Harmony Processor Troubleshooting
Determining Device Function
Use the Harmony Processors built-in Tri-Color LED to determine device function.
For details on how to use the LED to determine device function, see the Tri-Color
Color LED section below:
LED Sequence
1. When the PowerCel is first attached to the Harmony Processor, the LED will
indicate the PowerCel charge status by flashing ORANGE.
Three (3) to four (4) quick ORANGE flashes indicate that the PowerCel is
fully charged.
Two (2) quick ORANGE flashes indicate that the PowerCel is sufficiently
charged to power the system.
One (1) quick ORANGE flash indicates that the PowerCel charge is nearly
depleted.
Zero (0) ORANGE flashes indicate that the battery needs to be changed
immediately.
2. Following the PowerCel charge status sequence the LED will indicate Lock Sta-
tus by flashing RED.
The LED will ash RED approximately once per second until lock is achieved.
Once the Headpiece is properly positioned on the students head, and infor-
mation is transmitting to the implant, the RED flashing will stop.
3. When the PowerCel and Lock Sequences are complete, the LED will indicate
Microphone and system status by flashing GREEN.
The LED will ash GREEN in response to loud sounds presented near the
Processor Microphone. This verifies that the Microphone is receiving sound,
data is being transmitted to the implant, and the Harmony Processor is re-
ceiving information back from the implant.
The LED is not expected to ash GREEN in quiet environments.
NOTE: The Low Battery Indicator,
Change Battery Indicator, Lock
Status Indicator (SoundWave
1.4.98 and subsequent builds),
and Mic/System status Indicator
are programmable features and
may not be activated on the
child’s processor. These program-
mable features are often helpful for
educators working with children
who use the Harmony Processor.
You can contact the child’s family or
cochlear implant center to request
that these features be activated.
NOTE: The System Sensor is
NOT compatible with the Harmony
Processor and may indicate that
the Harmony Processor is
functioning appropriately (solid
green light) when Harmony is
not transmitting a signal to the
internal device. Use Harmonys
built-in LED to determine the
status of the Harmony Sound
Processor.
NOTE: The FireFly (system status
Earhook for the Auria BTE) is NOT
compatible with the Harmony
Processor. Use the Harmonys
built-in LED to obtain information
about the Harmony Processors
status.
