Loading an Operator's Templates
You need a device with a charged battery, headset, and any other equipment (belt, bar code reader) you are
going to use. You must be within radio range. Make sure the device is on or sleeping. The LED indicator
should be either solid green or blinking green (A500, T5-series and T2-series), solid green (T1), or have a
solid green ring segment or a rotating green ring (A700).
1.
Press the Operator button.
The device says "Current operator is operator name. Select menu item."
2.
Press the + button or — button until the device says, "Change operator."
3.
Press the Operator button.
4.
The device says, "Please wait" and retrieves a list of operators and teams. Wait for the device to say,
"Select team".
• If the device says "Current operator is (operator name). Change operator", skip to step 8.
5.
Press the + button or — button to scroll through the list of operator teams until you hear the name of a
team to which you belong.
6.
Press the operator button.
The device says, "Please wait" and retrieves a list of all operators who belong to the team that was selected.
The device then says, "Current operator is (operator name). Select new operator."
7.
Press the + button or — button to scroll through the list of available operator names until you hear your
name.
• If you do not hear your name, press the yellow play/pause button to cancel this operation and start
over from step 2.
• When selecting a team in step 5, choose the "All Operators" team.
• Consult with your supervisor if you are not listed in the "All Operators" team.
8.
Press the operator button.
The device says, "Loading operator" and loads your templates. Once it has loaded your templates, the
device says, "Current operator is (your operator name). Good night." The device then goes to sleep. The
next time you turn the device on, it will be ready to use.
Adjusting the Voice
Each Vocollect Talkman device uses Vocollect Voice software to provide instructions to the operator and
prompt him or her for responses.
The actual voice that speaks to the operator can be adjusted in several ways so that the operator can hear
and understand the information clearly.
• Adjust the pitch of the voice lower or higher
• Adjust the volume of the voice louder or softer
• Adjust the speed of the voice slower or faster
• Change the gender of the voice to male or female
Before making any changes to the voice:
Make sure the device is on or sleeping. The LED indicator should be either solid green or blinking green
(A500, T5-series and T2-series), solid green (T1), or have a solid green ring segment or a rotating green ring
(A700).
