Thanks @don for sharing this info and happy to hear you are utilizing it to max benefits out from it.

@dani/@don, Can you please elaborate on the setup done on Target. i have ComPilot Air II and RemoteMic as additional Accessories, I havent used much except for streaming youtube video or skype calls etc… apart from that i also have ComPilot-1 which i have purchased for Q70 and not sure if this works with B90-312 or not ?

My current HA are B90-312 RIC

i want to expand my knowledge to better use of these accessories where-ever possible.

3 - Directionality 360, focus on voices
5 - Directionality, front facing, focus on voices
4 - Speech in Loud Noise with noise reduction maxed out.
Landline or strange phone, one click to Acoustic Phone, which works very well.
Difficult noise situation, one long press to Speech in Loud Noise program.

Can you please advice or share more information on this topic

These are all of Don’s programs that he has. If you haven’t got these programs then your ComPilot won’t have them!!

#16

Can anyone confirm if the ComPilot Remote side of it, can be used without having the neck cord around your neck?

#17

Com pilots work great when they work and bad news when they always stop working in about a yr. Extremely sensitive to moisture. Is there any alternatives? Third party streamers that wont break in a year?

#18

How can moisture break your Compilot? And no, there is no 3rd party alternative.
Maybe your neckloop has broken. Then you have to replace the loop just like USB cables are sensible for replacement.

@vrd_quest Compilot 1 is not compatible for Phonak’s V-, B- and M-lines. You need Compilot 2.

@dani, thanks !!! whether ComPilot Air II works for this setup ?

#20

What do you mean by the word “setup”? As Zebras already said the programs have to be programmed into the HA. Compilot is only a remote control and the intermediate streamer for Bluetooth connections and TV-connector.

Compilot Air II is compatible with your B90-312 RIC (side note: it is NOT compatible with Audéo B90-direct !)
Btw this info is from Target. You can look up this kind of information for yourself. As a DIY you should do more Try-&-Error, i.e. you should read the great information Target already delivers to you, do some slight changes and then see/hear or whatever compare the changes.

Zebras, I am not quite sure what you want to know:
When I am listening to bluetooth streaming then the HAs need to have a distance of about at most 30cm/12inch. When I want to change program with Compilot then it may work at a distance that does not exceed 60cm/25inch. Program switches via ComPilot 2 (w/o air) even work without the loop attached to Compilot. I have just checked these behaviours.

#22

That’s exactly what I want to know, thank you!

The compilot is an open structure with.penetrations all over it. No attempt has been made to seal it. The first one I had lasted a couple of months. I was able to reclaim it for a while by soaking it with contact cleaner. My next one didnt last long and the good folks at COSTCO gave me a silicon jacket that helped but still has holes and leaks. I live in NC and PR and sweat a lot. I have tried to be very careful, and this last one has lasted over a year but its gone too. Ready for my 4th? One. The phonak has are wonderful, best I have ever had and very moisture resistent. Interestingly, when they break, they still act as a remote control, just blows up the bluetooth streaming function which I really need and use.

I plan to put mine in my Dry & Store once a week.

#25

My fault. I misinterpreted the word “moisture”.
There should be no direct contact between Compilot and skin. For this reason I wear an undershirt below my t-shirt. I can’t say how long this will keep my Compilot away from moisture because I have it as recently as 12 months. I know of the silicon jacket but I don’t use it because then I am not able to charge it in my tv-connector.

#26

I used cuticle scissors to make openings in my silicone sleeve to be able to plug in my Roger receiver etc.
Wear it outside my shirt when shopping and restaurants so i can easily switch programs and volume depending on noise. Found clerks are more patient when they see i have a challenge. .
Tonight it was comfort in echo when we went out to eat. Lunch the other day was better speech in noise

#27

Does anyone else have a problem with wind noise when using their ComPilot? I’m not 100% sure how to solve the problem?

#28

Does the remote side of the ComPilot work whiles wearing the ComPilot?

The only You Tube video I can see shows that you have to discounted the neck loop.

#29

Everything works when worn around your neck.

It’s too bad the newest Audeo M does not utilize the Compilot II. All the connectivity issues would be solved as an option. One reason I won’t consider them.

Yes, I completely agree. If you could use the direct connection when you wanted, but then use the Compilot 2 when you have more complicated connection needs, it would be perfect, and I would buy it today.

Yeah, they missed their opportunity it seems. Even a smaller compact redesign would have been great.
