FOREWORD
The Voice Activated Dial i n g feature is based on voicedependent voice recognition. If appropriate practices are
adopted, the accuracy of thi s meth od can be made extreme ly
close to perfect. The guidelines presented in this manual will
assist you in attaining optimal results.
ABOUT VOICE ACTIVATED DIALING
Your telephone set contains the Voice Dialing Card which
supports up to 56 telephone numbers, each one being up to
32 digits in length, which can be dialed automati cally by voice
command.
The programming process is basically a training session
whereby you dial the desired string of digits and then say the
name you want associated with that string. When you repeat
the name for verification, the card stores the information
received on a memory chip.
To dial the number stored, you simply press the allocated
Voice Dial button and say the name. You determine whether
your Voice Activated Dialing is done via your handset,
speakerphone or using both methods, depending on your
personal preference.
User friendly voice prompts and screen displa ys assist you in
the training process.
BEFORE YOU START
Before initiating the training session itself, there are ce rtain
guidelines which should b e fo llowed to attain optimal results.
They are included in the following list of Do’s and Don’ts.
Voice Dialing User Guide 2
Do 1. Mark the button directly above the CANCEL
button on the lower right-hand corner of your
set as “Voice Dial”
2. Make sure the environment is relatively quiet
during the training session and during Voice
Activated Dialing. A noisy environment will
give poor results. The steady hum of an air
conditioner or f an, for example, is okay. Loud
conversation or music is not.
3. You have the option of training and using the
Voice Activated Dialing feature via your telephone handset, via the set’s built-in microphone or using both methods. In a relatively
noisy environment, the handset (or headset)
method is recommended.
4. Speak clearly, in your natural voice.
5. If you want to include a number of similar
sounding names (e.g. Harry, Barry and Larry),
add some variation (For example: add the last
name or use a nickname) to ensure accurate
detection during Voice Activated Dialing
Don’t 1. When you use the station’s built-in micro-
phone, do not move closer when you speak
(Recommended distance: 1-3 ft.). Remain in
your natural working position.
2. When using Voice Activated Dialing, do not
speak the moment you press the button. Wait
until after the beep is heard.
3. Do not attempt to record “nam es” that ar e
excessively long (e.g. “John Smith’s number
at home”).
4. Do not attempt to use Voice Activated Dialing
with a different method than you selected at
the start.
