Intended use
The microphone is intended to further improve your ability
to follow speech or listen to other audio signals. The essential
performance of the microphone is to transfer signals from
the microphone or other audio devices to a Cochlear sound
processor.
Charge the battery
See figure
• Charge the battery for at least 3 hours before using your
microphone for the first time, even if the battery indicators
indicate it is fully charged.
• During the charging process, the status LED will glow red.
When fully charged and still connected to the charger, the
status LED will glow green with intermittent red flashes
every 2 seconds.
• Charging a flat battery takes around 3 hours. The charger can
be connected overnight; the battery cannot be overcharged.
• For safety reasons, recharge the battery only with chargers
supplied by Cochlear.
Caution: Do not charge the microphone while it is
being worn.
Turn on and off
See figure
1. To turn on your microphone press and hold the ON/OFF
button until the status LED turns green. After releasing the
ON/OFF button, the status LED will flash green.
2. To turn off your microphone press and hold the ON/OFF
button until the status LED turns red.
Note: To protect the microphone when not in use, please
place it in the carrying pouch delivered with the product.
Pair with sound processor
You can pair up to three Cochlear streaming devices with your
Cochlear sound processor. Select a separate channel for each
device paired with the sound processor.
1. Turn off your Cochlear sound processor.
2. Turn on your microphone.
3
3. See figure
Press the pairing button once (twice for channel 2, three
times for channel 3) using the tip of a pen or similar object.
The status LED will flash yellow and the device will be in
pairing mode for 20 seconds. The number of flashes from
the LED in each sequence will correspond to the channel
the microphone is being paired to (two flashes - channel
two, three flashes - channel three).
4. While pairing mode is active, turn on your sound processor.
Successful pairing will be indicated by either an audible
melody played in the sound processor, or by a flashing light
on the sound processor (depending on the type of sound
processor).
Start streaming
1. Turn on the microphone and your sound processor.
2. Press and hold the wireless streaming/program button on
your sound processor for about three seconds.
3. If your sound processor is paired with more than one
streaming device simply press and hold the wireless
streaming/program button a 2nd or 3rd time to access the
2nd or 3rd Cochlear streaming device.
When streaming is activated, an audible melody or a flashing
light (depending on the type of sound processor) will be
followed by streamed audio via the microphone.
Note: You can also start and stop streaming, adjust
volume levels and mute the microphone from a Cochlear
Baha® Remote Control (optional accessory) or a Cochlear
App offering control functionality. You can also start and
stop streaming using a CR230 or CR210 Remote. Ask your
hearing care professional for more information.
Stop streaming
1. Press the wireless streaming/program button on your
sound processor. This will return the sound processor to
the last program used.
Note: If you move out of your microphone's range but
return within the range before 5 minutes have passed, your
sound processor will automatically reconnect and continue
streaming.
Attach the microphone
Clip your microphone on the speaker's jacket, other clothing
or hang it around the neck using the included neckstrap. Place
the microphone within a range of 10 - 40 cm (4 - 16 inches)
from the speaker's mouth. When using the clip, make sure
that the microphone is mounted vertically with the status LED
pointing towards the mouth.
Volume control
Use the volume "+" and "-" buttons to adjust the volume to a
comfortable level.
A short yellow flash of the mute LED indicates every volume
change. A longer yellow flash indicates that the maximum or
minimum volume level has been reached.
Note: The microphone will revert to its default volume
level when restarted.
The volume can in some cases be further adjusted at the
signal source, e.g. by turning the TV volume up or down.
In many cases this will adjust the volume of both streamed
audio (transmitted wirelessly to your sound processor) and
non-streamed audio (sounds reaching the sound processor
microphones in the normal fashion). Of course, this will also
affect listening volume for others in the room.
Mute
1. To mute the signal press the mute button. The mute LED
will flash yellow while muted.
2
2. To unmute the signal press the mute button again.
Note: Restarting the microphone while muted will unmute
the signal.
Volume Control Lock
For special purposes the volume of the microphone can be
locked to a specific level. When the volume control is locked,
it will be fixed to the level it had when the microphone
was powered OFF and it is still possible to use the mute
functionality.
1. Determine the right volume level to lock in place.
2. To lock the volume control switch off the microphone.
3. Press and hold the volume '-' button and at the same time,
press the ON/OFF button until the status LED turns green.
4. Continue holding the volume '-' button until a green-
1
yellow-red sequence is shown on the status LED.
5. To unlock the volume control follow the same 3 steps
described above but hold the volume "+" button instead of
the volume "-" button.
Drop detection
In the event that the microphone falls from at height of more
than 75 cm, a built-in sensor will mute the output streamed
to the sound processor for up to 2 seconds. This is done to
protect you from very loud and unpleasant impact noise
should the unit be dropped during use.
Test Mode
(Test Mode information is intended for hearing care
professionals.)
The Test Mode is primarily intended to be used for paediatric
transparency measurements. The transparency measurement
evaluates if the local (sound processor) and wireless
(microphone) microphones provide equal outputs from the
sound processor when presented with the same 65 dB SPL
input stimulus.
When in Test Mode the microphone is set to omnidirectional
mode with 0 dB gain when placed horizontally in the test
chamber. Please refer to relevant guidelines for performing
transparency measurements.
1. To enter Test Mode switch off the microphone.
2. Press and hold the mute button and at the same time,
press and hold the ON/OFF button until the status LED
turns green
3. Continue holding the mute button until a green-yellow-red
sequence is shown on the status LED.
4. When in Test Mode the status LED will be solid yellow.
5. When entering Test Mode the default volume is applied. If
needed, volume can be adjusted on the microphone until
transparency has been verified.
6. To exit Test Mode and save settings turn off the
microphone and lock the volume control (see the "Volume
Control Lock" section).
Note: Adjustments to reach transparency can be made on
the microphone. For Baha users, the mixing ratio can be
adjusted in the Baha Fitting Software.
