Grounded equipment must be plugged into an outlet, properly installed, and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances.
Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way.
Do not use plug adapters.
Check with an approved tester or qualified electrician if you believe an outlet may not be properly grounded.
Keep all electrical connections dry and off the ground.
Do not expose electrical equipment to rain or wet conditions.
Do not touch plugs or tools with wet hands.
Do not abuse the cords; do not carry equipment by its cord and never pull a cord to remove its plug from an outlet. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately.
Use only approved extension cords.
When using a scanning device or imager, do not look directly into the beam.
Statement of Agency Compliance
| Introduction | 14
Honeywell Vocollect Solutions devices and wireless headsets are designed to be compliant with the rules and regulations in the locations into which they are sold and are labeled as required. Honeywell devices are type approved and do not require the user to obtain license or authorization before using them. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Honeywell could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

Honeywell Battery Safety

Improper use of the battery may cause heat, fire, explosion, damage, or reduced battery capacity. Read and follow the handling instructions for the battery before and during use.
The following are general cautions and guidelines only, and as such may not include every possible usage scenario. The manufacturer will not be liable for actions taken or accidents caused by any use not documented below.
Warning:
Do not disassemble, open, drop (mechanical abuse), crush, bend, deform, puncture, or shred a battery.
Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into a battery, immerse or expose to water or other liquids, or expose to fire, excessive heat including soldering irons, or put in a microwave oven.
Only use a battery in the device for which it is specified.
Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion or other hazard.
Do not short-circuit the battery or allow metallic or conduction objects to touch any of the battery contacts simultaneously.
Replace a battery only with another battery that has been authorized by Honeywell for the product you are using. Use of an unqualified battery may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard.
Always replace a battery in a clean, dry environment.
Unit should be turned off when replacing its battery.
In the event of a battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with skin or eyes. If contact is made, flush the affected area with large amounts of water and seek immediate emergency medical advice and care.
Seek medical advice immediately if a battery is swallowed.
If at any time you witness a battery starting to distend or swell, smoke, or become hot to the touch, discontinue the charging process immediately and disconnect the battery and charger. Observe it from a safe place, preferably outside of any building or vehicle for approximately 15 minutes.

| Introduction | 15
Dispose used batteries promptly according to the local, state and/or federal regulations. Requirements and options vary greatly in different countries and in different parts of the United States. Many locations have facilities or companies set up for receipt of old batteries.
Honeywell batteries should not be used by children.
Honeywell shall not be held responsible for any damages caused by equipment malfunction when used with non-Honeywell batteries.
Honeywell shall not be held responsible for any damages caused by equipment malfunction when using a non-Honeywell charger.
CAUTION:
When a battery is expected not to be used for a long period of time, take it out the equipment or device and store at room temperature with normal humidity.

Cleaning Procedures for Honeywell Equipment

Honeywell Solutions products have a long service life if they are maintained properly. Follow recommended cleaning practices.
While Honeywell equipment is manufactured and tested to be resistant to normal dirt and deposits from the workplace environment, the build-up of residue can damage the equipment and degrade performance over time.
Dirt or corrosion can prevent the proper seating of terminals in chargers and may cause intermittent charging.
Talkman® Connector (TCO) contacts that build up dirt, chemicals, and corrosion may cause intermittent contact, static, and recognition problems.
Excessive dirt on a keypad membrane can cause the membrane to weaken and tear.
| Introduction | 17
CAUTION: Use only a solution of 70% isopropyl alcohol and water to clean equipment. Other products have not been tested and may degrade the equipment.

Cleaning Plastics

Cleaning Hard Plastics
Clean the hard plastics on headsets, devices, chargers, and batteries with a soft cloth that is wet with a solution of 70% isopropyl alcohol and 30% water.
Use a soft brush to keep the pocket areas of chargers free of dust and debris that may interfere with the seating of equipment or electrical contact.
Cleaning Foam and Pliable Plastics
Clean headset foam parts (ear pads and headband pads) as well as flexible bands and non-foam padding with a mild soap and water. Wash pads carefully so as not to tear or detach them.
Air dry the parts. Use of a concentrated heat source such as a hairdryer or clothes dryer is not recommended.
Replace pads that are excessively dirty, such as headset windscreens.
Related tasks
Cleaning Headsets on page 165

Cleaning Contacts

Clean flat contacts on the device, such as the Talkman Connector (TCO), or flat contacts on the battery and charger with a 70% isopropyl alcohol solution.
Use a soft, lint-free cloth or premoistened alcohol wipe. Avoid using a cloth with long or thick fibers as the fibers can attach to the connectors and cause intermittent contact.
Remove corrosion with a soft eraser (for example, a pencil eraser). The eraser must be in good condition (soft, pliable, and not worn down to the mounting). A good test is to rub the eraser against your skin. If it feels abrasive, do not use it, because it will damage the surface of the connectors.
Page 18
You can also use a three-row cleaning brush with natural hog hair bristles to gently brush away dirt on the contacts. A final alcohol wipe after this should ensure a clean contact.
Never bend or manipulate battery contacts.
Contact an authorized Honeywell Service Center to repair or replace contacts that are extremely corroded, bent, or missing.

Vocollect Talkman™ devices are wearable terminals used with Vocollect headsets to enable voice-directed work. Operators listen to instructions from these devices to perform tasks such as warehouse order picking and factory floor inspection, and then speak simple phrases to enter data.
All Talkman devices leave the operator's hands free to inspect items, pick products, drive vehicles, or repair defects.
Talkman A700 Product Family, A500, T5-series, and T2-series devices
These device models are rugged terminals designed for industrial use. These devices attach to a customized belt or shoulder harness, depending on device type, equipped with a specially designed clip.
The Talkman A500 VMT (Vehicle Mounted Talkman) and T5 VMT are A500 and T5 devices with battery adapters mounted to a warehouse vehicle, such as a forklift. After the device is mounted, the battery adapter is placed in the battery area of the device and connected to the vehicle's power source.
Talkman T1
The Talkman T1 has been specifically designed for light-duty, light-industrial environments. Talkman T1 device is a lighter, lower-cost alternative to the T2-series, T5-series, A500, and A700-series devices. It is intended for work in areas where you don't require an extremely rugged device. Talkman T1 devices fit into a customized holster with belt clip.
Speech Recognition Headsets
A Vocollect speech recognition headset with an attached microphone allows the operator to hear the device's instructions or questions. The operator talks to the device to request information and enters data by responding to the device's prompts.
Using Vocollect Adaptive Speech Recognition™, the headsets account for changes in speaking patterns over time and in different environments in order to improve voice recognition and system performance.
Product Use and Care
Talkman devices are assembled under strict Honeywell manufacturing guidelines. Tampering with a device in any manner will void published operating specifications and may void the product warranty.
When the Talkman is not in use, it should be placed properly into a charger.
Page 22
| Talkman Devices and Headsets | 22
Never remove the battery from a Talkman device unless it has been properly powered off.
Talkman devices are designed to be worn on the right side of the body with the device's buttons on the top (T5-series, T2-series, A500, A700­series) or facing front (T1) and its connectors toward the operator’s back (A500, T5-series, T2-series, A700-series) or pointed up (T1).
The Talkman T1 must be holstered with the holster opening facing up. Holstering with the opening facing down or to the side places the unit at risk for dropping.
Always use pads and windscreens with Honeywell headsets to protect the equipment and ensure optimum speech recognition performance.
Honeywell recommends changing headset windscreens every 90 days to ensure the best performance.
CAUTION: Use only a solution of 70% isopropyl alcohol and 30% water to clean the hard plastics on equipment. Other products have not been tested and may degrade the equipment.

Device Type Indicator
A700 series The ring is yellow and rotates, then the ring segment
turns solid green.
T2 series, T5 series and A500 First turns solid red while the processor reboots. It then
flashes red and green, turns solid, blinks red, then turns solid green.
T1 Turns solid green
2.
The device says, "Current operator is operator name. Please keep quiet for a few seconds." The device then starts a noise sample.
3.
After a brief pause, it says, "Please wait." After another pause, the device begins asking questions or providing instructions.
| Talkman Devices and Headsets | 23

Turning a Talkman Device Off

Use a button control to properly power off the Talkman device. In some cases, the device turns off automatically. In rare cases, a forced reset may be necessary. After the device is fully turned off, you can reboot it.
Powering Off by Using the Play/Pause Button
Press and hold the Play/Pause button until the LED indicator turns red. The device will store any data that has not been transmitted. After a few seconds, the device says, "Powering off." The device turns off, and the LED indicator light goes out.
CAUTION:
Do not remove the battery until the LED indicator is off. If you remove the battery when the device is on or sleeping, any data collected could be lost.
You should not turn off the device if the LED indicator is blinking red (A500, T5-series and T2-series) or has a rotating red ring (A700), unless it has been blinking red or rotating red for several minutes. If a device is turned off in this state, it may not be ready to use when it is turned back on.
Powering Off Due to Inactivity
If the device's software detects no device activity for a specified length of time, it powers off automatically.
Powering Off Due to Low Battery Levels
If the device's software detects that the current battery level is critically low, it powers off automatically.
Booting a Device After Powering Off
If a device was properly powered off, it does the following operations after a battery is placed into the device and the Play/Pause button is pressed:
Performs a background noise sample
Continues operation at the place in the task where you left off
Transfers any templates to the host that had not been sent prior to powering off
Page 24
| Talkman Devices and Headsets | 24
Transfers any output data records to the host that had not been sent prior to powering off
Transfers any lookup tables to the device that had not been received from the host prior to powering off
Forced Reset
This type of reset is invoked by removing the battery from the device without properly powering it off first.
CAUTION: Perform a forced reset only as a last resort. If you reboot a device in this manner:
the contents of its memory, including any data collected, will be lost
the device starts over at the beginning of the task
if you are in the process of retraining vocabulary, the device will send all vocabulary word templates to the host computer when the device is turned back on. Do not do anything until the templates have been sent to the host.
When the battery is replaced and the device is turned back on, it boots and attempts to load the current task and operator. Once the task and operator have successfully loaded, the device behaves identically to a one that has just had a new task or operator loaded.

Loading an Operator's Templates

You need a device with a charged battery, headset, and any other equipment (belt, bar code reader) you are going to use. You must be within radio range. Make sure the device is on or sleeping.

Understanding Talkman Commands

The Talkman device prompts the operator for responses that are specific to the voice-directed work he or she is performing. Several basic Talkman commands, however, can be spoken by the operator at almost any time while using the device.
You want to... Spoken Command
hear the current prompt again "Say again"
put the device in sleep mode "Talkman sleep"
wake up the device "Talkman wake up"
erase the previous response so you can respond to the same prompt again (VoiceClient only)
check the remaining charge on a Talkman A700 battery (VoiceCatalyst 2.0 and newer only)
hear instructions for your response to the current prompt "Talkman help"
"Talkman backup"
"Talkman battery status"
hear a list of vocabulary words that you can say at the current prompt
"Talkman help"
Page 27
You want to... Spoken Command
| Talkman Devices and Headsets | 27
indicate a problem and send a snapshot of the log file to VoiceConsole (VoiceCatalyst 1.2 and newer only)
"Talkman report problem"

Options for Hearing Impaired Users

Honeywell products are designed for persons with average levels of hearing. Operators who use assistive hearing devices may need to consider some adjustments when using Honeywell headsets in a production warehouse environment.
Honeywell recommends experimenting with combinations of several basic changes to Talkman device operation to improve audibility:
Change language voices using VoiceConsole (see VoiceConsole Online Help)
Adjust the pitch of the voice lower or higher
Adjust the volume of the voice louder or softer
Adjust the speed of the voice slower or faster
Change the gender of the voice to male or female
Users may find that their assistive devices are passing through additional background noise that makes it difficult to hear the Talkman device prompts. In this case, Honeywell recommends using a cupped headset to help eliminate distracting input from the assistive devices.
If a user continues to have problems hearing the Talkman device after trying these options, Honeywell strongly recommends consulting a medical professional. Hearing loss is a medical condition that requires the attention of a qualified audiologist. The audiologist should be made aware of the options that Honeywell products offer with pitch, volume, and sidetone so that he or she can make appropriate recommendations that may benefit the user without possible side effects. Honeywell Technical Support can talk with the user's audiologist to explain these options and make changes in the Talkman device configuration based on the specific recommendations of the audiologist.
CAUTION: There are a variety of parameters that can further increase output levels of the Talkman device. Honeywell does not recommend changing any of these settings in a way that increases sound output levels without consulting a qualified audiologist. Changing these settings without qualified medical supervision could result in additional hearding damage.
Honeywell products, and their default options, have been measured and qualified to ensure audio safety for common work flows and for the general population. The default audio parameters should not be changed without explicit direction from a qualified audio professional.
The Honeywell publication, Evaluating Audio Safety in Your Distribution Center, explains the importance of maintaining audio safety in the work environment. This publication is available to Honeywell partners on https://

Figure 1: Talkman™ A700 Devices
The Talkman™ A700 solution is a set of voice-centric appliances, each of which is a unique tool designed for a specific set of distribution center workflows, so each customer can pick the best tools for its needs. Each member of the A700 solution has a USB port that is used for maintenance, loading software, and connecting supervisor audio. The different appliances share the same standard platform. The A700 devices can integrate into various IT environments, provide an advanced battery management solution, and help customers keep better track of their devices.
The A710 is designed for use with Bluetooth wireless headsets and peripherals.
The A720 has two Talkman connectors for attaching wired headsets (yellow port) and wired peripherals (red/blue port).
The A730 has an imager designed for light scanning (10 to 15 scans per hour). The design supports common use cases such as tote induction or capturing the weight of specific products.
All three devices have maintenance ports that can be connected to a computer with a standard USB cable.
These devices are described in more detail in the following sections.

A700 VMT Installation Best Practices

Talkman devices and accessories are designed to provide reliable service when used as recommended. The thousands of Talkman VMT equipment users around the world who have followed the best practices outlined here are enjoying increased productivity with Talkman devices integrated on their vehicles.
Do not remove Talkman A700 devices from VMT configurations
Talkman VMT devices were designed and intended for easy installation. They were not designed for frequent removal.
The exception is the Talkman A730 which was designed to be removed from the holster for occasional scanning, not to exceed approximately six times per hour. Even if the A730 is not being removed for scanning, it requires a battery for backup power.
Note: Honeywell does not support configurations of the A700 without a battery.
Honeywell recommends that Talkman devices and cables be left in place after they are installed in vehicles. While these components may be removed for maintenance or temporary use in other areas, they should not be removed as a part of regular operation.
Warning: Frequent removal of the Talkman or cable will likely cause a premature mechanical failure to the cable or dock. This damage is not covered by normal product warranty.
Protect Talkman devices from damage
A Talkman device should be mounted on a vehicle in a location where operators can easily access Talkman controls and where the device is well protected from bumps or damage when the vehicle is in use. While recessed mounting offers good protection, the installer must ensure that this mounting does not interfere with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth™ connectivity of the Talkman device.
Page 65
| Talkman A700 | 65
Figure 8: Mount locations protected by vehicles but open
for good wireless reception (showing Talkman A500)
CAUTION: Do not mount the device in the driver's area of the vehicle or areas where it can distract the driver.
Consider additional options from RAM® Mounts In particular, the following standard RAM Mounts parts provide additional mounting flexibility.
Part Description Part Number Usage Image
Double 1" ball adapter RAM-B-230U The adapter offers more
articulation to maneuver and position the Talkman device in a protected area of the vehicle.
Double socket arm B Ball A length
Lock parts into place if they might be moved during normal operations
The parts used for mounting the Talkman were designed for a fixed position with easy adjustment. While unlikely, these parts may loosen over time with inadvertent impacts of daily use—especially if the mountings have not been firmly secured or if workers attempt to adjust the mounting manually.
To prevent this issue, remove the user-adjustable handle on the arm and install a 1/4" #20 nylon lock nut provided with the Vocollect VMT kit. The lock nut cannot be loosened by hand and resists most vibrations.
Secure VMT cabling
The cables and wiring that connect the Talkman VMT must be well secured to the vehicle so that they do not get caught on anything. Snagged cables could result in an accident and damage to the VMT or vehicle.
CAUTION: Separate the cabling from other wiring in the vehicle and ensure that it is routed away from sharp edges.
RAM-B-201U-A This arm and other arm
lengths offer options for the best vehicle fit.

TouchConfig: Bringing Additional A700 Devices Online

Prerequisite: A single device has been configured. The following instructions are for configuring additional devices.
Note: TouchConfig uses near field communication (NFC). Data sent through NFC is not encrypted nor does it follow any specific safety protocol. This is because the transfer occurs over such a short range that it is nearly impossible for data to be intercepted.
1.
Ensure that all devices are off.
2.
On the configured device, press and hold the Plus (+) button then press the Play/Pause button to put the device into sender mode. The ring's small segment will be solid yellow and the NFC indicator will blink yellow.
3.
On the unconfigured devices, press and hold the Minus (-) button then press the Play/Pause button to put the devices into receiver mode. The ring's large segment will be solid yellow and the NFC indicator will blink yellow.
4.
Turn each of the unconfigured devices so that the sides with the symbol are facing up.
5.
Hold the configured device so that the side of the device that has the symbol is facing down. Align the raised oval on the device with the raised oval on an unconfigured device. Ensure that the ovals are fully aligned, then hold the two devices steadily against each other.
| Talkman A700 | 72
Figure 12: Transferring the Configuration Using TouchConfig

Easy Configuration

Easy Configuration uses the serial connection between bays in the T5/A500 Combination Charger to distribute configuration files from one device to all devices in the charger. This feature allows new installations to quickly complete initial device configuration and simplifies adding new devices or returning repaired devices to service.
Any of the supported device models - T5, T5m, and A500 - may be configured using this feature. Multiple models may be configured in the charger at the same time. Please note, however, that some configurable parameters are specific to a device's radio card. Therefore, some parameters loaded from the master device to devices with different radios will not be effective, and devices that receive the distribution may not receive all of the desirable parameters for their specific radios.
Note: Easy configuration should be used only with a DHCP server.

Easy Configuration: Initial Setup

The following instructions are for initially setting up the site. That is, no devices are currently connected to VoiceConsole.
1.
Create a device profile in VoiceConsole. You can set the device profile as a "default profile," which automatically loads to any bare-platform devices. The
devices must be in standby mode and connected to VoiceConsole.
Note: The Talkman A500 model TT-802 ships as a bare-platform device. It does not have Vocollect voice software—VoiceCatalyst or VoiceClient—preloaded.
2.
In the Advanced Device Settings text box, type this parameter: "distributable"="1" The value of "1" marks the device profile as one that can be shared with other devices using the serial connection
between bays in the T5/A500 charger. If this parameter is not placed in the device profile or if its value is set to zero, the device profile will not be shared.
3.
Follow the instructions in the VoiceConsole online help for completing the device profile.
4.
Use a serial cable to load this profile to a single device.
Note: If the device profile you are loading is configured for use with static IP addresses, all the devices will have the same IP address.

Easy Configuration: Bringing Additional T5, T5m, and A500 Devices Online

A single device has been configured using the Easy Configuration Initial Setup instructions and VoiceConsole Online Help. The following instructions are for configuring additional devices.
1.
Place a properly configured T5, T5m, or A500 device in the transmit bay in the charger. When facing the charger bay, the transmit bay is the first bay on the right. It is identified with an off-white latch. The other bays have dark gray latches.
2.
Place the new or repaired T5, T5m, or A500 devices in the remaining charger bays.
The LED indicators on the unconfigured devices flash green until the devices determine that they cannot reach VoiceConsole.
Page 88
The LED indicators flash orange as the devices attempt to connect to the network to listen for a file broadcast.
The LED indicators flash green briefly as the devices receive profiles from the configured device and verify the configuration.
The LED indicators change to solid red as the devices reboot.
When the devices have applied the configuration file and successfully contacted VoiceConsole, the LED indicators change to blinking green. The devices are then ready to use or can be used in another charger to bring additional devices online.
Note: The AC power indicator at the bottom right of the charger displays alternating green and yellow lights when Easy Configuration operations are occurring. Devices should not be removed until the individual indicator on the device blinks green or the charger's power indicator glows solid green.

CAUTION: General Guidelines for Routing Electrical Cables
The vehicle must be off and the vehicle's battery must be disconnected.
Cables should be kept clear of surfaces that may become hot.
Cables should not be run such that they can get caught on moving parts.
Cables should not be run on the outside of a vehicle.
Cables should not have 90 degree turns, the minimum bend radius should not be less than one inch
To remove slack on a cable it should be coiled up and secured inside the vehicle with a cable tie.
For maximum safety fuses should be located as close as possible to the power source.
To protect the A500/T5 VMT from power surges and to perform voltage conversion a converter module is fitted between the A500/T5 VMT and the forklift battery.
1.
Disconnect the vehicle battery.
2.
Remove the four screws from the top of the power supply to expose the screw terminals.
3.
On the cable from power supply to the vehicle’s power source, strip the three cables to expose approximately 5mm of copper. Ensure the cable is long enough to reach from the power supply to the vehicle’s power source.
4.
On the yellow cable from the battery adapter to the power supply, strip the black and brown cable to expose approximately 5mm of copper. The Blue cable is not required; it can be trimmed where it exits the yellow cable. Ensure the cable is long enough to reach from the power supply to the vehicle’s power source.
5.

Removal of an A500/T5 VMT Device from Vehicle

Talkman A500/T5 VMT components are designed for easy removal for occasional vehicle service, maintenance or flexible operational needs.
Page 97
CAUTION: Honeywell does not recommend removing the cables (CM-710-102) from the battery adapter except when required for occasional service (i.e. once per month at maximum). Excessive removal of these cables may damage the adapter and cable. This type of use is not covered under warranty or service plans as it is unintended product use that is specifically not recommended.
1.
Release the battery adapter from the device.
2.
Dock the battery adapter in the side of the VMT holder. This leaves the device free to be removed and the battery adapter and cable docked and protected.
CAUTION: The battery adapter should remain cabled and docked when not in use to prevent cable damage or accidental contact of the adapter contacts with metal surfaces.

VMT Installation Best Practices

Talkman devices and accessories are designed to provide reliable service when used as recommended. The thousands of Talkman VMT equipment users around the world who have followed the best practices outlined here are enjoying increased productivity with Talkman devices integrated on their vehicles.
Do not remove Talkman A500 devices from VMT configurations
Talkman VMT devices were designed and intended for easy installation. They were not designed for frequent removal.
| Talkman A500 | 97
The A730 was designed to be removed from the holster for occasional scanning, not to exceed approximately six times per hour. Even if the A730 is not being removed for scanning, it requires a battery for backup power. Honeywell does not support configurations of the A700 without a battery.
Honeywell recommends that Talkman devices, cables, and VMT battery adapters be left in place after they are installed in vehicles. While these components may be removed for maintenance or temporary use in other areas, they should not be removed as a part of regular operation.
If a Talkman device must be removed, the battery adapter remains in the battery adapter dock.
Figure 41: Battery adapter docked in VMT configuration
CAUTION: Frequent removal of the Talkman, battery adapter and/or cable will likely cause a premature mechanical failure to the cable and/or battery adapter. This damage is not covered by normal product warranty.
Protect Talkman devices from damage
A Talkman device should be mounted on a vehicle in a location where operators can easily access Talkman controls and where the device is well protected from bumps or damage when the vehicle is in use. While recessed mounting offers good protection, the installer must ensure that this mounting does not interfere with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth™ connectivity of the Talkman device.
Page 98
Figure 42: Mount locations protected by vehicles but open for good wireless reception
CAUTION: Do not mount the device in the driver's area of the vehicle or areas where it can distract the driver.
Consider additional options from RAM® Mounts
The Honeywell parts provided for mounting Talkman devices represent a small set of the mounting options available from RAM Mounts (www.rammount.com). Honeywell only requires that customers purchase the BL-710-1, vehicle mount holder for Talkman. When used with the screw-on base attachment (BL-710-102) or other parts that use a 1" ball mounting, the VMT configuration may require additional parts that can be purchased from RAM Mounts for an optimal installation.
| Talkman A500 | 98
Figure 43: Screw on mounting using BL-710-1 vehicle mount holder
In particular, the following standard RAM Mounts parts provide additional mounting flexibility.
Part Description Part Number Usage Image
Double 1" ball adapter RAM-B-230U The adapter offers more
articulation to maneuver and position the Talkman device in a protected area of the vehicle.
Double socket arm B Ball A length
Lock parts into place if they might be moved during normal operations
RAM-B-201U-A This arm and other arm
lengths offer options for the best vehicle fit.
Page 99
| Talkman A500 | 99
The parts used for mounting the Talkman were designed for a fixed position with easy adjustment. While unlikely, these parts may loosen over time with inadvertent impacts of daily use—especially if the mountings have not been firmly secured or if workers attempt to adjust the mounting manually.
To prevent this issue, remove the user-adjustable handle on the arm and install a 1/4" #20 nylon lock nut provided with the Vocollect VMT kit. The lock nut cannot be loosened by hand and resists most vibrations.
Secure VMT cabling
The cables and wiring that connect the Talkman VMT must be well secured to the vehicle so that they do not get caught on anything. Snagged cables could result in an accident and damage to the VMT or vehicle.
CAUTION: Separate the cabling from other wiring in the vehicle and ensure that it is routed away from sharp edges.
The cable pictured here will not fall out of alignment and possibly snag anything while the vehicle is in motion. Note that there is enough slack in the cable to its right so that the battery adapter can be removed or installed in the Talkman device.
Figure 44: Cables secured on a vehicle
The cable end that connects to the battery adapter should have enough length to permit easy disconnection and docking of the battery adapter but not so much length that it could become snagged on something.
The cable may be secured to the bottom of the adapter using the two holes on the bottom of the docking area of the adapter. If the cable is secured in this manner, use spiral cable wrap, supplied with the VMT Talkman adapter, to provide additional protection.
Figure 45: Cables secured on a vehicle
To accomplish this mounting:
Place approximately 2.50 inches of spiral wrap (0.25-inch outer diameter) on the yellow cable with its
midpoint at 9 or 10 inches from the cable end connector.
Page 100
Using a cable tie (maximum 0.1 inch wide), attach the wrapped section of the cable to the RAM cradle using
the holes on the bottom of the adapter docking area as shown.
Cabling inside of the vehicle to the battery adapter should also be secured and maintained neatly to prevent cable travel and accidental damage or shorting. Cables should be kept clear of any articulating members. The full range of articulation should be exercised to ensure that any vehicular operation will not physically compromise the cables.

Accessories

Honeywell offers a variety of accessories for wearing, protecting, and facilitating the operations of Talkman and other devices.
Handheld and other devices may require specific cables in order to use Honeywell accessories, such as headsets. See the release notes for the Vocollect Voice software for your device for more information.
