Description

The LA240 Home Hearing Loop System provides a practical solution for hearing aid users to listen more easily to their TV or Audio equipment.  Any hearing aid with the “T” or “Loop” program can access the hearing loop.

With no direct connection between the user and a TV or Audio equipment, the user is able to listen comfortably without distraction.

The Loop system picks up the sound from a TV via a direct connection or microphone.  This is fed to the amplifier and then passed to the loop cable.  The loop cable in turn transmits the sound inductively to a hearing aid with the loop facility.

The user may then adjust the loop volume or tone to suit their own hearing preference without affecting others.

Please Note: The LA240 Home Hearing Loop System is supplied with Loop Cable.  If a Loop Pad is required, please see the LA240 Home Hearing Loop Pad System (135-255).

Loop cable is placed around a room that you want to listen in. The sound can be heard anywhere inside the “looped” area and sometimes just outside the loop as well.

FAQ

Can the control box be connected to a Hi Fi amplifier as well as a TV?

Yes.  It can connect to them both at the same time. You simply select the audio input you wish to listen to on the LA240 unit menu.

The Digital Audio Optical TOSlink cable supplied would be used to connect to the TV.  It is also supplied with a 1.2m Stereo Phono-Phono lead and a 3.5mm jack plug adaptor which would be used for Hi-fi system.

 

My system was working yesterday, and now no audio is coming through at all.  How can I fixe this?

The most common causes of this happening is that the input selection button on the front of the device has been knocked and may no longer correspond to the socket being used for audio input at the back.  There are 3 options, a,b & c.  a & b correspond to analogue audio input 1 & 2 and option c corresponds to the optical input.
