Abstract
A hearing assistive system, comprises a personal communication device () and a head-worn device (). The personal communication device () has a user interface () being adapted for user interaction, a processor () controlling the user interface () and being adapted to run an application program, a short-range radio (), and an output transducer (). The head-worn device () has an input transducer () adapted for converting sound into an electric signal applied to a processor () outputting a modified audio signal via an output transducer (). The application program is adapted to generate and output a data packet () on an audio carrier via the output transducer (). The head-worn device () has an audio signaling block () for detecting and decoding the data packet () received by the input transducer (). The head-worn device () has a controller () for controlling the operation of a short-range radio (). The audio signaling block () is adapted to detect a radio pair command included in the data packet (), and to instruct the controller () to enter pairing mode for the short-range radio (), accordingly.
