wirelessly.

Read and follow the instructions in this user guide to avoid

injuries or damage to ConnexxLink.

Safety information

Note: ConnexxLink is sensitive to extreme heat, high

humidity, strong magnetic ﬁelds (> 0.1T), X-rays and

mechanical stress. Do not expose ConnexxLink to

extreme temperature or high humidity. Do not leave

it in direct sunlight. Do not immerse it in water.

electronic equipment.

• Risk of interference with cardiac pacemakers.

Do not use if patient is ﬁtted with a cardiac pacemaker.

• Turn ConnexxLink off when in airplanes.

• Observe restrictions for use in hospitals.

• Prior to use in conjunction with an electronic implant or life

supporting system, have the electromagnetic compatibility

veriﬁed.

In some countries restrictions for the usage of wireless equipment

exists. Refer to local authorities for further information.

WARNING

• Choking hazard posed by small parts. Keep batteries, small parts

and ConnexxLink out of children‘s reach.

• If swallowed consult a physician or hospital immediately.

Note: Do not throw used batteries into household trash. Return

them to your Hearing Care Professional for environmentally

correct disposal.

WARNING

• Risk in explosive environments, e.g., mining areas!

• Don’t use ConnexxLink in areas where there is a danger of

explosions.

into the top part of the battery compartment.

• Press down the bottom part of the battery into the battery

compartment.

The contact areas of battery and battery compartment

match up.

• Charge the rechargeable battery before ﬁrst use.

*Tek with ﬁrmware version 1.03 and later will not be detected by

the computerwhen placed in the cradle and will not be able to be

reprogrammed.

Charging ConnexxLink

• Insert ConnexxLink into the charging

cradle.

The charging process starts. Charging

time is about 5 hours depending on

the status of the rechargeable battery.

Charging is complete when the battery

symbol shows a full battery.

You can also connect ConnexxLink directly

with a power plug to the power supply.

Running time of the rechargeable battery

The running time of the rechargeable battery is about

6 to 7 hours.

• Use ConnexxLink during the day and charge it over night.

• Keep an eye on the battery status when using ConnexxLink.

• Charge ConnexxLink when the battery is turning low.

• Do not use ConnexxLink for programming when charging.

• Do not use ConnexxLink when connected to a device

via USB.

Working with ConnexxLink

Before ﬁrst use

• Make sure to have Connexx 6.3 or a higher version installed.No

other software installation is required.

• Plug the Bluetooth® dongle into a USB slot on your computer.

Bluetooth® dongle

• Bluetooth® dongle and ConnexxLink need to

be within a range of 32 feet (10m).

• The green LED of the Bluetooth® dongle

blinks when the Bluetooth® dongle is searching for a

connection to ConnexxLink.

• The green LED of the Bluetooth® dongle is constantly lit when a

connection to ConnexxLink is established.

• Use only the Bluetooth® dongle delivered with your

ConnexxLink.

Wearing ConnexxLink

The patient wears the hearing instruments

during programming.

• Place ConnexxLink around the patients neck

using the neckloop.

• The patient should maintain a forward facing

head position, same direction as ConnexxLink.

Programming on the table

If you want to pre-conﬁgure the hearing

instruments you can also have ConnexxLink and

the hearing instruments lying on the table.

• Place the hearing instruments within the

neckloop when programming on the table.

Connecting ConnexxLink

and Bluetooth® dongle

• Turn ConnexxLink on by

pressing the on / off button.

When the Bluetooth® symbol on the screen

stops blinking, the Bluetooth® dongle and

ConnexxLink are connected.

ConnexxLink will go into stand-by mode

after 60 minutes of inactivity.

• Turn ConnexxLink back on by pressing the

on / off button.

• When programming hearing systems wirelessly do not use the

audio streaming function of the Tek connect remote control.

Wireless streaming the Tek connect remote control blocks the

programming signal of ConnexxLink.

• Start the Connexx detection dialog via the button “Detect

connected instruments” in the toolbar or on the hearing

instrument’s task card.

• Choose ConnexxLink as the detection device.
