  Set the record/play switch to “Play”  

  Check that the recording was satisfactory by following 

Playing speech messages 

using 2-keys-sequence 

on next page.  

  If you are not satisfied with the recording, please repeat the procedure. 

Interrupted recording: 

If you do not complete the recording of a sequence (do not push the second key), the red 
LED will flicker for 10 seconds and then go into “sleep mode”.  

 

When recording speech messages in sequence you may experience that the red LED 
flickers red after you have finished your recording and that no speech has been recorded. 
The reason is most likely that a key press has not been registered as valid or that the 
pressing of the second key was interrupted (it may have been pressed too lightly for a 
moment). If this happens, wait until the LED stops flickering (about 10 seconds), and then 
you may repeat the procedure.  
 

 

PLAYING SPEECH:

 

Playing speech messages using single keys: 

  Make sure the record/play switch is set to “Play”  

  Press the desired key 

The green LED will light until the message has been played.  
 

Switch position for playing recorded speech (Normal position) 

 

 

 

Playing speech messages using 2-keys-sequence: 

  Make sure the Record/Play switch is set to “Play” 

  Press the desired key 

  Press the second key of the sequence within 10 seconds  

The green LED will start to flicker as soon as you press the first key. The green LED will 
light until the message has been played after you press the second key. If there hasn’t 
been recorded anything on this sequence, the LED will switch off and nothing will 
happen. 
 
Nothing will happen if you try to use a SmartGuide that hasn’t been used for recording. If 
you have recorded speech for only some of the keys on a SmartGuide, you will still not 
hear anything when you press one of the unused keys.
