Carry on a conversation!

A spectacular combination with single, sequential, and random message capabilities with an output for activating other devices. Sequential capability is great for storytelling, singing songs, telling a joke or carrying on a conversation with your friends. Press the plate the first time and the first message is spoken; press it again and the second message is heard; etc. Random capability is great for playing games that use dice, spinners, cards and more. Record up to 250 messages. Total record time is 300 seconds. Also can be activated by an external switch. Comes with a clear cover. Size: 6¼"L x 6¼"W x 3"H. Requires 4 AAA Batteries.

1. Carefully turn unit over and remove the small screw from the battery compartment. Slide the battery compartment cover off. Observing polarity, install four AAA size batteries (Not included) into the holder. Use alkaline batteries only (e.g. Duracell or Energizer brand). Do not use rechargeable batteries or any other type of batteries because they supply lower voltage and the unit will not perform properly. Never mix old and new batteries together or different brands or types together. Replace the battery compartment cover and replace the screw.

Each time the user presses and releases the switch plate on the top of the unit, they will hear the messages recorded either in the sequence in which they were recorded or randomly depending on your settings. There is also a 1/8" female jack that will accept most external capability switches. When using an external switch, make sure there are no gaps between the connections, push cables in tightly.

6. When you are done using the unit, turn it off. If you will not be using the unit for a prolonged period of time, remove the batteries from the battery compartment.

7. A removable clear plastic cover can be used to hold picture icons or words. To remove the cover, carefully lift up on one side of the clear cover. Place your icon then place the cover over the plate and press the cover down gently. Do not hit or press the cover down, doing so can damage the unit and make removal of the cover difficult.

8. The Small Talk Sequencer can also be activated by another external capability switch, via the switch input jack located on the side of the unit. Make sure your switch is plugged in all the way with no gaps. External switch activation will replicate as if the large switch plate on the device was depressed.
