Bluetooth® dongle
®
• Bluetooth® dongle and ConnexxLink need to
be within a range of 32 feet (10m).
• The green LED of the Bluetooth® dongle
blinks when the Bluetooth® dongle is searching for a
connection to ConnexxLink.
• The green LED of the Bluetooth® dongle is constantly lit when a
connection to ConnexxLink is established.
• Use only the Bluetooth® dongle delivered with your
ConnexxLink.
Wearing ConnexxLink
The patient wears the hearing instruments
during programming.
• Place ConnexxLink around the patients neck
using the neckloop.
• The patient should maintain a forward facing
head position, same direction as ConnexxLink.
Programming on the table
If you want to pre-configure the hearing
instruments you can also have ConnexxLink and
the hearing instruments lying on the table.
• Place the hearing instruments within the
neckloop when programming on the table.
Connecting ConnexxLink
and Bluetooth® dongle
