Abstract

Die Ausgabe von Signaltönen von Hörgeräten für eine binaurale Versorgung soll synchronisiert werden. Dazu ist vorgesehen, die Zähler (Z1, Z2) der beiden Hörgeräte (HG1, HG2) durch ein Synchronisationssignal gleichzusetzen. Durch Senden eines Kontrollsignals mit einem Zählwert oder vor einem vorgegebenen Zählwert wird das gleichzeitige Abgeben eines Signaltons von den beiden Hörgeräten (HG1, HG2) initiiert. Alternativ können zur indirekten Synchronisation der Zähler (Z1, Z2) auch die jeweiligen Differenzen der Zählerstände in den einzelnen Hörgeräten (HG1, HG2) gespeichert werden.

The output of beeps from hearing aids for a binaural supply is to be synchronized. For this purpose, it is provided to equate the counters (Z1, Z2) of the two hearing aids (HG1, HG2) by a synchronization signal. By sending a control signal with a count or before a predetermined count, the simultaneous delivery of a beep is initiated by the two hearing aids (HG1, HG2). Alternatively, the indirect synchronization of the counters (Z1, Z2) and the respective differences of the counter readings in the individual hearing aids (HG1, HG2) can be stored.
