FONIX FP40 Portable Hearing Aid Analyzer

1.6 FP40 Setup

This section describes how to set up the FP40 analyzer and prepare it for testing.

1.6.1 Setting up the instrument

Unpack and locate all accessories (in the lid/FP40; in the boxes/FP40-D). Save the shipping box in
case you need to send the unit in to us for repair or major upgrades. Choose a location for the FP40
which is relatively free of ambient sounds and vibrations. See Figure 1.5.5 for a drawing of the rear
panel

1.6.2 Connecting equipment

If you want to connect an external printer, you must have the External Printer Kit. This kit consists
of a special serial-to-parallel converter, a printer cable, a couple connectors, and an RJ11 cable. See
Figure 1.6.2.
