New FM Support Center offers professional knowledge at the click of a mouse
Murten, Switzerland (October 19, 2011) - Phonak has launched FM Support Center – a full suite of online tools designed to help fitters and audiologists learn about, configure and successfully fit Phonak FM systems.
Building on the resounding global success of Phonak’s previous-generation FM Configurator tool, this comprehensive new web resource includes everything the hearing professional needs to choose, fit and configure a Phonak personal FM system, in order to help a hearing-impaired patient better understand speech in noise and over distance.
FM Support Center is available now at www.phonakpro.com/fmsupportcenter.
It features:
- New FM Configurator
This tool is designed to help professionals correctly configure new hearing systems by specifying a patient’s hearing aid or cochlear implant and configuring the appropriate Phonak FM system for their needs (i.e. the FM transmitter, receiver and adapter required). - FM Knowledge Base
A one-stop shop of FM information, containing downloadable documents for every Phonak Dynamic FM and Classic FM product, plus instructional videos, related e-learning materials and more. - FM eLibrary
Phonak’s new and improved FM eLibrary is a powerful FM-specific search engine for hearing professionals. Simply input a search term to find relevant scientific studies, reports, articles and other useful learning resources. - The Latest FM News
FM Support Center includes quick links to the latest editions of FM in a Minute, Phonak’s quick video update for hearing professionals who fit or are interested in FM technology. - FM Downloads
FM Support Center now also hosts FM Downloads, Phonak’s popular quick-hit listing of every FM-related PDF on phonakpro.com.
“The FM Support Center simplifies the lives of hearing professionals by providing them with all the FM fitting information and resources they need in one easy-to-access location,” said Alexander Zschokke, Interim CEO of Phonak. “This launch once again proves that at Phonak we are dedicated to consistently meeting the needs of our hearing industry partners around the world.”
