What is the SET mode of hörbert?

Explanation of hörbert’s SET mode

For all settings on the hörbert model with rotary knob for switching on/off, the Browser Set Mode, is available.

However, there is also the possibility to activate some special functions, such as Bluetooth, WLAN or the voice microphone without the Browser Set Mode. Which functions can be set is shown by this SET template. It is always included in the package when a new hörbert is delivered:

How do you put hörbert into SET mode?

  1. Open the rear back panel with a coin and pull out the back panel.
  2. Switch hörbert on, it will then play normally through its speaker.
  3. Press once on the small button labelled “SET” to the right of the hörbert logo on the circuit board inside hörbert. The LED on the SET button now lights up green continuously. hörbert is silent. The front buttons are now in SET mode.
  4. Set the desired functions. You can set all functions at once. A detailed explanation of the individual functions can be found below.
  5. Important: After setting the functions, you must press the SET button again inside to save them.
  6. There is a time-out of approx. 5 minutes. So make all desired settings within this time and press the SET button again at the end to save.
  7. Wait a few seconds afterwards until hörbert plays normally again and then switch it off or let hörbert continue to entertain you, just as you like.

What do the symbols on the SET template mean?

  1. Dark purple button: Activate Sleep Timer by pressing once. If you hear a single signal tone, the Sleep Timer is now activated. If you hear a double, somewhat deeper tone, the Sleep Timer is off. To activate, simply press the dark purple button again. ON is illustrated on the template by the green tick. OFF is illustrated by the red XX .
  2. Red and dark blue button: set desired playing duration of the Sleep Timer. Each click on the red button means +1 hour. You can set up to 7 hours playing time, then the counter starts again at 0, illustrated by a double signal tone. Each click on the dark blue button means: +10 minutes. So you can set a playing time of 2.5 hours, for example, by pressing the red button twice and the dark blue button three times.
  3. Light green button: activate Bluetooth (single signal tone) / deactivate (double signal tone)
  4. Yellow button: activate Pairing (single signal tone) / deactivate (double signal tone). If you want to pair a new Bluetooth device, e.g. mobile phone or wireless headphones with hörbert for the first time, you must activate both Bluetooth and Pairing. Once all desired devices in the household have been paired, the Pairing function can then be deactivated again on hörbert via the yellow button. This should prevent unwanted external devices from connecting accidentally.
  5. Dove blue button (middle row far right): Delete all pairings.
  6. Light blue button: activate volume limitation (pp stands for piano. This quiet setting is active when the double signal tone is heard)
  7. Orange button: activate WiFi for Internet radio listening (single signal tone) / deactivate (double signal tone)
  8. Dark green button: activate voice microphone (single signal tone) / deactivate (double signal tone)
