24
What is data logging?
allows the audiologist to see how often the external is connected to the internal and what programs are being used
25
How is datalogging used?
it has to be programmed in by the audiologist
26
Do you need a specific program for the telecoil?
Yes because it isn't an auto telecoil
27
What internal alarms are on the Naida?
Volume, low battery, program change Program: will give # of beeps for program # (3 beeps=program 3) Volume: beep once for up and once for down, but 2 short beeps to indicate middle Low battery: long beep every 15 min starting 45 min prior to battery dying
28
What are LED lights?
Red, Green, and Orange lights indicating status of implant
29
What are the various orange beeps and what do they indicate?
orange blinks at startup: number of blinks is battery status solid orange: battery is almost depleted Blinks twice every 3 seconds: battery is almost depleted and can't support stimulation Light fades out: Naida is entering standby mode
30
What does a fading orange light mean?
Naida is going into standby
31
What does a blinking orange light mean (every 3 seconds)?
battery is almost depleted
32
What are the various red lights?
One red blink per second: loss of lock Rapid red blinks: intelliLink is activated-wrong implant Solid red: processor is in error condition 5 red blinks: responding to MyPilot "Find paired device" for the right side
33
What do rapid red blinks indicate?
the wrong implant has been connected
34
What do 5 red blinks indicate?
the right implant is responding to the MyPilot "find paired device"
35
What are the various green lights?
blinks in response to loud sounds: processor and mic are responding to sound Blinks at startup and program change: indicates the program it is in Solid green: processor is not yet programmed Four blinks: left processor responding to MyPilot "find paired devices"
36
What does a solid green light mean?
the processor isn't yet programmed
37
What do four green blinks mean?
The left processor is responding to MyPilot "find paired devices"
38
How many microphones are on the Naida?
4: processor mic, rear mic, T-mic 2, headpiece mic
39
What is Ultrazoom?
allows the processor to focus on speaker directly in front of them at a 60* angle (like a miners helmet) can be unilateral or bilateral
40
What is Duophone?
Streams phone call to both ears Applies 6dB of attenuation
41
What is Zoom Control?
Focus on right or left and attenuates sound (by 12dB) on non-focus side
42
How much attenuation is applied to non-focus ear in Zoom Control?
12dB
43
What is QuickSync?
Allows the recipient to change volume or programs in both processors with one touch
44
What is DirectTouch?
Allows the recipient to enter Zoom Control and Duophone and choose focus ear with one touch
45
What are the battery options for Neptune?
Disposable lithium AAA battery, rechargeable AAA battery
46
What is an IP rating
Ingress protection | Tells how water tight and dust proof a processor is
47
What is the Neptunes IP rating and what do the numbers mean?
68: 6 is the highest dust tight rating 8: means AB went above and beyond the standard rating of 7 which is 2 meters depth for 30 min
48
What processor has audible external alarms?
Neptune
49
What do the orange LED lights on the neptune indicate?
battery status: blinks for battery life, solid means it's nearly depleted, fading out means the processor is shutting down
50
What do the green LED lights indicate on the neptune?
blinks in response to loud input, program number, solid green: empty program slot
51
What do the red LED lights on the Neptune indicate?
one blink per second-loss of lock, rapid blink: wrong implant, solid red=error
52
Are LEDs on the Neptune always on?
no-they are a programmable feature | battery status, intellilink, program, and power are always on
53
Are LEDs on the Naida always on?
some are programmable but battery status, intellilink, power and program are always on
