Introduction

The SJA9190 lets you know who’s calling by announcing the Caller’s telephone number when the phone rings, without interrupting what you’re doing. If the Caller’s telephone number is not available, the unit will announce “Number Unknown.” If the Caller has blocked their telephone number, the unit will announce “Number Blocked.”

other device at your option.

Screening telephone calls while you’re at home

The talking Caller ID works with standard (number-only) and deluxe (name and number) Caller ID service available from your local telephone company. The unit identifies calls by announcing the Caller’s ten-digit telephone number between the first and second ring. If the call is coming from a number that has been blocked, it will announce “Number Blocked.” If the telephone number is unidentified, the unit will announce “Number Unknown.” If the phone is still ringing, and you didn’t hear the number being announced, just press the big key and it will repeat the number.

Audibly Reviewing Calls

The unit stores the last ten calls in memory for audible review. This is convenient for finding out who called while you were out. There are two ways to perform audible call review:

1. Press the big key to hear the date, time, and telephone number of the most recent call in the log. Subsequent pressing and releasing this key will go further back into the call log and announce information about earlier

Operation

calls. Pressing the big key while an announcement is in process pre-empts the current announcement and goes to the next call. After the final call is announced, the unit beeps. Continued pressing will start back at the top of the log again.

2. Hold down the big key for 2-seconds, and it will announce the number of new calls followed by the date, time, and telephone number of every new call in the log. After the final call is announced, the unit beeps.

Language Selection

The unit speaks in English and Spanish. To change the selected language, hold down the small key and momentarily press and release the big key. The unit announces “January” in the selected language.

Erasing Calls

To erase the calls in the audible call log, hold down the big key for 4-seconds. The unit beeps confirming the calls have been erased.

Volume Control

There are four volume settings - low, medium, high, and off. To change the volume, press and release the small key very quickly. You may find it helpful to press the key using the eraser-

end of a pencil. The key is designed so that it is difficult to change the setting by accident. The unit beeps reflecting the new volume setting. It beeps twice to indicate the volume is turned OFF. If the volume is set to OFF, incoming calls will not be announced. Calls reviewed while the
