Microsoft Outlook:

The Sonic-connect is compatible with Microsoft 
Outlook’s email, task and calendar reminders. No 
confi guration is needed. You will be automatically 
alerted after setting up your alert function for email, 
appointment/event schedule reminder on your 
calendar page. 

Select the reminder box by checking it, then select 
from the drop menu the amount of time to be alerted 
to before the event. Your Sonic-connect will not alert 
you if the “Reminder” is not checked.  If you would like 
to have a recurring alert, such as a daily wake up call, 
or a weekly meeting, you can use the “Recurrence” 
function of the Microsoft Outlook scheduling window. 
You can use your Sonic-connect as your smart alarm 
clock that is totally managed by your Outlook 
scheduling system!

Important To Know:

Your Sonic-connect relies on your computer to run the 
program to check for your messages and provide alerts. 
In order for your device to work, you need to leave your 
computer powered on. If your computer is turned off, in 
hibernation or in sleep mode, the Sonic-connect will not 
provide alerts.

In order for your Sonic-connect

 

to remain active 

and ready for alerts, you need to leave your computer 
powered on, also you will need to confi gure your 
Windows operation system’s power saving option, so 
your computer does not automatically turn off, go into  
hibernation or sleep mode after a period of inactivity. 
You can fi nd and change your computer’s power saving 
option by fi nding the icon under the Control Panel. 
Make sure to check the “never” choice under hibernation 
or sleep options:
