Abstract

In a hearing aid system, which comprises at least one hearing aid device, incorrect adaptation of the signal processing unit of the hearing aid device to the receiver used is intended to be avoided. To this end, automatic identification of the type of receiver used is proposed, as well as automatic adaptation of the signal processing in the hearing aid device by the hearing aid system. Incorrect manual adaptation is thereby prevented.
