Can you provide a screen clip of the notification/request?
Also see How to find Fitting Software to Program Your Hearing Aids [DIY] scrolling down to locked hearing aids. What’s the history of your hearing aids?

I don’t know what a coupling code is. What if you just set each of the acoustics selections to match the hearing instruments receivers/domes and leave the coupling code blank?

You shouldn’t need the coupling code to program them , I’ve never needed to, as pvc says just carry on and do the programming without it.

The coupling code is required only for a Phonak custom ear piece (SlimTip or cShell) that has AOV (Acoustically Optimized Venting) technology. The code is a six-digit number that is engraved on the shell. To optimize the calculated frequency response of the hearing aid, it should be entered in the Fitting Software “Acoustic Parameter” Section.

Love this forum. Didn’t expect this detail to be documented! Was already worrying that it would have something to do with locked hearing aids. ( I am buying 2nd hand Bolero B90’s tomorrow.)
