Hi, anyone can share a direct link to latest Genie2?. Oticon now request a login to download software, and the only way to register is as a company.

Thanks!

Thanks a lot!! I can confirm python script also works under Linux.

Can’t wait for my HI-PRO to arrive soon.

Glad that it works for Linux.

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.

Is there an Echo in here??

Does anyone have a link to the Geenie2 software for my Oticon mor3 2? Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forum sure but don’t forget you’ll need the Noahlink wireless programming device as well for DIY projects.

Check out the user guide as well, more information can be found by clicking on @pvc avatar.

The industry standard Noahlink Wireless hearing aid programming device does not work for all models. Also, for older Oticon models (Oticon Opn included), Noahlink Wireless cannot perform firmware updates. Though, as hearing aid models age, the need for firmware updates tend to fade, so there’s that. Plan accordingly while paying attention to the details.

This is my Noahlink Wireless. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My Noahlink Wireless is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. My Noahlink Wireless, without me, is useless. Without my Noahlink Wireless, I am useless. :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks for the mail! I have a noahlink wireless installed!

Alas, for you have omitted the most important component of your life, by which your Noahlink Wireless is but a piece of plastic with a USB cord.
A working Windoze 10 PC!!

Your ears are twins! Have you tried to get an audiogram with your hearing aids programmed to perfection to see how well the hearing aids actually work. Hubble taught NASA that you have to test your instruments with them being used in a condition you will be using them. That means testing them in an active condition - I cannot find an Aud that will do that and I tried at Kaiser Medical in California. The REM gets the Aud close but not there. Good car shops do that for million dollar cars.

Can anyone send me a link to download Genie 2? Many thanks (I have Noah Wireless already) tom

Hi there, hey great your doing DIY projects, I believe you asked in another post as well, I’m sure you’ll be up and running in no time.

Hi everyone, I have a question and I hope I’m putting it in the right spot. If not, I am very sorry!

I am going to attempt to make some (minor) programming adjustments to my Opn hearing aids. I just got the required hardware and software. However, I am wondering if I connect the hearing aids to a computer (and Genie 2 software) that has not programmed these hearing aids before, would it wipe the settings my audiologist put in there already and send it back to default settings? Or when I connect them and open it up in Genie 2 will I be able to basically pick up where my audi left off?

Since I can’t get an appointment for a couple months I don’t want to take any chances.

Thanks!

No sweet, yeah what you do is make 2 clients up, one for your audiology settings and one for your DIY projects, so connect first time and then save to database and HAs, if you follow the user guide including the video guide it shows how this is done, much easier then you think really.
