AWRC Charger

In this video we’ll go over how to use the AWRC charger. We’ll explain the options you have to charge it and what the different colored lights on it mean.

Pairing Probe Mics Video
New AWRC devices will have the REM Probes pre-paired with the main unit. There will be no need to manually pair probes on new units. Pairing is for replacement probes or upgrades to an Audiometer only AWRC.

Once your fittings begin, the probe microphone’s rechargeable battery provides 6 hours of continuous use

The MedRx AWRC is a complete dual-channel audiometer and high-frequency wireless REM/LSM system combined for convenient, space-saving testing and fitting. The 2-in-1 device is optimized for mobile testing or to reduce your equipment’s desktop footprint. With a high-frequency audiometer option available, you can ensure you’re choosing features that align best with your practice’s needs. The MedRx AWRC allows you freedom and flexibility to operate at your most efficient.

Contact your local MedRx Sales team to upgrade to high-frequency audiometry at any time.

Wireless Real Ear Measurement and Live Speech Mapping.

MedRx’s modern REM and LSM software modules allow clinicians to fit hearing aids more accurately than ever, improving patient satisfaction and reducing hearing aid returns. Powered only by the USB on your computer, the AWRC comes standard with a high-frequency fitting capability that allows clinicians to fit up to 12,500 Hz. The AWRC also uses two wireless Bluetooth probe microphones that connect to your REM system automatically for each fitting session.
