Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2028881A2] The system has two hearing aid devices (1, 11) with microphones (2, 12), signal processing units (3, 13) and headsets (4, 14). Transmission-and-control units (5, 15) and transmitting-and-receiving coils (7, 17) are provided for wireless signal transmission between the aid devices. The aid devices exhibit respective sensor units for detecting an outer magnetic field. One aid device is automatically switched into an operating mode when one sensor unit detects the magnetic field. Both the aid devices are switched-off when the sensor units simultaneously detect the magnetic field. An independent claim is also included for a method for operating a hearing aid device system.
