Connection issue HI-PRO USB to Phonak

Another question. Is there really a difference between the “Right & Left” cables? As I’m seeking the CS44a cables, would it matter if I brought two “red” right side cables (due to the availability)? If there are the same, I assume all I would have to do is put some blue tape on one of the cables.

No difference. The color Red=Right, Blue=Left is to help you keep track which is which.

Here’s an example (scroll down to see cable colors)… >> AudeoQ <<

Thank you! That link is very helpful…

I don’t know if this is the correct thread to post a query. My HA’s are Phonac naidda III UP dAZ. What cable do I need to connect it to a hipro-usb. I don’t see a connecting socket in the HA’s.

  1. CS44a
  2. Find the cable guide from inside the fitting software
  3. look for an access door on the hearing aid and flip it open (like #5 below)

Thank you very much for the prompt reply.

How do you flip it open? I can’t do it with my finger nail. Do you need a scew?

I know pvc is no longer in this forum, can another guru answer?

#21

Get a pin or needle to use. That’s what I use.

Thank you very much.

Hi

I have only hiPro 2, can you tell me? To check the hearing programming, I have to use both the CS44 cables, right and left, because I used the right red one, but no option is coming on the screen.

#24

Not sure what your asking, if your wanting to know which cables to get we’ll need to know the exact model of HAs your using.

Please let us know the exact modell of your hearing aids ?

Do you want to programm Phonak hearing aids , or is it another manufacturer?

Thanks

Which cables do you have ?

  • CS44 (for Oticon)
  • CS44A (for Phonak)

The cables look identical , but CS44A have pins 3 and 4 reversed.

Oticon CS44 cable connectors pin out
Oticon CS44 cable pinout

the right (Red) cable and left (blue or black) cable is the same (identical) and the coloring is only for visibility that you can see wich side you need to connect to red/blue.

For programming Oticon Xceed via HiPro you need to connect via CS44 cables , not the CS44A cables.
Alternatively you can programm Oticon Xceed via Noahlink Wireless programmer, wireless without cables.

could be possible that your red wire connector gone bad and one or more contacts worn out. In that case you should obtain a new cs44 cable
