Thank you for purchasing AURICAL SpeechLink 100.
SpeechLink 100 is a desktop or wall-mounted advanced 4-channel
frequency analyzer that wirelessly transfers measurement data to a
PC via Bluetooth. The four channels are used for measuring the
sound pressure level close to a client’s eardrum as well as outside
the ear by the pinna for both ears simultaneously. In this way,
SpeechLink 100 enables you to perform true binaural measurements
providing you with valuable information when you adjust Hearing
Instrument settings in the suppliers’ fitting software.
SpeechLink 100 cannot be used without the OTOsuite Visible Speech
Module PC application. When you have set up SpeechLink 100 for
testing, install the relevant software on your PC. When the PC application has been installed, run the Configuration Wizard and you will
be able to connect to SpeechLink 100. For specific instructions on
how to use SpeechLink 100 with the OTOsuite Visible Speech Module, please see the OTOsuite Visible Speech Module Online Help.
SpeechLink 100 integrates closely with the latest generation of GN
Otometrics test devices by offering real time presentation of test results and full test control directly from a PC with comprehensive
user interface.

SpeechLink 100 (see Section 2.5.4, ‘Inserting the battery” on
page 27).
First time charging
Charging applies only if you use a rechargeable battery.
The rechargeable NiHM battery may not be charged when you receive the SpeechLink 100. You may therefore have to charge the battery for some hours, and preferably overnight, before you switch on
the SpeechLink 100.
A fully discharged battery must be charged in the SpeechLink 100
charger for 14 hours before it is fully charged.
A new rechargeable battery may not reach full capacity until it has
been recharged a couple of times.
Alkaline batteries
If required, the SpeechLink 100 can be powered by a non-chargeable
Alkaline battery.
WARNING:
If you use the SpeechLink 100 with an Alkaline battery, always switch off
the power supply to the charger. Even though charging will normally be
switched off automatically when an Alkaline battery is detected, charging
an Alkaline battery may cause the battery to leak and cause damage to the
SpeechLink 100.

Charging SpeechLink 100
It is recommended that you place SpeechLink 100 on the charger
when it is not in use. This will ensure that the batteries are always
charged, and the charger is a convenient cradle for SpeechLink 100.
If SpeechLink 100 is switched on when you place it on the charger, it
will automatically be switched on again when you remove it from
the charger.
If SpeechLink 100 is switched off when you place it on the charger,
it will be switched off when you remove it from the charger.
Charging status
When SpeechLink 100 is placed on the charger, it will automatically
disconnect from OTOsuite Visible Speech Module and go into charging mode.
Note:
It is not possible to use SpeechLink 100 while it is being charged.
When SpeechLink 100 is placed on the charger, you can follow the
status of the charging process on the front of SpeechLink 100. The
status indicator shows the following states:
Status indicator
Amber, steady
• SpeechLink 100 is charging.
Note that charging is automatically discontinued after 14
hours of charging. This is done to ensure that batteries are
not being over-charged.

“Battery low” indication in OTOsuite Visible Speech
Module
When a battery low state is detected in the SpeechLink 100, this is
signalled by the SpeechLink 100 status indicator by the amber colour
described in ‘‘Amber, flashing” on page 30.
If SpeechLink 100 is connected to the OTOsuite Visible Speech Module, a “Battery low” indication is shown in the bottom right corner
of the screen. Also, a bubble notification will appear.
When the “Battery low” warning occurs, there will be approximately ½ hour of continuous use left. The time left will, however, vary depending on how the SpeechLink 100 is used, and the state of the
battery. If the rechargeable battery is fairly old, the time left will be
shorter than for a new battery.
Note:
For Alkaline batteries, the “Battery low” indication may not leave as much
testing time as a rechargeable battery would.
2.6
Communication with the OTOsuite Visible Speech
Module via Bluetooth
Communication via Bluetooth is established automatically from the
OTOsuite Visible Speech Module, when you wish to use SpeechLink
100.
Note:
1.
SpeechLink 100 must be switched on to be able to communicate with the OTOsuite Visible Speech Module.

Note:
Never immerse the SpeechLink 100 probes into water or other cleaning solutions.
The SpeechLink 100 and charger unit require no preventive maintenance. However, it is recommended that you observe the guidelines
below.
•
The SpeechLink 100 and its component parts are in constant
contact with your patients so care should be taken to ensure
that they are kept clean and free from dust. Use a soft, slightly
damp cloth with a small amount of detergent to clean the unit
and the charger.
•
The only part which is inserted into the ear canal in VSM testing is the silicone tube. These tubes are disposable, and should
only be used once per patient.
There are no special requirements for disposal of the silicone probe
tubes, i.e. they may be discarded according to local regulations.

harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference
by one or more of the following measures:
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
•
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
Note 7:
For use in Canada: To prevent radio interference to the licensed service, this device is intended to be operated indoors and away from
