Directional ITE positioning
Attach the provided clip to the coupler for stability. Orient the instrument as shown so that the direction of
maximum sensitivity is toward one of the speakers and a line joining the microphone ports is at 45° and
horizontal. Locate the test box reference microphone at the front microphone opening on the faceplate and seal
any vent at the faceplate. Note which speaker (L or R) is in 'front' of the hearing instrument for reference. Other
positions may be preferable for some instruments.
Directional BTE positioning
Use the provided coupler clip to keep the instrument off the floor of the test chamber. The directional BTE
instrument should be positioned so that a line joining the microphone openings on the instrument is at 45° as
shown. Position the test box reference microphone at the front microphone opening on the instrument. Note
which speaker (L or R) is in 'front' of the hearing instrument for reference. Other positions may be preferable for
some instruments.
