8. Gradually increase the gain of the MicroLink CI S to a
comfortable level.
9. Determine speech recognition ability in quiet at normal
sensitivity with the FM signal. Ensure that results are
similar to implant alone condition. MicroLink CI S gain may
need further adjustments.
10. Evaluate FM benefit as well as the appropriateness of FM
settings trough speech-recognition assessment in the
clinic and standardized questionnaires completed by the
recipient, family members and teachers.
Listening check
The best way to listen to the FM signal is to plug the
MicroLink CI S with the blue, blue red, black or white
patch cable into a loudspeaker. Make sure there is a good
battery inside the MicroLink CI S. Then turn On the
MicroLink CI S and FM transmitter. By speaking into the
transmitter’s microphone you should hear your voice
through the speaker.
