• Go to Intricon's website:
  • http://www.intricon.com
  • Products > Hearing Health > Support (http://www.intricon.com/products/hearing-health/tools),
  • Download product drivers and Slider (engineering software),

• Go to OnSemi ARKOnline (http://ark.onsemi.com) and login. Visit “Library Manager” > “Libraries” (left column).
• Edit product library: Click “Edit” next to product library to modify, under the section “Audina Hearing Instruments Libraries”. Eg: ezRhythm
• Change appropriate settings, then click on “Build” button at the top. Wait a few minutes for the compilation to finish before downloading it.

• Download DLLs from ARK Online. Click on the “Download” link beside the product library.
• Unzip the DLL download, and copy files to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Audina\Drivers (or alternatively to C:\WINDOWS\ARK).
• Run “ARK Component Manager” (Start → Programs → On Seminconductor → Configuration Tools) (file “C:\Program Files (x86)\ON Semiconductor\ARK\IDS.exe”) as Administrator.
• Install the DLLs.
• Review product parameters. Use spec sheets.

In AHI.App.Types (file Types.cs), add entries in these enums:

public enum TCircuitID
{ . . . }
public enum TProductID
{ . . . }

New Circuit. For a new circuit (not just a new product), create a library such as AHI.Instrument.Circuit.<ManufName>.<CircuitName> (Eg. AHI.Instrument.Circuit.Intricon.Audion6). This library has these files:

• <CircuitName>.Custom.Methods.cs
• <CircuitName>.Library.cs
• <CircuitName>.Products.Info.cs

Supported Products/Styles. In file, AHI.Instrument.Circuit.<ManufName>.<CircuitName>\<CircuitName>.Products.Info.cs:

• Add all product (and their styles) supported in a circuit to
  • Intricon: Lib_CreateProductList()
  • OnSemi: Lib_CreateLibraryList()

Parameters. In file AHI.Instrument.Circuit.<ManufName>.<CircuitName>\<CircuitName>.Products.Info.cs:

• Add and edit parameters in SetMemoryParameters(), SetConfigParameters(), and SetCustomParameters().
• Customize product and style parameters in SetAdditionalProductInfo() and SetAdditionalStyleInfo().

Using a product library. In project ezFIT, add library as a dependency to ezFIT:

• Right-click on ezFIT project.
• Select “Project Dependencies”.
• Mark checkbox for new library. Eg: AHI.Instrument.Circuit.Intricon.Audion6

In AHI.Instrument.Circuit.<ManufName>.<CircuitName> (eg.AHI.Instrument.Circuit.Intricon.Audion6), add an entry for each Product+Style combination supported by that circuit:

private enum TCircuitProdStyle
{
    Undefined        = 00,
    ProdName1_Style1 = 01,
    ProdName1_Style2 = 02,
    . . .
    ProdName2_Style1 = n1,
    ProdName2_Style2 = n2,
    . . .
}

In AHI.Fitting.TSupportedProductList.PopulateProductInfoList() (file AHI.Fitting.ProductInfo.cs), add library:

  ProdLibPath = new string[] {
                      ...
                      rootdir + @"\AHI.Instrument.Circuit.Intricon.Audion8.dll",
                      ...
  };                      
  . . .
  Add(new TSupportedProduct(TCircuitID.Audion6, /* TProductID.prod_IntuitionRIC6.ToString(), */
                    TCircuitManufCode.Intricon,
                    TProductID.prod_IntuitionRIC6,
                    ProdLibPath[4],
                    "AHI.Instrument.Circuit.Intricon.Audion6.TAudion6",
                    false /* use for autodetection */ ));
  . . .

In AHI.Product.Specification.TProductSpecificationList.RefreshList(), add code:
