How it works
The PLA 90 uses its built-in microphone or an external microphone to pick up
sounds and emits them via the integrated induction loop. The signals emitted
in this way can be received by a hearing aid that is set to the “T” or “MT”
position.
Setting up the PLA 90
The induction loop system is already completely installed and set up in the
housing. All you have to do is place the PLA 90 at the desired position
between you and the person you are talking to and connect the power supply
unit. Please note that the microphone on the back of the device should be
facing the person speaking.
Switching the device on
To switch the induction loop system on, press the “Power on“ button on the
rear side of the device. Once the device is switched on, the “Power on” light
on the rear of the device will light up green, and the “Power on” light on the
front will light up blue.
Picking up/ emitting signals
If sounds are picked up by the microphone on the back of the device or via an external microphone and emitted by the device as magnetic signals, the status light “loop signal” will flash orange.

Power supply for the PLA 90
The PLA 90 can be operated using the built-in rechargeable battery or the
power supply unit. If the battery is fully charged, the device can be used for
up to 6 hours. A depleted battery has to be recharged for approximately 3
hours until it reaches full capacity again. You can also use the PLA 90 while
it is being charged, but please note that this will lengthen the time required
to fully recharge the battery. The device can remain connected to the power
supply for as long as desired
NOTE. The battery must remain in place, even when the PLA 90 is connected to AC Power
Wall mounting
- Screw in two screws (not included) 14.1 cm apart at the place you would like to mount the PLA 90 on the wall (see figure).
- Now set the PLA 90 on the screws and slide it down slightly to secure it in place.
