With cue word auditory scanning, each message
has a separate cue word or phrase associated with it.
When the external scan switch is pressed, each cue word
plays one-by-one, quietly, privately through a headphone
or pillow speaker. When the user hears the desired cue
word, he or she can then select it by pressing the scan
switch. This will cause the entire message associated
with the cue word to play loudly over the built-in
speaker. It is best to rerecord your messages and cue
words when using cue word auditory scanning.

reserve space just for cue words. To eliminate any
message confusion when switching from Standard to Cue
Word scanning, it is best to rerecord your messages and

Follow these steps to record cue words.

flash. Continue to hold the Record button until the
Record LED goes solid (about 2 seconds), then release.
The VoicePal Max is now in record mode. Now press
the Record button once and LED #10 lights up. When
LED #10 is on, the VoicePal Max will record cue words.
When it is off, it will record regular messages.
2. Record cue words the same way you recorded messages
as described in the “Recording Messages” section.
3. You will need to rerecord the actual messages as well.
Press the Record button once and LED #10 will turn off,
but still leaving the Record LED on. You may now
record actual messages.
4. Turn the Record LED off by pressing and holding the
Record button. The Record LED will flash. Continue
holding until the LED goes out, then release.
