does this have to be paired with phonak compilot, ir does the audiologist have to change it in any way for it to work or is it just a mike ?

In my experience yes it does. It works like a external mike that connects through the compilot. Once paired it automatically connects when turned on.
1253124
that was our experience, we didn't see it working directly with the ear pieces, have to say it does work very well when paired! my wife can go into other rooms in the house and still hear me.
1253125
it is "just" a good bluetooth mike. So yes you can pair with compilot. did not try to pair it with anything else, but guess that's possible.
1253126
It will paired as a TV Link. When paired it will stated "TV Link". It does not act a phone mic for your COMPilot. It acts a remote mic. Fo rexample you are at a lecture or in church. You take the Remote Mic and place near the speaker. THe when the lecture person speaks - you will hear that person in your Phonak Hearing Aid if he was standing next to you. So YES it is just a mike.

Mine is paired with a Compilot. The remote Mic is a standard Bluetooth device Perhaps it can be paired with another Buetooth device that can communicate with your hearing aids Someway the Remote Mic signal must get to the hearing aid which does not operate as a Bluetooth device because of the small power available in the hearing aid. Perhaps some other hearing aid than Phonak can communicate with a device similar to the compilot that will work with your aids
1253128
Yes, it must be paired with a Compilot to communicate with your hearing aids.
1253129
Yes, you can follow the simple instruction to pair the mic. with phonak compilot yourself. Make sure to turn off other bluetooth devices during pairing.

I did not see your entire msg. Sorry. The Compilot must be matched to your Phonak Hearing aids, but not the Remote Mic. Hope this helps.

According to the Phonak Remotemic user's guide, you can pair it yourself. Pairing is fairly straight-forward and is described on page 13 of the Phonak Remotemic user's guide. You can find it online here:http://www.phonak.com/content/dam/phonak/gc_hq/b2b/en/products/accessories/remotemic/_documents/User_Guide_RemoteMic_029-0088.pdf#page=1&zoom;=auto,-153,354

In order for mine to work, my Audiologist had to group [link] it with my Phonak hearing aids. That might be the case with other hearing aids as well. Added note-I was charged a $35 fee because I bought this item "out there". Best check with your hearing aid supplier before buying.

The PilotOne will work with the ComPilot for remote control functions if programmed by a hearing aid professional, both will work with the same pair of hearing aids. We have patients in our hearing aid practice that use both. Thank you for your patronage.

Yes, the Com Pilot is used only with Phonak hearing aids that have wireless capabilities and use the latest platform called Quest (Models such as Q-50, Q-70, Q-90). If you have already been using the Com Pilot, then, yes, these will be the same and work. If the previous ones were square in shape, your hearing aids may not be compatible, as that is the older model. Thanks,Local Battery

Works great with Audeo. Need audiologist or technician to program.Great way to access all programs on Phonak.

There is a clip that clips onto my clothing, scarf or necklace (No Pin). The transmission when I talk goes directly to my husband's Phonax Hearing Aids. My husband has Meineires Disease and has a very serious 80% hearing loss in his right ear and a 45% loss in his left ear.... To talk with him without his mike, I must face him and be right in front of him. This mic has changed our lives.

Yes it needs to be programmed by a dealer or audiologist. I dont believe they are compatible with audibel products

My recollection is that would last for a couple of hours. I just tested mine for one hour and it is still working. Of course the range is limited may 20 ft at best and if contact between the compilot and remote mike is lost ( Bluetooth needs back and forth contact) then it will stop transmitting. Perhaps the battery is worn out. I think the mike will work if it is plugged into the charger while it is in use, and if so, this might solve the problem without looking for someone to replace the battery.

HI DIDI I have the Phonak Naida Q 50 hearing aids. The TVlink S is compatible with my aids. However if you buy the TVlink S over the internet you will have to have them configured to your aids by your hearing care professional. Best buy I ever made to listen to TV.& talk on my phone. You won't be sorry if you purchase one. E S of Parkesburg Pa.

I also have the Phonak com pilot. The base station is marries to your com pilot via blue tooth technology. It is then plugged into an audio device and transmit the signal to your com pilot and your hearing aids. It works great! I have two. One is connected to my home entertainment center. The other is connected to my computer at work where it allows my to monitor programming without my co-workers being aware. BTW it alos serves as a charging unit for your com pilot

Many bluetooth home phones will work with the ComPilot, but not all. I have not had any luck with bluetooth house phones. I have no problems with my iPhone handy when connected to my ComPilot. Although expensive, the Phonak DECT Phone is by far the best solution. Even without hearing aids, the phone volume can be significantly increased so you can hear pretty well. Telephoning is one of the greatest challenges for HA wearers and Phonak phones are the best option to date.

I sent mine in thru my hearing aid company because mine was doing the same thing. I paid to have it fixed Instead of replacing the battery they sent me a whole new compilot.

This does not, but you can purchase a remote mic for the compilot that will amplify your partner's voice through the compilot to your hearing aids. Especially helpful in noisy settings like a restaurant. The mic is wireless and must be paired via bluetooth to your compilot. The range is about 30 feet. It is called a "Phonak Remote Mic. Compatible with ComPilot" and can be purchased separately or with a compilot. I just acquired the device.

In my experience the ComPilot unit must be very close to the hearing aids. That is why the loop (antenna) of the ComPilot is worn around the neck of the person wearing the hear aids. It might work if the person speaking is close enough to hold the mike but that is very close.

I have a RPHA transformer helmet and the system works great. There may be some variation in ur helmet that may prevent you from using it. The microphone mints on the non moving part of the helmet just in front of and below the speaker on whichever side u prefer. It is a boom sort so can be adjusted for mike placement.

YES! It depends on your Phonak hearing aids model. Click on the link for Accessory Compatibility Guide. http://www.phonakpro.com/com/b2b/en/support/compatibility/hearing_instruments.html.You don't need Audiologist programming the ComPilot. I can see the Audiologist programming the hearing aids. It is so easy going thru the ComPilot programming process. Read the instructions. Terry Jones's comment (see below) is excellent.

No, the com pilot must be worn by you to function properly. You will need the Phonak remote mic to achieve your goal.
