Method and system for selective coupling of a communication unit to a hearing enhancement device

摘要

The invention concerns a method ( 200 ) and system ( 100 ) for selectively coupling a communication unit ( 110 ) to a hearing enhancement device ( 112 ). The method includes the steps of-in the communication unit-selecting ( 212 ) between an acoustic coupling setting and an inductive coupling setting, in response to the selecting step, switching ( 214 ) an audio output of the communication unit to an acoustic coupling path ( 136 ) or an inductive coupling path ( 138 ), and outputting ( 226 ) through either the acoustic coupling path or the inductive coupling path an audio signal to the hearing enhancement device.
