Clarion Platinum Sound Processor Musical Instrument User Manual


 
4 Platinum Sound Processor User Guide
The audible alarm is an optional feature that can be activated at the
time of programming. It is designed primarily for children in order to
alert parents and teachers when the system is not transmitting sound
to the implant or the battery is near depletion. If the child’s headpiece
falls off the head, the Processor will begin to beep and the red LED
will flash. When data is again being transmitted, the alarm will stop.
Additionally, when the battery is near depletion and cannot power the
Processor, the alarm will emit a continuous tone until the battery dies
or is replaced.
Auxiliary Jack
The auxiliary jack is located on the side of the Processor near the
control panel. The auxiliary microphone, telecoil pickup and
telephone adapter provided with the CLARION System are connected
here. This jack is also used to connect other external auditory input
sources, such as battery-powered FM systems, tape recorders,
television audio amplifiers or other assistive listening devices.
When the program switch is in the ! position, the headpiece
microphone tester earphones are connected here. These earphones
allow a subjective listening assessment of the quality of the sound as
it is received by the headpiece microphone. Also, intermittencies in
the headpiece cable may be detected.
Your Platinum Sound Processor should be serviced only at Advanced
Bionics. Do not attempt to open or repair the processor.
Unauthorized opening of the processor will void the warranty.
