Introduction

The incorporation of a voice recognition unit (VB-44101) in a soft-key telephone (VB-D411DSV/VB-44224HK) allows you to choose between voice-activated dialling or normal keying in. You can simply speak names stored in the Phonebook to initiate a call to that destination. This manual describes how to use voice-activated dialling and how to record names, etc. See the Operation Instruction (Section 700) for details of normal key operations.

3. After confirming the Large LED (Message LED) lights Red, speak the name of the person you wish to call.

The system searches the Phonebook for the name closest that the one you have spoken, and Voice Guidance then asks "" Right?" to confirm the selection (). The telephone number is displayed on the 1st display.

Note: Speak the name using the same voice you used to store the name in the Phonebook. Using a different tone of voice may result in the name not being retrieved.

( ). The telephone number is displayed on the 1st display. If this is not the desired number, say "No" to repeat the search one more time. If there is no registration close to your pronunciation, an error tone will be issued. If, on the 3rd attempt, the correct number is not found, operation returns to "Call Who?". One possibility is that you are saying the name using a different tone or in a different manner from that originally used to record it in the Phonebook. Try saying the name again.

Notes: • If the search fails to find a candidate, Voice Guidance says

"No other choices." You may have spoken the name using a different tone or a different manner from that originally used to record it in the Phonebook, or a name that is not in the Phonebook. Replace the handset to cancel the call, check the contents of the Phonebook, then try to place the call again. At most three candidates are presented. They are the names in the Phonebook that are the closest the names you spoke. If ambient sounds, etc., result in the spoken words sounding totally different from any candidates in the Phonebook, the search is cancelled before the 3rd try.
