With help from this forum I have successfully tweaked my newer hearing aids with a Noahlink wireless and Connexx 9. (Many thanks, Tenkan!)

I almost hate to ask for more help, but my ex-audi ALSO messed up my backup pair of aids —Kirkland 7’s — and I’d like to reprogram those as well.

I have a working older Hi-Pro, null modem cable, sonion cables, and 312 pills. Connexx 9 sees the Hi-Pro, but doesn’t detect the KS7s -- too old for Connexx 9, I suspect.

I've seen references elsewhere to programming KS7s with Connexx 8.4.5 and RexFit 8.3.0, and with Connexx/RexFit 9.55.

Can someone point me in the right direction and share a link, please?

Thanks in advance!

Here's a clip from a DIY School Hearing Aids (v2.2) PDF File named (01 Free Hearing Aid Fitting Software);

Connexx Software Connexx has two distinct parts:

  • Connexx Software
  • Hearing Instrument/HI Database
Siemens/Signia HI requires the SiFit HI database. There are different versions of each database (old/legacy and new/current) and you will usually find the two versions you need bundled together in one download. If you need to use it for Signia HI, install the version with the SiFit HI database. If you want to use it for Rexton HI, install the version with the RexFit HI database.

If you want to use both versions of Legacy/Connexx (Siemens/Signia and Rexton), install both versions. When the installation is complete, you will have two HI databases and one Legacy/Connexx6 executable. You can then select which HI database you want to use from the Manufacturer drop-down menu and then select Siemens or Rexton.Though, for new/current versions of Connexx, you will have two HI databases and two separate Connexx executables.

Also, note that Connexx was rewritten as Connexx 8 (circa 2016), so the Connexx 8 version is the dividing line between the old/legacy version and the new/current version. You may encounter multiple old versions and multiple current Connexx versions. Generally, you will need either the last old version or the latest current version, depending on your hearing aids.Connexx 8 also adds an update program to the Windows system tray to keep the software up to date. However, due to a malfunction in the updater program, Connexx 8.5.3 is unable to receive additional updates through the updater program, so you may need to manually update this version. Please note that there are other (more infrequently used) versions of Connexx (Hansaton, Electone, Miracle Ear, etc.). For less commonly used versions, please use the hidden software instructions suggested at the end of this document.
 
I have updated the DIY School Hearing Aids (v2.2) PDF file named (01 Free Hearing Aid Fitting Software) to include new instructions for how to find some/most Hearing Aid Fitting Software.

Try asking a previous software requester via PM/Private Mail/Conversation ☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°), and then pass-it-on (in Private Conversations) to help future DIYers. Tip; You can start a private Conversation with the previous requester by mouse hovering over their avatar.
