Amplifier Testing
Product Information
The BM-Check is a prosthesis simulator for loop amplifier testing. It is a compact device that allows people without hearing aids to listen to a hearing loop system as if they were wearing a hearing aid in the T position. It can be used to check the sound source of a magnetic loop, equip a person who is hard of hearing and does not have a hearing aid, or equip a person with hearing loss whose prosthesis does not have a T position. The BM-Check features a headphone, headphone jack, volume control and power button, signal level and power LEDs, and a USB connector for charging the battery. It is made in France and approved by the EN60118-4 standard.
Product Usage Instructions

- When you are finished using the headset, turn the volume knob counterclockwise until the LED turns off.
Important:
- Always turn off the unit when it is not in use to extend its life.
