Abstract
An especially small operating device for a hearing aid, but one which is nevertheless simple for a user to actuate manually, which still enables a multiplicity of different operating functions in a simple and clear manner is provided. The use of a fingerprint sensor is provided for this purpose, whereby different operating functions are assigned to the individual fingers of the user. Depending on the finger with which the user actuates the fingerprint sensor, different operating functions are initiated.

8. An operating device for a hearing aid, comprising:
-
a signal processing unit for processing an electrical input signal and emitting an electrical output signal; and a fingerprint sensor for detecting a fingerprint, wherein a parameter of the signal processing unit in the hearing aid is modified by a single actuation of the fingerprint sensor by a finger of the user, and wherein the parameter is selected as a function of the finger with which the user actuates the fingerprint sensor. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. An operating device for a hearing aid, comprising:
-
a fingerprint sensor for detecting a fingerprint; and a signal processing unit for processing an electrical input signal and emitting an electrical output signal, the signal processing unit having a plurality of parameters relating to the processing, each parameter associated to a fingerprint, wherein after the fingerprint sensor detects a fingerprint, the parameter associated with the respective fingerprint is modified. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 26, 27)
