Classification of hearing loss
 |
Mild < Hearing Level 25 - 40 dB> |
 |
Moderate < Hearing Level 40 - 70dB > |
 |
Severe < Hearing Level 70 - 90dB > |
 |
Profound < Hearing Level 90 dB over > |
Output limiter functions
 |
Integrated output limiter |
 |
Very loud sounds are automatically suppressed in volume. |
 |
ARC for high frequency range |
 |
Limits output sound through a compression system. |
 |
OPC for high frepuency range |
 |
Unnecessarily loud sounds are reliably suppressed. |
 |
Adjusts maximum output gain of hearing aid. |
Time rate AVC
 |
Monitoring sound and adjust hearing aid automatically (
A series only) |
 |
Determine comfort target level in each frequency band (A
series only) |
 |
Determine audibility target level in each frequency band
(A series only) |
 |
Determine level of maximum gain ( A series only) |
 |
Determine maximum output Limits ( A series only) |
Nonlinear adjustment functions
 |
Determines compression ratio of output sound to input sound |
 |
.High-pitched sounds are automatically compressed for easier understanding |
 |
Low-pitched sounds are automatically compressed for easier understanding |
 |
Multi-memory function allows selection of four sets of sound quality characteristics |
 |
Adjust the level of high frequency at which compression starts being activated |
 |
Adjust the level of low frequency at which compression starts being activated |
 |
Loud sounds can be adjjusted to reduce discomfort |
 |
Determines the frequency which divides the frequency range into high and low range |
Tone control functions
 |
Low-pitched sounds or noise can be adjusted to reduce discomfort. |
 |
High-pitched sounds can be adjusted to reduce
discomfort and prevent feedback. |
Noise suppression functions
 |
Digital Automatic Noise suppresor reduces gain
in the low and high range when sustained ambient noise is
encountered. |
 |
.Ambient noise is automatically suppressed to
make speech more discernible |
 |
Outdoor noise can be suppressed |
 |
Noise suppression and induction coil can be
switched internally |
 |
Adjust the noise reduction efficincy |
Sub-gain adjustment functions
 |
Gain can be adjusted for optimum volume. |
Either-way circuit
 |
Hearing aid determines battery polarity by itself, allowing battery to be inserted in either direction |
Induction coil (T)
 |
Catches signals from TV aid, tie-loop, telephone, etc.
and reproduces them with the hearing aid. |
 |
Input balance between microphone and induction coil can be adjusted. |
External input
 |
Sound from TV, VCR or other sources can be input directly. |
