• Why Maximum Power Output trimmer?

To protect the user from unwanted sound levels!

Trimmer – MPO Control

Trimmer – Low frequency control

• The Low-frequency trimmer control:

Rotate the trimmer clockwise to control loud sound and low pitched sounds. The control can also be used to shape the frequency response

• Why Low-frequency trimmer?

To give the benefit of being able to control soft sounds in general and improve speech clarity!

Trimmer – High frequency control

• The High-frequency trimmer control:

Rotate the trimmer counter-clockwise to amplify low-frequency sounds

Fine tuning Guide

Adaptive Feedback Manager

The TrimFlex+ Super Power Adaptive Feedback Manager monitors the so-called ‘error signal’ to look for presence of feedback across the range of frequencies 2000-6500 Hz.

The Feedback Compensation filter is adapted so that the ‘error signal’ is minimized.

Unlike an adaptive notch filter or adaptive channel gain - this approach does not reduce gain in the hearing aid

Adaptive Feedback Benefits

Automatically reduces feedback• At least 10 dB of improvement• Without lowering gain

Improved stability allows• Higher gain fittings• Looser ear mould fitting• Larger venting• Acoustic telephone use

Hearing experience intact & more• Music is not distorted• Better understanding in high frequency and speech

Adaptive Noise Reduction

The TrimFlex+ Super Power Adaptive Noise Reduction system uses three detection time layers over 10 bands to detect speech in noise depending on the listening situation – automatically!

Environment layer:

• This layer is designed to identify when speech is not present and gradually reduce the NR band gain (10 seconds), but also to reactivate it slowly when speech is detected again.

Quick-Recovery layer:

• The Quick-Recovery compliments the Environment layer and releases the sound quickly to avoid the listener to have a delay in speech recognition

Syllabic layer:

• With the Syllabic mode it is possible to recognize fast or slow modulations, enabling the system to determine where to filter with a Noise Reduction

+ +

Adaptive Noise Reduction Benefits

Syllabic layer benefits• Enables the hearing instrument to distinguish between noise

signals and actual speech, thus making it easier for the wearer to filter out and understand their surroundings

Environment layer benefits• Will avoid uncomfortable increases in the gain when in silent

areas, in other words help adjust the sound input in environments and make it more comfortable for the listener in all situations.

Quick-Recovery benefits• Much better performance and audibility when in conversations.• Ensuring that the listener will not miss out on any parts of the

conversation when changing from quite to busy environments.
