Introduction
2.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE PRODUCT
The Trumpet is an REM device allowing in-situ evaluation of all the
parameters required to ensure optimum fitting of a hearing aid. It is
characterized by a small and lightweight set of probes, and a powerful
speaker mounted to the front panel of the instrument.
The Trumpet is also a diagnostic audiometer that can be used to perform
pure tone and speech audiometry by air or bone conduction.
At least one of the two modules (REM or audiometer) is purchased together
with the instrument, with the option of integrating both at a later date by
purchasing the relative licence.
The instrument is controlled by way of the Maestro application, which can
be installed only on a Windows PC.
The following table summarizes the tests that are available with the REM
module of the Trumpet:
