DIY - Self Programming the Oticon Opn – How To

Hearing Aid Self-Fitting and Adjusting [DIY]

I just used a mini PRO to update firmware on my OPN S 1 BTE’s - estimate was 26 minutes and it took 26 minutes. And yes, the CS44 cable directly into the BTE is better than the flexconnect but sometimes it just doesn’t want to plug in until I wiggle it around every which way and then one more…

I don’t think that (mini Pro/Hi Pro) users will be out of luck anytime soon due to the fact that they ain’t fast enough. imo> a CYA statement like that from the manufacturer was likely meant to coax their professional users to seek higher speeds as opposed to dwelling on (or complaining about) the ridiculously long Firmware update time of 30 minutes.

Cable Plugin Tip: If you have eagle eyes :eyes:, there is an alignment dot along with a corresponding grove on the plugin cylinder that allows it to be connected only with the proper alignment. Look for a red colored matching mark on the hearing aid and align the two:

Nice, like phonak…

Yes, and the straight connectors have a red line to use as an alignment tool.

sorry, I want to ask. anybody here who has the link to download Noah3 ?

#396

Not sure what Noah3 is. Are you talking about the Noahlink Wireless interface? It should be a plug and play device. If you want to check for its latest firmware version download, you can google it and find it on the HIMSA website.

You don’t need this to program your HAs, the software is only used by the audiology clinics.

Ah, OK, thanks for explaining. I had no clue what it was.

#399

hello everyone, right now I’m using the phonak target 7.1 and it is very difficult to connection with the Icube …

does anyone know, whether the icube can be use in the Target 7.1 ?

if not, what version that is in accordance with the Icube ? ( not icube II )

@andreanboea How come you’re talking about Phonak software but you’ve put it in a Oticon Opn thread?

You’ll need Phonak Target 6.0 or less to work with the first generation iCube.

#401

I’m sorry, I was careless

#402

@andreanboea no need to be sorry. It’s okay. I was just wondering about your post. :slight_smile:

Hope I answered your question about what Target will work with your iCube.

Looking for a clear answer here.

I’ve got the Oticon More HAs that have rechargeable batteries. In reading a bunch of posts above, I’m unclear whether I need cables to update firmware or if it can be done wirelessly. There are mentions of cables needed with older HAs, included the OPNs but my HAs are slightly newer so not sure if that changes things.
