   That occurred to me after hitting send. That might be where my original   
   settings came from, but I had a few visits, interviews and 2 adjustments   
   so far.

   I'm sure.   
      
   The manufacturer is Phonak...   
      
   okay, my audiologist told me the software wasn't available, but here it   
   is:

   ing-software/ipfg_software_downloads.html   
   http://tinyurl.com/me9ozjl   
      
    THE USE OF THIS SOFTWARE BY UNQUALIFIED PERSONS AS A NON-HEARING CARE   
    PROFESSIONAL CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY. PHONAK IS EXEMPT FROM ANY   
    LIABILITY WHICH OCCURS BY SUCH UNAUTHORIZED USE.   
      
   Looks like Phonak sells instructions:
