Zusammenfassung:A hearing device system for testing a user's hearing capability, comprises: a processing unit configured to determine a plurality of tones and an order of the tones; an acoustic output transducer configured to output audio signals; a tone generator configured to output the tones, where a first set of the plurality of tones will be audible to the user and a second set of the plurality of tones will be inaudible to the user; and a user interface or a communication unit configured to receive an indication from the user indicating an audible tone being perceived; wherein one of the tones comprises a new tone, and wherein the processing unit is configured to determine the new tone based on: whether a predefined number of preceding tones were audible or inaudible to the user, and an estimated probability of whether the new tone will be audible or inaudible to the user.
