Connecting to External Audio Sources
Your Indigo hearing devices may feature
optional direct audio input (DAI) to connect
to other audio sources such as a stereo or
television. You will need to purchase the
direct audio input system and a connector
cord from your hearing healthcare professional before
you can connect to external audio sources.
DAI can also be used to fit your hearing instruments with
an assistive listening device, such as an FM system,
which you may purchase to improve listening in difficult
situations.
Note: If your hearing instruments are the small BTE style
that requires size 10 batteries (Moda), your hearing
instruments are not compatible with direct audio input,
MicroLink MLx or an FM system. However, hearing
instruments that use size 13 batteries are compatible.
Refer to your battery package for the size of your
hearing instrument batteries or consult with your
hearing healthcare professional for more information.
Listening Over Distance
Your Indigo hearing instruments may be compatible with
Phonak’s MicroLink
™
Receiver Module, a wireless FM
system that improves listening over distance. The MLx
FM receiver module connects to the direct audio input
system and is powered by the hearing instrument
battery.
