Here's a clip from DIY School Hearing Aids (V2.2) PDF File named (02 How to Program your Hearing Aids);
Step 4 – Save your Original Professional Settings (if any)
An important feature for keeping track of changes to your hearing aid settings/HA settings is the concept of keeping your database settings an exact match to your HA settings! Normally, you can proceed without getting a (
Settings Mismatch Warning) because your HA settings have a DateTimestamp that matches the DateTimestamp of the
last database session. Caveat; You are allowed to bypass this matching DateTimestamp requirement when this is the first time connecting your HAs (with a new database client) because your new database client is empty. Caveat2; This is how it works for Oticon and I suspect that it works this same was for other manufacturers. But I cannot say for certain without testing all other brands?
At the END FITTING step, the fitting software typically asks where to save the settings? Note that your fitting changes are already temporarily applied to the HAs (at the time-you-make-a-change). However, you still get to choose where and whether to save the settings permanently.
- In the HAs?
- In the database?
- Neither HAs or Database – in other words – Don’t save any changes.
- Both the HAs and the database? Both is the typical choice for saving your changes, giving a standard result of your hearing aid settings always matching your last database session.
After saving setting to both places, you are now in sync with hearing aid settings saved in two places, your hearing aids, and your database.
We as self-programmers, want to do something special for our very first session with HAs that were professionally fit and maybe also measured with REM. We want to save the original settings to our database (without making any changes). This gives us the ability to revert back to the Original Professional Settings. During your very first fitting session, use the settings from the HAs and then (
immediately) save the settings to
Both the hearing aids and the database
without changing any of the settings. That’s it! You are done. Easy/Peasy, right? The first database session is now a copy of your Original Professional Settings. Furthermore, future fitting sessions can now proceed without the warning about a settings mismatch, because the settings in the hearing aids now match the settings in your database. Caveat: Not all fitting software retains Acoustics settings
in the hearing aids so you may want to verify correct acoustics are specified (Dome open/closed, or Mold with a specific vent size).
However! There is an undesirable side effect of initially saving to
Both. The procedure for determining whether the hearing aid settings match the database settings is based on DateTimestamp. Therefore, now that the hearing aids match “
your” database, they will no longer match your Audi’s database. More on this
eventual conflict with your Audi later...
