This document uses the word “button” to refer to
a specific physical button on the keypad. Any action
involving buttons one through ten can also be performed
by plugging in an external switch to the corresponding
jack on the top edge of the VoicePal Max. DIP Switches
refer to the small slide switches numbered 1 through 6
located on the lower edge of the VoicePal Max. “LED”
is short for light emitting diode. It refers to the small red
lights on the VoicePal Max.
1. Blank 10 message templates are included with your
VoicePal Max. Make an overlay with symbols appropri-
ate for your application, then insert it into the pouch on
the top of the VoicePal Max. If you have a scanning
version, punch holes in the overlay so the LEDs show
through. Boardmaker, by Mayer-Johnson, Inc. can also
be used to create overlays for the VoicePal Max. See the
section on Overlays for more information.
2. Insert four AA alkaline batteries included with your
VoicePal Max. Make sure the batteries are installed
correctly.
