Abstract

Es soll eine besonders kleine, aber dennoch einfach von einem Benutzer manuell betätigbare Bedieneinrichtung für ein Hörhilfegerät geschaffen werden, die dennoch in einfacher und übersichtlicher Weise eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Bedienfunktionen ermöglicht. Hierfür ist die Verwendung eines Fingerabdrucksensors (7, 21) vorgesehen, wobei den einzelnen Fingern des Benutzers unterschiedliche Bedienfunktionen zugewiesen werden. Dadurch werden in Abhängigkeit davon, mit welchem Finger der Benutzer den Fingerabdrucksensor betätigt, unterschiedliche Bedienfunktionen ausgelöst.

It is a particularly small, but still easy to be created by a user manually operable control device for a hearing aid, which nevertheless allows a variety of different operating functions in a simple and clear manner. For this purpose, the use of a fingerprint sensor (7, 21) is provided, wherein the individual fingers of the user are assigned different operating functions. As a result, depending on which finger the user actuates the fingerprint sensor, different operating functions are triggered.
