32 User Guide for the Auria Harmony Sound Processor
Interfacing with Hard-Wired Systems:
• Select the appropriate patch cable. As a reminder, the Direct Connect Cable
uses a standard 3.5 mm audio jack that is designed to accept stereo input.
If you have additional questions regarding patch cables, please contact your
audiologist or AB for additional assistance.
• With the audio device and processor turned off, attach the patch cable.
• Turn down the volume on the audio device to the minimum setting.
• Turn down the volume dial on the processor.
• Set the processor to the appropriate program.
• Turn on the audio device, then the processor—in that order (this will ensure that
no adverse sound percepts are heard).
• Gradually increase the volume on the processor to user setting (typically
12:00).
• Increase the volume control on the audio device to a comfortable
listening level.
