Before using REM AutoFit
Hearing aid settings during measurement
Manual
The manual process in REM AutoFit lets you fine-tune the hearing aid gain to
get even closer to target or to personalise the fitting based on the client's
own comments. This can be done after or instead of the automatic process.
Any manual fine-tuning performed in REM AutoFit applies to the current
program and linked programs in the same way as manual fine-tuning in
other tools.

a.
Select the desired measurement input levels: 50, 65 or 80 dB.
b.
If there is a previous measurement displayed from Automatic or
Manual, use the fine-tuning controls to fine-tune the gain based on
the measurement.
c.
Instruct the client to face the loudspeaker and remain still during the
measurement sequence.
d.
Click Start on the relevant side to measure one side. Click Both to mea-
sure both sides. Depending on the REM system, binaural measurement
may take place simultaneously or sequentially. The system automati-
cally turns off the signal when the measurements are complete. If you
need to stop the measurement prior to completion, click Stop.
e.
If you are satisfied with the aided measurements, proceed to Step 4:
Finish.
f.
To further fine-tune the gain, repeat points b-f.
Check the Help file for some useful troubleshooting tips if you cannot reach
the prescribed target. Note: If the selected acoustics are too open, the mea-
sured gain graphs on the Fitting step in Genie/Genie 2 will show a lack of
gain in the high frequencies due to the risk of feedback. In this case, try a
more closed dome or earmould.
