It’s happening after 8 to 10 seconds. Likely to be that the trial period is over as he’s wearing demo Aids.
Could it be that the hearing aids are changing from a streaming program or a sound notification from your phone back to the automatic program… I know that if I use the buttons on my Phonak Has to change the program back to automatic manually it will make that three tone sound
I’ve had trials for a month. There was never any trial period. It could be the myphonak app switching back to the priority program. When I stream I stream directly through my priority program. But I then go to myphonak to adjust the sound. When I’m done streaming I hold the button down on the aid and I get the priority notification. But 15 to 30 seconds later I get another priority notification which is the app switching back
It’s a long time since I had Phonaks, but when I had audeo smart spice hearing aids, I remember they used to play a little tune when switching to the automatic mode. I wonder if it’s something like that?
That’s what I was referring to but he says inky when he turns them on. If it’s a notification set up by the audi letting him know his trial period is ending I would be annoyed. If I want to be nagged I have a wife for that
Yes both the Marvel and Paradise Aids can be set for a maximum of a 6 week trial and then it beeps. The trial Aids can be set at any technology level and already have the Roger licenses on them.
The start up delay can be set for 6 or 12 seconds, the trial period beeps are really loud, there’s no reason why the OP couldn’t tell the difference between them.
Yeah but that’s the whole point I believe, they don’t want you running off with the trial HAs!but really its just a reminder, so they nag you ; )
The newer hearings aids can be deactivated by the audiologist remotely on his computer if he suspects someone may be taking off with the aids. I just recently had this discussion with my audiologist
Oh ok, so that’s interesting, I mean as long as the HAs were connected to the software or the App at the time, otherwise it wouldn’t be possible would it?
I’m confused by your question
I mean, for the audiologist to deactivate them remotely, the HAs would need to be “connected” in some way, As in, for deactivation to take place,its done over the internet or some other way?
Hey all,
Confirmed to be the trial period after further reading on here etc. It started to do the 3 tone sound every hour and now every minute

Sorry I didn’t get into it that deeply. I just asked him if he ever got ripped off since he’s always been big on loaners and he said 3 times but now he can deactivate the aids from his office. Didn’t think it was right to ask how. But newer aids can now be adjusted remotely, so …
Yes but the provider has to be connected to the aids to be able to disable them. He can’t do it if they are just in someone’s ears. I would think it’s done via the app. The other way is to have them disable themselves automatically at a given date unless they get a stay-alive message via the app.
Like I said I didn’t ask and didn’t really care. I have no desire or intention to walk off with a pair of trial aids
Of course not! It’s just interesting, is all.
Wait. Maybe next he’ll be able to remotely make them blow up
I have the Paradise Naida UP 70 hearing aids. I also had prior Naida (Venture and earlier ones) hearing aids. Similar to prior versions of this hearing aid, each aid sends out start up sounds when starting. However, there is another sound (several notes) that comes shortly after. I think it is a syncing sound that one hearing aid indicating that it recognizes the other one. That tells me that things like pressing the buttons on one aid will affect the other. Also that the two hearing aids communicate to each and pass sounds to each other. At least that is what I assume. It also happens whenever I shut off a hearing aid while using the other one. That can take 10-15 seconds before the sound appears.
Well I own the naida paradise UP 90 . And when I shut the battery door I wait about 6 seconds which my aids are set to and then I get the multiple beeping sound indicating the aids are on and that’s it. I’m wondering if there’s some kind of connection problem with your aids.
Possibly there is a problem with mine but I don’t actually think there is. My description sounds like what @sparklingdekx was commenting about at the start of this thread.
My experience is that whichever hearing aid is left on will play a piano-like string of sounds when the other hearing aid becomes disconnected from it. If I open my battery compartment it takes about six seconds for the other aid to play the tune. If I turn the aid back on I first get the start up sound but then it is followed a few seconds later by the piano tune. Either hearing aid causes the same matching results. It has been operating this way since I originally got the aids in late May. It might be some software release enhancement. I don’t know if it has anything to do with bluetooth (this is my first Naida with Bluetooth) or whether it is just a basic lower level Phonak inter-aid communication confirmation.
I believe that it tells me that the two aids are talking to each other versus the start up sounds that tell me each aid is on. I think both different sounds are useful for knowing the status of ones hearing aids i.e. being “on” versus actually communicating between the aids.
