming hearing program in your hearing instruments. Adjust Use the controls of your hearing instruments.
Page 24
Further information: ● Depending on your hearing instruments' type and configuration, you can change their mode or hearing program with the hearing instruments' controls (e. g. push button), or with a smartphone app, or with a dedicated remote control. Refer to the hearing instruments' user guide for details.
Page 25
● The volume of the streamed audio signal is normally not affected by volume adjustments from the TV remote control. ● Your Hearing Care Professional can adjust the mix of the audio streaming signal with surrounding sounds according to your preference.
