Getting to know your TV Connector Congratulations on choosing the Phonak TV Connector. The TV Connector allows you to connect your hearing aids to your TV or other entertainment/communication devices. Please read this user guide carefully to discover how to benefit from the features of your TV Connector. The intended use of the TV Connector is to establish a wireless connection between your hearing aids and a TV (or any other audio source). It sends audio signals within a 15 meter (50 ft) radius wirelessly to the hearing aids. If you have any questions, please consult your hearing care professional or go to www.phonak.com/tvconnector Phonak TV Connector is only compatible with Audéo B-Direct wireless hearing aids. Phonak – life is on www.phonak.com Audio cable USB cable Power plug CE mark applied: 2017 2.1 Device description Hearing aid Up to 15 meters (50 ft) TV Connector Line-of-sight between your hearing aids and the TV Connector is not required. However, environmental interference like walls or furniture may reduce the operating range. Connect button Indicator light (LED) microUSB power socket Audio socket for optical (Toslink) or 3.5mm jack cable 3. Getting started 3.1 Setting up the power supply 1. Insert the smaller end of the USB cable into the free socket of the TV Connector. 2. Insert the larger end of the USB cable into the power supply unit. 3. Plug the power supply unit into the socket outlet of the mains power. Upon the very first time powering the device, the connection to the hearing aids will be initiated automatically and the hearing aids will play a confirmation tone. 4. Alternatively the TV Connector can be powered via USB cable on the TV. Insert the larger end of the USB cable into the USB socket of the TV. 3.2 Supported audio connections The TV Connector can be connected to any audio source such as a TV, PC or HiFi system. It supports two different audio cable inputs: Optical (Toslink) or Analog. Both of the audio cables can be plugged into the dedicated audio socket on the TV Connector. Optical (Toslink) Digital signal Fiber optic cable 3.3 Connecting to an audio device Connect the free end of the optical (Toslink) cable into the optical OUTPUT of your TV or alternative audio device. Analog Analog signal 3.5 mm jack (optional) For best results, we recommend to use the already attached optical (Toslink) connection, if available on your TV or alternative audio device. Always connect the chosen audio cable of the TV Connector to the audio OUTPUT of your TV or alternative audio device! 10 11 3.4 Optional: Connecting to an audio device using the headset socket If the TV or audio device does not support digital audio OUTPUT (as shown in chapter 3.3) replace the supplied optical (Toslink) cable on the TV Connector with the “Analog 3.5mm jack” cable and insert the other end into the headset output socket of your TV (or audio device). 3.5 Connecting the TV Connector to the hearing aids When the TV Connector is plugged into a power source the very first time upon installation, the connection to the hearing aids will be initiated automatically and the hearing aids will play a confirmation tone. To connect new hearing aids to the TV Connector follow the steps: button J Press the Connect on the back, and the indicator light will start rapidly blinking blue. J Make sure the hearing aids are switched on and within 1 meter (3 ft) of the TV Connector. Some TVs will switch off their loudspeakers when using the headset socket – the TV will not be audible for other people. 12 13 4. Daily use of the TV Connector J You will hear a confirmation beep in your hearing aids when the connection was successful. This may take up to 10 seconds. The TV Connector will connect to any compatible hearing aid, which is within the range during the connection process. They will be automatically connected again after the initial connection process. 14 The TV Connector can only receive and transmit audio in mono or stereo. Please make sure that no Dolby digital or DTS audio settings are used by the TV (or audio device). If present, these audio signals will be indicated by a red LED indicator light on the TV Connector. Please change the audio signal to stereo (PCM) in the audio settings menu of the TV. Switch ON your TV (or alternative audio device).
