LOOP is the PUZZLE system’s teleloop amplifier. LOOP transfers the sound from TV and radio
directly to your hearing aid (or telemagnetic receiver) and you receive the sound loud and clear.
LOOP can also receive alarms from the PUZZLE system’s alerting transmitters (DETECT DOOR and/or
OBSERVER). When an alarm is received, the signal from the radio or the TV is turned down and
an alarm signal is heard instead. LOOP can receive up to seven different alarms apart from the
alarm for battery change. Each alarm has its own unique sound pattern, which makes it easier to
distinguish between the different alarm signals. The individual sound patterns are set on the
alerting transmitters (DETECT DOOR and/or OBSERVER).
Important
Use only cables and jack plugs supplied by an authorized Phonic Ear representative/installer or
LOOP may be damaged.
