Your hearing system consists of three main elements:
Roger MyLink, your hearing aids and a Roger
microphone, such as Roger inspiro.
The Roger microphone transmits the speaker’s voice
wirelessly to your hearing aids via the Roger MyLink.
You only need to activate the T-Coil in your hearing
aid(s) to hear the speaker’s voice loud and clear in your
ear(s).

2.1 Compatibility
Your hearing aids must feature a T-Coil to receive
speech signals from Roger MyLink. Please ask your
hearing care professional if you are unsure whether
or not your hearing aids have a T-Coil.
A compatible Roger microphone is also required to
pick up the voice of the speaker. In this User Guide,
Roger inspiro is used as an example.
