or not.)

messages can be recorded in any order. Also you can
rerecord one message without having to rerecord any
other messages.)
5. Press and hold the Record button firmly. The Record
LED will begin to flash. Continue holding the Record
button until the Record LED goes out (about two

ONFIGURE TO SUPPLY ONLY TWO MESSAGES
1. 2 message templates are included with the VoicePal
Max. Make an overlay with appropriate symbols or
pictures and slide it into the pouch.
2. Set the DIP switches as shown below.
3. Buttons #1, #2, #6 & #7 act as one large button activat-
ing message 1. Likewise buttons #4, #5, #9, and #10
activate message 2. There is a natural “dead space” in
the area of buttons #3 and #8.
4. Record new messages as described earlier on page 6.
Note
: When switching between 2, 3, 4, and 10 message
modes, it is best to rerecord the messages since the
VoicePal Max re-configures its memory each time.
Please remember the Quick Start Guide is only
intended to let you begin using the VoicePal Max. To
become familiar will all the features and use it to its
full potential you must read the “Detailed Operating
Instructions.”
