3 T20 and T21 transmitters optimised for classrooms The Amigo T20 and T21 are the ultimate FM transmitters for educational environments. Used in a standard setup with just one teacher, or in a Team-Teaching situation, they make life in the classroom much easier. And their extremely robust construction guarantees day-long support, week in and week out. Functioning both as a transmitter and a wireless programmer, the T20 and T21 have an intuitive user-interface that facilitates trouble-free programming and fitting. And intelligent sound processing technology ensures the speech signal is always the priority.

4 T10 a multi-purpose transmitter Amigo T10 is a multi-purpose, portable and light-weight digital FM microphone and transmitter unit for use at home in daily life situations and at school. In the presence of noise, long reverberation time and over distances up to 30 meters, T10 secures optimum speech transmission. Offering three directional modes; Omni, Focus and SuperFocus, the T10 can be used in most environments to suppress unwanted noise and enhance the speech signal. Its multi-purpose design allows it to be neck worn, hand held, or placed on a table. When using the WRP in combination with the T10, all Amigo receivers can be programmed wirelessly. T10 transmitter: Superior directionality for a better Signal-to-Noise Ratio True low-frequency directionality provides intelligibility across the frequency band Extremly intuitive user interface Multi-channel capabilities giving you easy channel management No programming required just charge it and go! Digital signal processing 4 directional microphones and digital signal processing User features > Multi-channel > One dedicated Omni-directional microphone > High AI-DI (8.5 db in SuperFocus Mode) > Single slide On-Off and Directional mode switch > LCD screen displays channel and battery status > Ergonomic, multipurpose design (hand held, neck worn, or on a table) > Auxiliary audio input > Fail-safe battery charging > Run on both rechargable and alkaline batteries Programming features, Amigo WRP > Wireless programming of all Amigo receivers > FM-Gain adjustment 0-30 db > Programmable channel list > FM Channel Wizard for proactive channel management Amigo WRP The Amigo Wireless Receiver Programmer (WRP) allows wireless fitting of all Amigo receivers.

5 R1, R2 and R7 verifying signal transmission These multi-channel receivers offer all the plug and play functionality needed to get an FM connection up and running in no time. R1 and R2 can be used with most BTEs and CIs from any manufacturer via the universal Euro connector. The dedicated R7 offers superior interlocking integration with Oticon Sumo hearing instruments. All Amigo receivers provide unique visual (LED) confirmation that the FM equipment is functioning properly and that the signal is being transmitted to the child. R1, R2 and R7: Certainty Built-in LED feed-back showing that: The hearing aid battery is functioning The receiver is ON The transmitter and receiver are working together correctly The child is on the right channel cm User features > Multi-channel > Wireless programming and synchronisation > LED indicator > Channel seek (R2 and R7 only) > Programmable De-Emphasis > Programmable default channel (R1 only) > Programmable switch > 0-30 db gain range > Child ID (e.g. name) Durability Withstands accidental dropping Moisture repellent Low weight (approx. 1 gram) Gold plated Euro-pin connectors Ultrasonically welded housing Convenience Channel seek and toggle button (R2 and R7 only) Multi-channel with a default pre-defined list of channels Wireless synchronisation using T20, T21 or WRP Note: The distance between the receiver and transmitter must be between 20 and 40 cm when programming.

6 T5 and R5 straightforward, reliable and cost-efficient The new Amigo T5 and R5 is a cost effective, end-to-end, bodyworn FM solution that uses manual channel selection on both the transmitter and the receiver. The robust construction and straightforward interface make the T5 and R5 perfect for demanding school environments. And since the receiver runs on separate rechargeable batteries, it will not draw precious power from the hearing aid. The R5 can connect to normal headphones providing FM benefits for children without a hearing loss, e.g. those diagnosed with APD or similar disorders. User features > Tamper resistant volume and channel control > Wide variety of accessories T5 and R5: Straightforward No programming required Manual channel selection LED status indication on power and FM connection Optimal battery autonomy no Hearing Instrument battery drain Built-in antenna Interference-free CI connectivity Simple, clear user controls Reliable Robust construction Long battery life Fail-safe battery charging > Frequency synthesis > One receiver for two ears > Runs on both rechargeable and alkaline batteries > Different chargers to accommodate different needs Children with APD (Auditory Processing Disorder) These children often do not recognise subtle differences between sounds in words, so they need the clearest possible signal. By removing noise and transmitting the signal directly to the ears, Amigo may improve their chances of understanding the input. Headphones can be connected to the R5 receiver to assist children without hearing loss - e.g. those diagnosed with APD or similar disorders
