Yes, I am sure. My Linx2 hearing aids behave exactly the same. When they connect to Smart Fit they are already identified as right and left, but are considered unassigned until I assign (associate them) them to the patient since it is not my Smart Fit software that originally configured them. The same process happens with my Linx2 devices even though the UI is different. The devices already know they are configured to be left and right.
As I said before, these are not eBay hearing aids. I bought them through a normal, in-person audiologist. A Gn Resound dealer. They happen to be 30 miles from my house, and want to charge me a $50 office visit for every little tweak in settings. That’s why I’m trying to start doing this myself.
