GETTING ACQUAINTED

This section introduces the basics about iLane and what it does.

1.0 Welcome to iLane

You will soon be on the road with the world's only complete handsfree solution that makes it safer and smarter for you to manage critical information while in-vehicle. By simply conversing with iLane™ through your own hands-free system, you can enjoy iLane’s rich set of features to comfortably keep up with your Inbox, send email, field phone calls, check your day’s calendar, and even enjoy on-demand content services such as news and weather reports, all while continuing to focus on your most important driving task: safety.

1.1 What is iLane?

iLane is an intelligent in-vehicle device that uses a simple interface of spoken prompts and commands to manage your email and other smartphone communications. With iLane on board, you simply

listen to read and speak to send. You

will find that iLane has a pleasant conversational style (for example, “Good Morning, Jane…”), and reads messages aloud only at your request. You can listen to as much or as little as you like, all through your vehicle’s own handsfree system and speakers.

Wish to respond to an email? Say Reply, then continue speaking to record a VoiceNote – you can even say Review to check it before sending. Or perhaps you would like to Forward a message or need

SECTION

iLane 7100 User’s Guide

GETTING ACQUAINTED

to quickly Call Back. Just relax and work naturally – iLane is listening.

iLane’s range of intuitive voice commands also provides efficient management of other smartphone applications such as phone calls, incoming SMS and PIN messages, your calendar, and even ondemand news or weather reports. With nothing to type or view when using iLane, your can keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road.

1.2 How Does iLane Work?

Once iLane is activated and paired to your smartphone and your hands-free system as described in Section 3, simply enter your vehicle. iLane will recognize and “connect” to both components via the two secure Bluetooth links you have established, and will seamlessly manage the in-vehicle flow of your email, calls and other information for the entire iLane session.

When you exit your vehicle, iLane communications automatically stop and your smartphone resumes normal operation outside the vehicle.

Here is a brief example of how iLane manages an incoming email and a response using the two Bluetooth wireless links in a typical iLane system – see Figure 1 and Figure 2:

(1) In Figure 1 below, one or more messages arrive on your

smartphone and are detected by iLane while you are driving.

(2) iLane announces the new messages through your vehicle’s

hands-free system and speakers, then awaits your response.

(3) Choose from dozens of simple voice commands – for instance,

say Read Message to hear message content.

Figure 1. Receiving and Opening a Message

(4) See Figure 2 below. iLane reads the message aloud through

your vehicle’s hands-free system and speakers.

(5) At any time, respond to iLane as you wish – say Reply, Delete,

Forward, Call Back, or many others.

(6) iLane relays your response to your smartphone, where the action

is completed.

GETTING ACQUAINTED

1.5 Compatibility in Your Vehicle

Your own Bluetooth hands-free system (HFS) is your primary interface with iLane, relaying iLane prompts and your voice commands – you will listen to iLane through your HFS speakers, and you will speak to iLane through your HFS microphone. Choose one of the hands-free systems listed below, whichever best suits your needs for convenience and performance:

 a Bluetooth wireless headset such as the iLane BlueAnt z9i option

– OR –

 an in-vehicle Bluetooth wireless system (factory-installed or aftermarket kit)

NOTE: For clarity in illustrations, the hands-free system graphic shown at right and throughout this guide represents the headset or in-vehicle HFS of your choosing.

1.6 Where to Install

Keep in mind a few minimum requirements when securing iLane in your vehicle:

 For best results, complete iLane setup and Bluetooth™ pairing

prior to any permanent mounting – see Section 3.

 Ensure that safe entry, exit and operation of the vehicle is not

jeopardized by any part of your iLane system.

Secure iLane in place – avoid driving with components “loose”



in the vehicle interior.

Secure the iLane power cable away from doors, pedals, steering



column, windshield, mirrors, gearshift, or other moving parts.

 iLane does not need to be accessible during normal operation, and

should be kept out of direct sunlight.

 It is good practice to store iLane out-of-sight, such as in a locked

glove box, to discourage theft.

2.1 Status Lights and Buttons

SSTTAATTUUSS LLIIGGHHTTSS

iLane’s status lights (a.k.a. LEDs, or light-emitting-diodes) indicate current operating conditions regarding power, Bluetooth wireless links to your smartphone and hands-free system, audio activity, system errors and more. These LEDs are particularly helpful when confirming your initial system setup/pairing progress, or for troubleshooting unexpected behavior – you will not need to consult iLane LEDs for day-to-day use.

To minimize distraction in the vehicle, the brightness of these lights auto-adjusts to suit changing ambient light levels. They will brighten in daylight, and will gradually dim as darkness sets in.

Two identical Power lights are typically “ON” during every iLane session.

For all other conditions, check the 3 Connectivity and System lights located near the top edge of iLane.

iLane 7100 User’s Guide

KNOW YOUR iLANE

These 3 LEDs describe iLane’s current wireless connections to your smartphone (for communications) and hands-free system (for audio), as well as iLane’s current operating mode and voice command activities. Refer to the chart below for various conditions you may encounter:

iLane 7100 User’s Guide

Common conditions you may notice during use are shown at right.

BBUUTTTTOONNSS

iLane includes four multi-purpose buttons for convenient shortcuts to device wake-ups, recoveries, adjustment of local settings, manual on/off, volume control, and other infrequent but crucial functions. In some cases, an iLane button press simply offers an alternative to a voice command or hands-free control.

Button behavior varies depending on iLane’s current state. See below for a complete list of all button functions:

== PPOOWWEERR

 Turn iLane ON (required after “deep sleep” mode)  Turn iLane OFF

(hold 3 seconds)

2.4 iLane and Your Hands-Free System (HFS)

NOTE: Consult your HFS documentation for supported features and

performance.

Once iLane is set up and paired as described in the iLane Quick Start or in Section 3 of this manual, your own wireless hands-free

system (HFS) manages audio to and from iLane. Whether you prefer to use the iLane headset option (available separately) or your own factory-installed or 3 system, you will speak through your HFS microphone and listen through your HFS speakers.

PPAAIIRRIINNGG TTOO YYOOUURR HHAANNDDSS--FFRREEEE SSYYSSTTEEMM

Pairing iLane to your hands-free system is your final setup step – see the iLane Setup Procedure (see page 24) and/or the Quick Start provided with iLane. Although some specific “how-to” pairing tasks depend on your chosen HFS, the overall pairing process is the same:

(1) Familiarize yourself with your hands-free system and how to start its

pairing mode.

(2) Pair iLane to your smartphone before pairing iLane to your HFS. (3) When ready, activate/start “pairing mode” (a.k.a. “discovery mode”) on

your HFS. Be aware that some HFS pairing modes last for limited time.

(4) Make sure iLane is also in pairing mode so that it can detect your HFS. (5) Use your smartphone to choose and accept the proper HFS pairing. (6) iLane and your HFS should auto-connect to each other from now on.

control buttons on your hands-free system. Since availability and performance depend on what HFS you are using, please consult the product documentation supplied with your HFS for specific HFS operating instructions.

HOW TO SET UP iLANE

 Disconnect, disable or delete any previous

Bluetooth pairing (i.e., communication link) you may have established between your smartphone and another device, such as a headset or your in-vehicle hands-free system. The other device may interfere with iLane setup by attempting to reconnect with the smartphone. On most smartphones, look for these paired devices in

Bluetooth Options.

 iLane will access your smartphone’s Address Book (contacts) during

setup and use. You may wish to first copy any SIM contacts to your Address Book so that you can immediately access them with iLane too.

 Locate the web browser on your smartphone – typically

the browser is represented by a “globe” icon on the main applications page. Your smartphone requires internet access for iLane setup and use.

NOTE: Access to smartphone Bluetooth options and internet features may vary according to smartphone model. Please consult the product documentation supplied with your smartphone if you need help.

 Familiarize yourself with your chosen hands-free system so that it is

prepared for iLane setup and use. For example, if using the iLane headset make sure it is fully charged; if using an in-vehicle Bluetooth wireless system or kit instead, make sure you can enable its pairing mode.

back to the sender as soon as possible? (NOTE: If “Yes”, this email is sent immediately)

 Should I ask (Contact name) to call you?

(NOTE: If “Yes”, this email is sent immediately)

(3) If you decide to compose a VoiceNote, begin speaking when

prompted. iLane automatically ends your reply with a timed audible cut-off or when you pause briefly and say “Good-bye”, whichever comes first. Or, simply end your reply with a click of the headset (or HFS button, if supported).

NOTES: 1) The maximum length of a VoiceNote depends on your smartphone’s operating system. See Specifications on page 55. 2) For best results, review your reply before sending – say Review Message to make sure your message is complete.

(4) If desired, say Record Again and repeat Step 3. When satisfied

with your VoiceNote, Send Message to send the email. If you change you mind and decide not to send it, say Cancel.

(5) The recipient of your email-with-VoiceNote will need an .mp3-

4.7 Calls

Phone calls have priority over all other iLane functions. If you are on a call, iLane will not interrupt or try to interpret your conversation as a voice command. Likewise, if you are listening to email or news when a call comes in, iLane will ring and interrupt to ask if you want to answer – the current message or article will be conveniently “bookmarked” so that you can return after the call.

AANNSSWWEERRIINNGG CCAALLLLSS

By default, iLane continuously monitors your phone and notifies you of each incoming call. iLane identifies the caller (if a contact) or number (if not a known contact), and asks if you would like to answer. Typical prompts may include:

In either case, say Accept (or Answer) to take the call, or No to ignore the call and direct the caller to your smartphone’s voice mail. iLane will also let you know if the caller disconnects. Alternatively, use your own HFS (such as your HFS) to manage incoming calls.

Note that, as with SMS messages, iLane recognizes a call only upon arrival. If you choose to ignore a call and the caller leaves a message, you can access that voice mail from your smartphone as usual. The message will not be found by iLane.

TO CALL BACK: To call back the sender of an email or SMS

message, say Call Back at any time during the message. If the sender is not a contact in your Address Book, iLane will offer Reply (email) instead.

NOTES: 1) Placing a call requires that iLane be in “active” mode. 2) If you have multiple contacts with the same name, iLane will request confirmation of the full name. 3) If a contact has multiple phone numbers, such as work, home and mobile, iLane will ask which number to use.

CCAANNCCEELLIINNGG AA CCAALLLL

4.9 Pausing iLane

There are a number of reasons why you may wish to temporarily interrupt iLane, and several ways to do it. For example, you may need to suddenly concentrate on changing traffic patterns or poor road conditions. Or perhaps you simply want to briefly “pause” iLane during an email message so that you can efficiently answer a call or check your calendar without losing your place. This flexibility can help ensure that your iLane sessions are as safe and productive as possible.

To continue reading your bookmarked (paused) news article, say Continue News. iLane will return to that news article and begin reading at its headline. Say Read to listen to the article.

NOTE: Rather than returning to the precise point of interruption, iLane instead refreshes your memory by starting at the beginning of the paused message or news article.

4.10 Canceling An Action

If you change your mind, say Cancel to stop iLane from completing common actions or commands such as:

 Reply, Forward, or Delete  Compose Message  Provide Feedback  Review or Record Again  Call Back  Call By Name / Call By Number  Check Weather  Check News

You can stop outgoing email/call actions at virtually any point prior to the final command to send the message or place the call.

NOTE: You can also say Nobody to cancel a Forward, Compose Message, or Call By Name task when iLane asks “Who would you like to…?”.

Note that if you have selected the Restore Factory Defaults option, you must then hold

for 3 seconds to continue with the reset and clear iLane’s memory. This special long keypress is a safeguard to help prevent accidental system resets as you explore the System Menu, and helps ensure all system information currently stored in iLane’s memory remains intact until you are certain you want to delete it.

Restoring factory defaults also deletes your iLane pairings – so iLane can no longer communicate with your smartphone or handsfree system. See 5.2, Restoring Factory Defaults (page 50) for details.

By default during the final stage of iLane setup, your current smartphone Contacts are copied (via iLane) to available memory on your hand-free system (HFS). This “sync” process ensures thatyou retain the option of using your HFS phonebook for placing calls during an iLane session if you wish.

However, if you find this data transfer too time-consuming and/or too frequent (with some hands-free systems repeating the sync at every subsequent iLane startup), you may prefer to prevent this process and instead use only iLane for call management. At the “To disable transferring your Contacts….” option in the System Menu, follow the prompt to disable the transfer. At next power-up, iLane will not copy your smartphone Contacts to your HFS – you must instead use iLane for calling these Contacts.

NOTES: 1) A transfer-contacts-to-HFS change applies only at the next iLane power-up. 2) This setting does not affect use of your HFS at other times, nor is it applicable if you are using the iLane headset option.

5.1 “Expert” Prompting Mode

As you become familiar with iLane’s capabilities and find yourself completing tasks quickly and with confidence, you may want to switch from Standard (default) to Expert prompting mode. Expert mode reduces the extent of iLane’s prompting and spoken help – iLane will simply speak less so that you can work more independently and with minimal distraction.

5.2 Adjusting Microphone Sensitivity

iLane’s ability to properly recognize your voice commands can be optimized with correct adjustment of microphone sensitivity. Finetuning this System Menu option can increase or decrease iLane’s responsiveness within your vehicle, keeping in mind that your chosen hands-free system is also a contributing factor.

iLane 7100 User’s Guide

TOOLS and ADVANCED OPTIONS

If you are experiencing consistently unreliable and/or inaccurate iLane response, adjust your microphone sensitivity as follows:

 If iLane doesn’t seem to hear you, adjust UP  If iLane misinterprets background sounds as voice commands,

adjust DOWN.

For best results, try a single incremental adjustment and check performance with voice commands on your next trip. Re-adjust as necessary until iLane is both reliably detecting your voice commands and ignoring sounds or other speech.

5.3 Restoring Factory Defaults

In rare cases, such as if one or both of your iLane system Bluetooth pairings appear to be lost or malfunctioning, you may wish to reset the iLane device. A reset clears device memory, which removes pairing information and restores all original factory defaults (such as System Menu settings).

After a reset, iLane can longer communicate with either your smartphone or your hands-free system. Before restoring these links, also clear your smartphone and HFS of all their pairing information. Then, with all three components “blank”, create both new pairings to iLane by following the step-by-step instructions provided in the Quick Start and/or in 3.1, iLane Setup Procedure in this guide (see page 24).

VOICE COMMANDS

SECTION

This section defines voice commands currently recognized by iLane.

iLane recognizes and responds to the spoken words listed in Figure

4. For best results with most hands-free systems, speak these commands naturally and at a typical conversational volume level. iLane will follow up with a question or an option if further clarification is required.

TIP: For convenience in your vehicle, basic iLane Voice Commands are

also duplicated in the iLane Quick Start.

GGEENNEERRAALL GGUUIIDDEELLIINNEESS

 Remember that voice commands are disabled at start-up. Press

(or use your HFS) to manually cancel this silent “Good-Bye” mode and enable voice commands.

 Speak naturally without raising your voice or slowing your speech.

For best results when interrupting iLane, wait for a natural break in iLane’s speech.

 For reminders of voice commands during use, say Options.  To escape and stop most tasks, say Cancel. See list on page 46.  iLane’s response and performance can vary depending on your

hands-free system. Work with settings on your HFS and in iLane’ System Menu to optimize iLane for your vehicle environment.

 Silence iLane at any time with Quiet, Good-bye or Do Not Disturb.  To pause reading mid-message or mid-article and insert a bookmark

for recalling later in your iLane session, interrupt iLane with Quiet or any other top-level command. Such “bookmarking” commands are identified with a “

” on page 62. To return to the paused

message or article, say Continue Messages or Continue News.

 Do not hesitate to send questions and comments directly to the

iLane technical support team. Simply say Provide Feedback. Or say Call By Name and respond with iLane Support when prompted.
