1. Richard Vaughan Getting Connected

2. We are going to divide this into three sections: 1 Connecting Radio Aid Equipment to TVs, Videos

3. 2 Connecting Radio Aid Equipment to Audio Equipment such as Tape recorders, computers, etc

4. 3 Connecting Hearing Aids / Implant Processors to Audio Equipment such as MP3 players, PCs, etc

5. Connecting Radio Aid Equipment to TVs and Videos

6. 1 st We need a Television

7. Then we need to see what connections it has Rear view

8. Then we need to decide which to use The Headphone socket appears to be ideal but it often turns the speakers off when you plug into one. Not much good for other members of the class Headphone socket

9. Using a SCART socket is preferable because the level of signal is consistent, independent of the volume control and it will not affect the speakers so the rest of the class are happy

10. Now we need an adaptor

11. and plug it into the SCART socket

12. Attach the audio lead to the red and white phono sockets

13. The other end plugs directly into the ‘Aux in’ socket of a fmGenie Tx Lead from SCART adaptor plugs in here

14. On a CRM-220 you need to use a Tx Input Adapter and then the Ext Mic socket on the Transmitter To Ext Mic. Socket on Transmitter Lead from SCART adaptor plugs in here

15. On a Campus S there is an auxiliary socket in the base of the unit.

16. There is also a microphone socket under the belt clip but it is difficult to use. Because some 2.5mm plugs are too big to fit into the recess

17. The SmartLink has both auxiliary and microphone sockets on the adaptor that plugs into the base.

18. Connecting Radio Aid Equipment to Audio Equipment such as Tape recorders, computers etc

19. In most instances we will use the headphone socket Some examples

20. For both the CRM-220 and the fmGenie you will need to use the Tx Input Adapter This is so that you have control over the input level

21. If you are connecting to a computer With separate:

22. You will need one of these To split the output

23. On a laptop The speakers are usually integral so you can only plug straight into the headphone socket

24. Connecting Hearing Aids / Implant Processors to Audio Equipment such as MP3 players, PCs, etc

25. Again we will need to use the headphone socket Some examples

26. This time instead of using the Radio Aid we will connect directly to the hearing aids / processor

27. Caution with Freedom!

28. Please note that the correct lead Please don’t try to use an fmGenie lead as it won’t work properly Has a blue plug.

29. If direct input is not available, we can still use the “T” setting... Music Link Neck Loop Silent Headphones
