  • a hearing aid is known from EP-A-0 064 042, in which the parameters of a number of different environmental situations are stored in a memory.
  • a switch e.g. the first group of parameters is called up and, via a control unit, controls a signal processor connected between the microphone and the handset, which then sets a transmission function intended for an intended environment. All programmed transmission functions can be called up in succession by the hearing device wearer via a so-called situation switch until the transmission function suitable for the hearing device wearer is found.
  • automatic adjustment is also provided if the user e.g. comes from a noisy environment to a quiet environment or vice versa.
  • the hearing aid is connected to an external programming unit via an electrical line.
  • a hearing aid with a receiving part for receiving wirelessly transmitted signals is known, the hearing aid being provided with externally accessible contact elements, such that the receiving part has at least one receiver electrode and contact elements which are in contact with the contact elements of the Hearing aid can be brought into engagement in order to keep the receiver electronics in electrical connection with the circuit of the hearing aid.
