Pre-fitting
To ensure maximum benefit from the Roger system, program the sound processor with the recommended settings according to the table
below.
Model
Recommended sound processor setting
AB Naída CI
Set the Audio Mixing Ratio (Mic/Aux) to 50/50
AB Naída CI via ComPilot
Set the ComPilot Mixing Ratio to 50%
AB Neptune
Set the Audio Mixing Ratio (Mic/Aux) to 50/50
Cochlear Nucleus 7
Set Mixing Ratio to 1:1
Cochlear Nucleus 6 / 5
Set Mixing Ratio to 1:1 and select AutosensitivityTM + ADRO configuration
MED-EL SONNET / Rondo / OPUS 2
None required
For Cochlear’s Nucleus 6, Nucleus 5 or the Advanced Bionics Neptune systems, Roger X* should be programmed. This will disable
AutoConnect and will ensure that the Roger X output impedances match the input impedance of the sound processor. A Roger
Touchscreen Mic or Roger inspiro is required for programming Roger X. Please follow the steps below to program the Roger X:
1. Connect Roger X to the sound processor or ComPilot and switch it on.
Using Roger Touchscreen Mic:
2. Turn Roger Touchscreen Mic on, hold it close to Roger X (less than 10 cm / 4 inches). Then go into [Settings] and select [Roger
receiver settings].
3. Select [CI Profiles]
4. Select the corresponding profile as shown in the table below.
5. Select [EasyGain level].
6. Set the EasyGain to the corresponding value as shown in the table below.
Using Roger inspiro:
2. Turn Roger inspiro on, hold it close to Roger X (less than 10 cm/4 inches) and select the function [Check].
3. Click [Manage], scroll to [CI module] then click [OK].
4. Scroll to the corresponding setting as shown in the table below and click OK.
5. Scroll to [EasyGain] and click [OK].
6. Set the EasyGain to the corresponding value as shown in the table below.

-Older CI systems using MicroLink CI S
Roger 14, Roger 17, Roger 20 and Roger 21 are pre-configured for the compatible sound processor, that setting cannot be changed.

Connect the Roger system to your patient’s CI
Step 1: Attach Roger receiver
Switch all equipment off. If required, remove the standard cover or
hook and attach the adapter to the sound processor. Now attach
the Roger receiver to the sound processor, adapter, battery or to
the external device such as ComPilot or Mini Microphone 2+.
Step 2: Switching on
Ask the user to put on the sound processor and switch it on. If
using ComPilot or Mini Microphone 2+, switch it on.
The sound processor should automatically detect the presence of
the Roger receiver. If this is not the case, manually change to the
recommended program that is used for the external audio source.
Step 3: Connect
Hold the Roger microphone close to the Roger receiver (within 10
cm/4 inches) and press the Connect button on the Roger
microphone. The user should now report they have heard the
confirmation beeps (a low tone followed by a high tone).
If the user did not hear the confirmation beeps, you may need to
manually switch the processor into the DAI, EXT, ComPilot or AUX
program. Repeat this connect process until your patient hears the
beeps.
Step 4: Test the system
Consider testing the user’s speech recognition in quiet with the CI
alone by muting the Roger microphone and standing close to your
patient. Then test the user’s speech recognition through the Roger
microphone while standing at least 3 meters away. Listening
performance should be similar between these two conditions.
Listening test
The simplest way to do a listening test is using the MLx Audio Checker:
Plug the Receiver into the corresponding adapter and then into the MLx Audio Checker as shown in the table below:

Troubleshooting
Most probable cause
Solution
Signal from Roger microphone cannot be heard
Sound processor is set in the wrong program
Roger receiver is not connected to the Roger microphone
Roger microphone is not switched on or is muted
CI user is out of range of the Roger microphone
Batteries are empty
Switch the sound processor to the dedicated DAI, EXT, ComPilot or
AUX program
Connect Roger receiver with the Roger microphone (see Step 3)
Switch on the Roger microphone and make sure it is not muted
Ask the CI user to move closer to the Roger microphone to be
within its operating range
Use fresh batteries or make sure the rechargeable battery pack is
full charged
The environment cannot be heard through the processor’s microphone
Mixing ratio set incorrectly
Microphone sensitivity reduced
Make sure a mixing ratio other than ‘Aux Only’is being utilized for
AB users. Ensure a 1:1 mixing ratio for Cochlear users is utilized
(see recommended sound processor setting table)
Make sure microphone sensitivity has not been reduced in the DAI,
EXT, ComPilot or AUX program
The Roger microphone’s signal suffers from interruptions
The Roger microphone is too far away or shielded by obstacles
(e.g. human body)
Reduce the distance between Roger receiver and the Roger
microphone, and ensure both devices are in line of sight

Programming of EasyGain
If the volume of the Roger system is not satisfactory, you can
change the gain of the receiver via Roger Touchscreen Mic or Roger
inspiro.
How to adjust EasyGain using Roger Touchscreen Mic:
Hold Roger Touchscreen Mic close to Roger receiver (less than 10
cm / 4 inches). Then go into 'Settings' and select 'Roger receiver
settings'. Select 'EasyGain Level' and use the + / - buttons to adjust
the EasyGain in the range of -8 dB to +8 dB. Simply press the '<'
arrow in the top left corner to store the value.
How to adjust the EasyGain using Roger inspiro:
Hold Roger inspiro close to Roger receiver (less than 10 cm/4
inches) and press ‘Check’. Roger receiver information will appear on
the inspiro’s screen.
Press ‘Manage’, scroll with the cursor to EasyGain and press ‘OK’.
Now you can change the gain of the receiver in the range of -8 to
+8 dB.
