2. Push [START] to continue the test.
3A. If you chose to perform a telecoil measurement, do the following steps when
the analyzer pauses. If you are running an ANSI 03 test of an AGC aid and
are not performing a telecoil measurement, skip to step 3B. Otherwise, just
wait for the test sequence to complete.
a. Open the lid of the sound chamber.
b. Switch the aid to telecoil mode.
c. Plug the telewand into the side of the sound chamber, just above the
cable that connects the sound chamber to the Frye box.
d. Hold the telewand over the aid as if it were the ear piece on a phone.
That is, hold the telewand parallel to the body of a BTE or against the
faceplate of an ITE. It’s also usually best to position the hearing aid verti-
cally to get the best telecoil response. See Figure 5.1.4.
e. Press [START] to measure the telecoil response. The analyzer will pause
after the telecoil measurements are complete.
f. Return the aid to the normal microphone mode, set the AGC controls
to max (ANSI 03 and AGC aids only), reposition the hearing aid in the
sound chamber, close the lid, and press [START] to complete the test
sequence.
3B. If you’re running an ANSI 03 test of an AGC aid without a telecoil measure-
ment, the analyzer will run several measurements and then pause to allow
you to set the AGC controls of your aid to maximum. Do so, close the lid of
the chamber, and press [START] to complete the test sequence.
