Personalising settings
You can use your remote assistant to personalise your processor
settings (e.g. change the processor microphone direction) to suit your
listening needs. You can change the processor settings only when the
processor is turned on and within operating distance. If the remote
assistant is paired with two processors, both processors need to be
turned on and within operating distance.
You can also personalise your remote assistant settings (e.g. change the
brightness of the remote assistant display).
If you accidentally change a processor setting, or you wish to return
to the default settings, you can easily reset processor and program
settings to the values set by your clinician. You can also reset remote
assistant settings to the default settings.
To personalise your processor or remote assistant settings:

Turn on your processor and ensure that it is within operating
distance.
2.
From the Home screen, press the Cochlear key.
3.
To select the processor settings menu, press the upper left soft
key. To select the remote assistant settings menu, press the upper
right soft key.

Changing the telecoil and microphone mixing ratio
Mixing allows you to combine input from more than one audio input
source (e.g. telecoil and microphones).
The telecoil and microphone mixing ratio specifies the ratio of the
telecoil input in relation to the microphone input.
To focus more on the telecoil input and reduce background sounds,
increase the mixing ratio. To hear more background sounds while using
the telecoil, decrease the mixing ratio.
You can set the mixing ratio for the telecoil and microphone to any of
the following:
•
1:1 (50% telecoil input: 50% microphone input).
•
2:1 (67% telecoil input: 33% microphone input).
•
3:1 (75% telecoil input: 25% microphone input).
•
4:1 (80% telecoil input: 20% microphone input).
•
5:1 (83% telecoil input: 17% microphone input).
•
6:1 (86% telecoil input: 14% microphone input).
•
100% telecoil input.
When you set telecoil input to 100%, you see the letter 'T' on the
mixing ratio screen.
To increase or decrease the mixing ratio for the telecoil and microphone:
1.
Select the telecoil and microphone mixing ratio screen from the
processor settings menu.

Protecting your remote assistant
To protect your remote assistant against impact and scratches, Cochlear
recommends that you use a protective case. The following protective
cases are available from Cochlear:
•
Cochlear™ Nucleus® CR100 Series Belt Case: You can insert the
remote assistant into the belt case and attach it to your belt. The
belt case can be rotated to adjust its position on the belt. When
you want to use your remote assistant, remove it from the belt
case.
Figure 77: Remote assistant belt case
•
Cochlear™ Nucleus® CR100 Series Leather Case: The leather case
provides you with the flexibility of either attaching the remote
assistant to your belt, or carrying it in your handbag or pocket. You
can use and charge the remote assistant while it is in the leather
case.

•
Cochlear™ Nucleus® CR100 Series Protective Case: This is a flexible
rubber case into which you can insert the remote assistant. It is
suitable for use by both children and adults, and is available in a
choice of colours. The protective case can be worn around the
neck using the remote assistant lanyard. You can use and charge
the remote assistant while it is in the protective case.
Figure 79: Protective case
When using the remote assistant while it is in a protective case,
you may notice a slight decrease in the operating range. If this
happens, either remove the remote assistant from the case when
using it, or hold the case close to your processor.
When the remote assistant is attached to your belt, certain
arm positions (e.g. arm swinging past the belt when walking)
may affect communication. If this happens, remove the remote
assistant from the case when using it.
Using the remote assistant lanyard
The Cochlear™ Nucleus® CR100 Series Lanyard allows you to wear the
remote assistant around your neck.
You can attach the lanyard to the remote assistant using the hole
located on the back of the remote assistant. When threading the
lanyard, always insert the lanyard loop through the bottom hole, which
is the hole just above the personal identification label.

Using your remote assistant to
troubleshoot your processor
The following features on your remote assistant can help you
troubleshoot your processor:
•
Visual alerts that appear on your remote assistant display.
Figure 81: Coil off visual alert
•
Your processor status indicator.
•
The processor troubleshooting guide on your remote assistant.
For information on how to troubleshoot your processor, refer to
the CP810 and CR110 Troubleshooting Guide provided with your
processor documentation.
Checking your processor coil
Your remote assistant has an in-built coil sensor that allows you to
check if the coil connected to your processor is receiving sound signals
from your processor.
To check the coil using the coil sensor:
1.
Remove the coil from the head. Do not use the coil sensor when
the coil is on the head.
2.
Place the coil on the coil sensor guides on the back of your
remote assistant. The coil sensor guides are located on the
sides of the product information label. Make sure that the coil is
properly aligned with the coil sensor guides.

Figure 82: Placing the coil on the coil sensor guides
If the coil is receiving sound signals from your processor, the
following animation appears on your remote assistant display:
Figure 83: Coil sensor animation
This, however, is only an indication that the coil is receiving sound
signals and does not confirm that the coil is functioning properly.
If the coil is not receiving sound signals, no response is shown on
your remote assistant display.
Once you move the coil away from your remote assistant, the
remote assistant returns to its previous display.

Technical information
The remote assistant wireless communication link operates in the 2.4
GHz ISM band using GFSK (Gaussian Frequency Shift Keying) on 10
channels. The link uses a proprietary bi-directional communication
protocol and operates over a distance of up to 2m from the CP810
processor. When interference is present, the wireless communication
link switches between the 10 channels to find a channel where the
interference least affects the operation of the link. The remote assistant
indicates via its display and light indicator when the processor is not
within operating distance, and when the link has been interrupted due
to interference. For more information, see Holding and operating your
remote assistant in this user guide.
