Microphone Mini DM-05
Introduction to the Comfort Digisystem
Thank you for choosing Comfort Digisystem.
The products are easy to use, whether you use a hearing
aid or not.
Before using the product, please read this User Manual
carefully.
Using the Microphone Mini DM-05 transmitter, the signal
is transferred digitally, resulting in an excellent clear
sound.
Comfort Digisystem is tted with SecureStream
Technology - a type of digital technology allowing eaves-
drop-secure radio transfer in real time.
Presenting the Microphone Mini DM-05
The Microphone Mini DM-05 is the world's smallest wire-
less microphone for the digital transfer of sound to ear-
pieces. This radio signal is encoded so that no one else
can hear what is being said. The microphone is extremely
discreet and can be simply attached to clothes with a clip.
The Microphone Mini DM-05 is equipped with a voice AGC
(Automatic Gain Control) to maintain a comfortable sound
level at all times.
The DM-05 is pre-programmed with 10 channels.
Additional channels can be used in combination with
other Digisystem products.

Settings
As the DM-05 does not have a display/menu, the unit's
functions are controlled by means of the pairing button.
The current function is displayed by the function indicator.
In addition to the pairing functions (see section
Pairing
),
there is also the facility to activate three modes. To do
this, press the pairing button and hold it down immedi-
ately after starting up the unit (within two seconds). A
selected mode can always be cancelled by switching off
the DM-05 and starting it up again.
Change channel
When the pairing button is held down for ve seconds,
the function indicator shows a constant green light. If you
release the pairing button when the function indicator is
green, the
Change channel
mode is activated. Press the
pairing button briey the number of times corresponding
to the desired channel (1-10), see section
Radio Range
and Channels
. After a pause of two seconds, the entry
process ends and the selected channel is shown by the
same number of green ashes in the function indicator.
Change code
If the pairing button is instead held down for ten seconds,
the function indicator will switch to a red light. If you
release the pairing button when the function indicator
is red,
Change code
mode is activated. Press the pairing
button twice in quick succession to generate a random

code, and at the same time the pairing information is
transmitted (make sure that other Digisystem units to be
paired are activated to receive pairing information). Five
red ashes in the function indicator conrm that the pair-
ing information (channel and code) has been sent.
Factory reset
If the pairing button is instead held down for 20 seconds,
the function indicator will switch to an alternating red
and green light. The
Factory reset
mode is now activated.
To perform a factory reset, press the pairing button once
quickly. The function indicator ashes the number of
times corresponding to the channel, see section
Radio
Range and Channels.
The channel and code are now
reset to the factory settings.
Pairing
In contrast to other Comfort Digisystem transmitters, the
Microphone Mini DM-05 does not have a display and must
therefore be paired using the pairing button, see section
Pairing (via pairing button)
.
Pairing
To use a receiver and transmitter together, they must be
paired. All transmitters and receivers are default paired
at the factory and will work together. To prevent eaves-
dropping, a new code key must be generated and trans-
mitted between the units by pairing.
Transmitting/receiving of pairing information along with a
new code can be performed from any Comfort Digisystem
unit. To pair units without a display, see sections
Pairing
(via pairing button)
and
Pairing (Connector DT-10)
. Pair-
ing information or a new code key can be received by a
several activated units.
Comfort Digisystem units with both transmitters and
9
Microphone Mini DM-05
receivers built-in can be paired separately. When opening
the pairing menu, choose the concerning unit (transmit-
ter/receiver). In units with both transmitters and receiv-
ers, the pairing button controls the transmitter. The code
key is always the same for the transmitter and the re-
ceiver when these are built-in in the same unit. The easi-
est way to get the same code key in the whole Digisystem,
is to generate a new code key from the combined unit; in
that way the built-in receiver gets the same code as the
rest of the system.
Pairing (via menu)
Select Receive info on one unit. Ready to receive pair-
ing info is shown in the display. Select New code on the
other unit; select Yes. Generate new code and send info?
is shown in the display. Select Yes (Now both the channel
and the coding information have been sent, and sound
transfer is eavesdrop-secure). To pair another unit into
your coded system, select Send info instead on one of
your paired units.
Pairing (via pairing button)
(The only way of pairing units without a display, with the
pairing button)
Two brief presses activate the Send info button.
One long press activates the Receive info button.
You can also go straight to the Pairing menu item via the
pairing button. One brief press opens the Pairing menu
on items with a display.
Pairing (Connector DT-10)
The connector cannot send information, only receive
it. To activate the position Receive info, the connector
must be in operation (position I or II) and connected to an
operating hearing aid. The selector is then quickly moved
to position 0 and back to the operating position (I or II).
The connector can now receive pairing info. If no info is

received by the connector, after a short time this returns
automatically to the previous setting.

Radio Range and Channels
The transmitter and receiver have built-in antennas. The
radio range between the units is around 30 metres. This
may however vary depending on the particular environ-
ment you are in. Like all radio systems, Comfort Digisys-
tem communicates on specic channels. If you use two
transmitters on the same channel or a neighbouring one,
there may be interference. Other electronic equipment
can also interfere with radio transmissions.
In most European countries, channels 1-3 (863.250 -
864.750 MHz) may be used for hearing products. How-
ever, you should always check with the frequency assign-
ment authority in your own country which channels are
free and which require a licence.

Troubleshooting
The transmitter and receiver do not start
Charge the transmitter and receiver. Remember to press
the On/Off button down for 2 seconds to switch the unit on.
Check that the charger is connected to the plug socket.
Poor speech intelligibility
The distance between the transmitter and the receiver
may be too long. The range is around 30 metres. The
distance between the microphone and the person who
is talking may also be too long; move the microphone
nearer to the person talking. Try to change channel/envi-
ronment.
Poor range and interference
In some environments involving, e.g., concrete, iron or
sheet metal structures, the range may be reduced. There
may also be equipment nearby causing interference.
Change channel.
No sound
Check that the transmitter and receiver are set to the
same channel.
Loud hissing noise (no sound transfer)
Check that the units are paired.
