A wireless microphone (1) comprises a radio transmitter for transmitting
radio signals carrying audio signals to a hearing device. The wireless
microphone (1) further comprises at least one coupling element (11) for
detachably fixing one of various interchangeable functional modules (2)
to the wireless microphone (1). The coupling element (11) is designed to
fix the interchangeable functional module (2) to the wireless microphone
(1) by mating with a coupling element (21) of the interchangeable
functional module (2). The coupling elements (11, 21) comprise electrical
contacts (12, 22) for electrically connecting the interchangeable
functional module (2) to the wireless microphone (1) when the
interchangeable functional module (2) is fixed to the wireless microphone
(1) by means of said coupling elements (11, 21). The coupling element
(11) constitutes a bidirectional electrical interface between the
wireless microphone (1) and the interchangeable functional module (2).
The wireless microphone (1) can be limited to an assistive listening
device with basic functions and features, extendible by the user with
extra functions and features as needed.
