Platinum Sound Processor 3
1. Battery Charge Status
When the Processor program switch is turned from the off (o)
! !! !
position to positions , , or !!, the red LED light will blink as follows:
!Up to 4 quick blinks indicate that the battery is fully charged.
!2 to 3 quick blinks indicate that the battery is sufficiently charged to power the system.
!1 quick blink indicates that the battery charge is nearly depleted.
To check the battery charge status while the Processor is in operation, turn the Processor off and then back on to any program position. The red LED light sequence will indicate the battery charge status.
2. Lock Status
When the Processor program switch is turned from the off (o) position to positions !, !!, or !!!, and the battery charge sequence is complete, the red LED indicator begins to flash approximately once per second to indicate lock status. Flashing will continue until the headpiece is properly positioned on the head. Once the headpiece is transmitting to the implant, the flashing will stop, signifying that the system is sending information correctly.
3.Microphone/System Status
When the battery and lock sequences are complete, microphone and system status can be verified. The green LED indicator will flicker in response to loud sounds presented near the microphone, verifying that the microphone is receiving sound, data is being transmitted to the implant and the Processor is receiving information back from the implant. Increasing the sensitivity will cause the green LED to flash in response to softer sounds, while decreasing the sensitivity will require more intense sounds for the LED to react. The green light is not expected to illuminate continuously during everyday use, especially if the user is in a quiet environment.
