Playing Messages from a SimplyWorks Switch
1.
Place a SimplyWorks wireless switch close to
SMOOTH TALKER with LEVELS
.
2.
Ensure the
SMOOTH TALKER with LEVELS
is not in Record Mode.
3.
Press and hold the Pair Button [9] on SMOOTH TALKER until LED 6 flashes slowly.
4.
Immediately press the Pair Button on the SimplyWorks switch. The Pair LED on
SMOOTH TALKER with LEVELS
continues to flash slowly until pairing is complete,

The SimplyWorks wireless switch can be almost any SimplyWorks transmitter. As well as SWITCH

JOYSTICK can be used - as a wobble switch!
Note that wired and wireless switches can co-exist and perform the same function.
Controlling Battery Operated Toys/Appliances
To enhance the user experience and provide positive reinforcement,
SMOOTH TALKER with LEVELS
can
activate battery operated toys and appliances. Plug any switch adapted toy or appliance into the toy/
appliance socket [5]. To assign a message to the toy/appliance press the Record Button [1] briefly during
message recording. Every time this message is played the toy/appliance will activate for the duration
of the message. If the message is brief, consider adding a period of silence or even add some music so
the toy or appliance can perform for the required period. Any (or all) messages may have toy output
assigned.
Alternatively, for wireless activation of the toy/appliance,
SMOOTH TALKER with LEVELS
must be
paired with a SimplyWorks toy controller:
1.
Connect the toy/appliance to any toy controller e.g. CONTROL LITE, CONTROL or
CONTROL PRO.
2.
Press the Pair Button on the toy controller and the Pair LED will begin to flash slowly.
3.
Now press the Pair Button [9]
briefly
on
SMOOTH TALKER with LEVELS
. The Pair
LED on the toy controller will continue to flash slowly until pairing is complete at
which point the Pair LED will light steadily for 5 seconds.
4.
Assign a message following the above procedure.
Note that wired and wireless toys can co-exist and will be turned on and off simultaneously.
Controlling Software During Message Playback
SMOOTH TALKER with LEVELS
may also be paired with SimplyWorks RECEIVE to allow software to be
controlled by messages
which are assigned to toy/appliance control.
1.
Briefly press the Pair Button on RECEIVE and the Pair LED will begin to flash slowly.
2.
Now press the Pair Button [9]
briefly
on SMOOTH TALKER. The Pair LED on RECEIVE
will continue to flash slowly until pairing is complete at which point the Pair LED
will light steadily for 5 seconds.
Whenever a message is played which has toy/appliance control assigned, RECEIVE sends the Enter
character to the computer via the USB lead for the duration of the message. This allows software which
uses Enter to be used alongside
SMOOTH TALKER with LEVELS
.
