you have pressed a button and the message has been played, the
VocaFlex® Colour
immediately goes into “sleep mode” until a button is pressed again.
EXTERNAL CONNECTION:
You can connect an external loudspeaker or a telephone connection unit
on the back of
the
VocaFlex® Colour
. By using a telephone connection unit (for
example “Falck 3322 TelefonTilkobler”) the sound from
the
VocaFlex® Colour
will be transmitted to the phone
line so that both the user and the person he/she is
speaking with can hear. An external loudspeaker is
suitable for use in classrooms, or in situations where
many people are gathered and a high level of volume
is required.
HOLD DOWN DELAY AND RELEASE DELAY:
VocaFlex® Colour
is constructed so that you can put speech messages in cue, which
means you can push several successive keys and get your messages played one by one
without waiting for each message to finish before pushing next key. This can be of great
help for users who are able to build sentences. However, this may cause some problems
for users with trembling hands and for persons who tend push repetitively. You will
therefore find a ServiceGuide included with the
VocaFlex® Colour
for setting “Hold
down delay” and “Release delay”.
Hold down delay:
“Hold down delay” is the duration a key has to be
held down before the speech message is activated.
This time can be set from 0 to 8 seconds on
VocaFlex® Colour
. Users that tremble and
therefore tend to activate the same message
multiple times can avoid this by setting the Hold
down delay.
VocaFlex® Colour
will then only
register a key press if it lasts for the set time.
Trembling will not be registered as pressing the
key.
Release delay:
“Release delay” is the period after a key press has been accepted before another key
press will be accepted as valid. This may be useful for people who press a key multiple
times in order to activate a message; resulting in multiple activations. This can be
avoided by setting the Release delay. Release delay can be set from 0 to 8 seconds on
VocaFlex® Colour
