4. Streamer wireless ranges
4.1 EarStream range
The Streamer has a digital wireless transmitter (EarStream) built-in that
streams information to your hearing instruments. The EarStream radio
is activated automatically when requested and cannot be permanently
switched off .
When the Streamer is streaming audio, the range to the hearing instrument
is approx. 0.5 meter (20 inches). This means that the Body Area Network
has an outer perimeter 0,5 meter from the ears and that the Streamer must
be used inside this perimeter.
The range could be reduced by metal objects and strong magnetic fi elds.
Use of the neck strap is strongly recommended to achieve optimal
EarStream performance.
Streamer to hearing instruments: 0.5 meter range
When the Streamer is used for remote volume control only or just “stand-by”
(ready for incoming phone call) the range can expand up to 1 meter.
4.2 Bluetooth range
The Streamer has a Bluetooth transmitter built-in that can be manually
turned on/off as a separate function.
Bluetooth is used to communicate and send audio from your external sound
and communication units, like a Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone.
The wireless range from the Streamer to a mobile phone is 10 meters (33
feet) in open space. Bluetooth range is reduced by objects between the
Streamer and the mobile phone.
The range also depends on the quality of the antenna of the other device.
Mobile phone distance to/from the Streamer: 10 meters range
