User Instructions for the TSG module
Description of the Device
The Tinnitus Sound Generator (TSG) Module is a software tool that generates sounds to be used in
tinnitus management programmes to relieve suering from tinnitus.
Explanation of how the device functions
The TSG module is a frequency and amplitude shaped white-noise generator. Noise signal level and
frequency characteristics can be adjusted to the specic therapeutic needs as determined by your
doctor, audiologist or hearing care professional.
Your doctor, audiologist or hearing care professional can modulate the generated noise with the purpose
of making it more pleasant. The noise can then resemble, for example, crashing waves on a shore.
Modulation level and speed can also be congured to your likes and needs. An additional feature can
be enabled by your hearing care professional that allows you to select predened sounds that simulate
sounds from nature, such as breaking waves or running water.
If you have two wireless hearing aids that support ear to ear synchronization this functionality can be
enabled by your hearing care professional. This will cause the Tinnitus Sound Generator to synchronize
the sound in both hearing aids.
