• Vocollect batteries should not be used by children.
• Vocollect shall not be held responsible for any damages caused by equipment malfunction when
used with non-Vocollect batteries.
• Vocollect shall not be held responsible for any damages caused by equipment malfunction when
using a non-Vocollect 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.
• Do not leave a battery connected to the charger for long periods of time. It may cause degradation
of battery performance, such as a shortening of battery life. It should be removed from the charger
and stored as recommended above.
• Power off your equipment when not in use.
Handling Used Batteries
• When shipping batteries, place tape or insulating material securely over the battery contacts to avoid

• Store batteries in a rugged receptacle and cover with a lid.
Cleaning Procedures for Vocollect Equipment
Vocollect products have a long service life if they are maintained properly. Proper care includes following
recommended cleaning practices and procedures.
While Vocollect 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 over time. Users may
begin to experience degraded product performance and diminished product life. For example:
• Dirt or corrosion that interferes with the proper seting of terminals in chargers may cause intermittent
charging and appear to be a battery problem.
• Wet 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 may contain a high concentration of chemicals that can cause
the membrane to weaken and tear.
When equipment is visibly retaining dirt from the workplace, Vocollect recommends that it be cleaned.
Introduction | 19
Cleaning Plastics
While Vocollect equipment is resistant to normal residue from the workplace environment, a long term build-up
of residue from the workplace may damage it and lead to degraded performance and diminished product life.
Caution: Use only a solution of 30% isopropyl alcohol and water to clean the hard plastics on
equipment. Other products have not been tested and may degrade the equipment.
Cleaning Hard Plastics
The hard plastics on headsets, devices, chargers, and batteries should be cleaned with a soft cloth that
is wet with a solution of 30% isopropyl alcohol and 70% 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.
No other cleaning solution or method is recommended. Other products may compromise the durability
and life of the equipment.
Cleaning Foam and Pliable Plastics
Headset foam parts (ear pads and headband pads) as well as flexible bands and non-foam padding may
be cleaned with a mild soap and water. The pads should be washed carefully so as not to tear them or
detach them from mountings.
The parts should be air dried. Use of a concentrated heat source such as a hairdryer or clothes dryer is
not recommended.
Pads that are excessively dirty, such as headset windscreens should be replaced.
Detailed Cleaning Instructions
See Cleaning Headsets for detailed steps.
Cleaning Contacts
While Vocollect equipment is resistant to normal residue from the workplace environment, a long term build-up
of residue from the workplace may damage it and lead to degraded performance and diminished product life.

Page 21
20 | Vocollect Hardware Documentation
Caution: Vocollect recommends using only a solution of 30% isopropyl alcohol and water to cleaning
equipment. Other products have not been tested and may degrade the equipment.
Flat contact areas on the device, such as the Talkman Connector (TCO), or flat contacts on the battery
and charger should be cleaned with the recommended 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.
Corrosion may be removed 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.
You can also use a three-row toothbrush style, general 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.
Battery contacts must never be bent or manipulated.
Contacts that are extremely corroded, bent, or missing should be repaired or replaced by an authorized
Vocollect Service Center.

Chapter 2
Talkman Devices and Headsets
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 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 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 and A500 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 Vocollect 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.
• Never remove the battery from a Talkman unless it has been properly powered off.
• Vocollect designed the Talkman to be worn on the right side of the body with the device's buttons on
the top (T5-series, T2-series, A500) or facing front (T1) and its connectors toward the operator’s back
(A500, T5-series, T2-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 Vocollect headsets to protect the equipment and ensure
optimum speech recognition performance.
• Vocollect recommends changing headset windscreens every 90 days to ensure the best performance.
Caution: Use only a solution of 30% isopropyl alcohol and water to clean the hard plastics on
equipment. Other products have not been tested and may degrade the equipment.

Turning a Talkman Device On
Before you turn on a device, make sure a headset and charged battery are properly connected to it.
1. Press the Play/Pause button on the device.
The LED indicator first turns solid red while the processor reboots. It then flashes red and green,
turns solid, blinks red, then turns solid green (A500, T5-series and T2-series) or the LED indicator
turns solid green (T1).
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.
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), unless it has been blinking red for several minutes. If a device is turned off when
its LED indicator is blinking red, 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.
Confidential: For informational use by Vocollect Resellers and customers only
Page 26
Talkman Devices and Headsets | 25
•
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
• 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. The LED
indicator should be either solid green or blinking green (A500, T5-series and T2-series) or solid green
(T1).
1. Press the Operator button.
The device says "Current operator is operator name. Select menu item."
2. Press the + button or — button until the device says, "Change operator."
3. Press the Operator button.
4. The device says, "Please wait" and retrieves a list of operators and teams. Wait for the device to say,
"Select team".
• If the device says "Current operator is (operator name). Change operator", skip to step 8.
5. Press the + button or — button to scroll through the list of operator teams until you hear the name
of a team to which you belong.
6. Press the operator button.
The device says, "Please wait" and retrieves a list of all operators who belong to the team that was
selected. The device then says, "Current operator is (operator name). Select new operator."
7. Press the + button or — button to scroll through the list of available operator names until you hear
your name.
• If you do not hear your name, press the yellow play/pause button to cancel this operation and start
over from step 2.

• When selecting a team in step 5, choose the "All Operators" team.
• Consult with your supervisor if you are not listed in the "All Operators" team.
8. Press the operator button.
The device says, "Loading operator" and loads your templates. Once it has loaded your templates,
the device says, "Current operator is (your operator name). Good night." The device then goes to sleep.
The next time you turn the device on, it will be ready to use.
Adjusting the Voice
Each Vocollect Talkman device uses Vocollect Voice software to provide instructions to the operator and
prompt them for responses.
The actual voice that speaks to the operator can be adjusted in several ways so that the operator can
hear and understand the information clearly.
• 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
Before making any changes to the voice: Make sure the device is on or sleeping. The LED indicator
should be either solid green or blinking green (A500, T5-series and T2-series) or solid green (T1).
Adjusting the Pitch
Make sure the device is on or sleeping. The LED indicator should be either solid green or blinking green

Vocollect Wireless Headsets
An operator uses a headset with a microphone to interact with a device by hearing and responding to
instructions. Based on the operator's responses, the device transmits data messages back to the host
computer.
The Vocollect®SRX-Series speech-recognition headsets feature industrial grade use of Bluetooth Wireless
Technology. These wireless headsets manage the quality of voice input/output, have no cables to connect,
and remain connected to a device up to ten meters away.
All Vocollect SRX-Series wireless headset features include:
• Bidirectional noise canceling microphones for optimal noise cancellation.
• Windscreen to reduce breathing and other background noises that can make it hard for the device to
understand what an operator is saying.
• Sealed components to prevent corrosion.
• Padded, lightweight headbands for increased comfort and personalized fit.
• Single ear cups that pivot vertically and horizontally and can be worn on either ear.
• Foam ear pads for quick and easy replacement.
• A rotating lever on the outside of the earpiece for moving the microphone up and down without causing
stress on the microphone boom.
• Repeatable microphone position; a groove catches the boom, placing it in the proper position when
the boom is swiveled down for operation.
The headsets and microphones used with the Vocollect Voice®system are delicate pieces of electronic
equipment. Proper care will ensure that they work well for a long time.
See Care and Use of Headsets and Microphones for more information.
The Bluetooth word mark and logos are owned by the Bluetooth SIG, Inc.
and any use of such marks by Vocollect is under license. Other trademarks

Vocollect SRX Wireless Headset
Figure 80: SRX Wireless Headset
The Vocollect®SRX speech-recognition headset features industrial grade use of Bluetooth Wireless
Technology. The SRX headset manages the quality of voice input/output in the headset itself, has no
cables to connect, and remains connected to a device at up to 10 meters away.
• Pairing modes on the headset can only be entered from the powered off state.
• It is best to pair in an area where you are at least three feet away from another Bluetooth device.
This helps ensure your headset does not accidentally pair with the wrong device.
• The SRX remembers its last pairing and will reconnect only with that device. It will not respond to
paging or inquiries from other devices until it is placed in pairing mode again.
• When it is not paired with a device, the SRX headset volume can only be adjusted using the buttons
on the headset.
• When the SRX headset is paired with a device, volume can be adjusted by pressing the Plus and
Minus buttons on the headset or device.
• The SRX headset remembers its last volume setting when powered off and back on, and across battery
removals and replacements.The last volume setting used while paired with a wearable computer is
saved with the operator's profile. This volume level will be restored to the SRX headset upon
reconnection. However, the headset volume may be different upon reconnection if the volume was
changed while it was not connected to a device, or if a different operator used the headset.
A padded Velcro®mobility strap fits across the back of the user's head to provide extra stability.

Charging the SRX Headset
Figure 81: SRX Wireless Headset High-Performance Battery
A fully depleted SRX Wireless Headset battery will be fully recharged in less than 4 hours.
Vocollect Wireless Headsets | 117
A fully charged SRX Wireless Headset battery has 3.7 volts. When the charge depletes to 3.3 volts, the
user will hear a spoken warning, "Headset battery is getting low. Change headset battery now." and the
warning will also be displayed in debug.
SRX Battery Electrical Specifications
• Cells: The high capacity battery pack uses two lithium ion cells.
• Nominal voltage = 3.7V
• Watt Hours = 7WHr
• Protection circuit characteristics: The pack contains a protection circuit that prevents over and under
voltage conditions on the cells and protects the pack from damage as a result of a short circuit between
the positive and negative terminals of the battery.
• The battery pack contains custom electronics that provide performance, temperature, and pack
identification to the device. This information is made available to voice management software.
• Battery Charging: The battery pack must be charged only in a Vocollect designated charger.
Charging SRX Wireless Headset Batteries
Important: Once an SRX battery is placed in the charger, it must remain in the charger for a
minimum of five seconds. This allows the charger sufficient time to analyze the state of the battery.
Removing the battery during this five second interval may cause the LED indicator on the charger
to display an incorrect battery status.
Important: Do not force the battery into the compartment. Doing so may result in damage to the
battery or the headset. If the battery does not snap easily into place, reposition the battery in the
compartment and try again.
Note:
• A battery is fully charged and can be removed from the charger when the left and right LED
indicators for that slot on the charger are green.
• If you insert a fully charged battery into a charger, the charger will analyze the battery's status
and then "top off" the battery's charge. During this process, the left LED indicator for that slot
Confidential: For informational use by Vocollect Resellers and customers only
Page 41
118 | Vocollect Hardware Documentation
on the charger is red. It may take several minutes for this process to complete, at which time
both LED indicators for that slot turn green.
1. Make sure the battery charger is powered. The green LED indicator on the end of the battery charger
should be lit.
2. Power off the headset by pressing and holding the Plus and Minus buttons on the earpiece for three
seconds and then remove the battery.
3. Hold the battery with its contacts to the bottom and the Vocollect logo facing toward you, and insert
it into an empty slot on the battery charger.
4. Press down on the battery until it snaps into place.
5. Make sure the battery is firmly in place and cannot be removed without pressing the battery release
button.
Inserting a Battery into the SRX Wireless Headset
Important: Do not force the battery into the compartment. Doing so may result in damage to the
battery or the headset. If the battery does not snap easily into place, reposition the battery in the
compartment and try again.
1. Make sure the battery is charged. A battery is fully charged and can be removed from the charger
when the left and right LED indicators for that slot on the charger are green.
2. Hold the headset with the battery compartment facing toward you.
3. Place the end of the battery with the contacts into the compartment first so that the contacts on the
bottom of the battery line up with the contacts in the compartment.
4. Press down on the battery until it snaps into place.
5. Make sure the battery is firmly in place and cannot be removed without pressing the battery release
button.
Removing a Battery from an SRX Wireless Headset
Important: Do not remove the battery until the LED indicator on the headset is off.
1. Power off the headset by pressing and holding the Plus and Minus buttons on the earpiece for three
seconds.
2. Hold the headset with the battery compartment facing toward you.
3. Pull the battery release button, located on the left side of the battery compartment, away from the
battery until the end of the battery pops up from the compartment.
4. Lift the battery out of the compartment.
Battery Warm-Up Time
If a battery has been used in a cold environment, it will not begin charging until it warms up sufficiently.
Approximate warm-up timeTemperature of battery use
6 minutes-4°C (24.8°F)

About Pairing Wireless Headsets
Pairing is the process in which two devices enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology create a secure
link in order to share information. The pairing process begins when the master device initiates an inquiry
to search for Bluetooth addresses or queries one, specific address.
Vocollect wireless headset pairings with Talkman or handheld devices are initiated by the device and
remain paired until broken by user action. Note that the pairing exists between the headset and device
hardware — the device operator ID is not tied to this pairing. If the operator moves to a different device,
the original headset/device pairing will not follow that operator.
Note: The automatic operator load feature is an exception to the hardware-only pairing. On supported
platforms, when an operator connects to a Vocollect wireless headset, that connection and operator
information are registered in VoiceConsole. The next time the operator connects to that headset;
his or her information will be loaded automatically. See the automatic operator load documentation
for your Vocollect Voice release.
Pairing versus Connecting
Pairing is not the same as connecting. Two Bluetooth devices, once paired, can connect and disconnect
many times. With a pairing in memory, the two devices can reconnect easily and will make repeated
attempts to establish a connection. In this way, a headset and device pairing allows for increased user
mobility.
For example, if the user takes the headset out of range of the paired device or powers it off, the device
will notice the connection loss, sever the connection, and then try to reconnect. The two remain paired
throughout this process.
SRX-Series Headset Pairing Methods
After an SRX-Series headset enters low or high power pairing mode, it is available to accept a pairing
initiated by a Talkman A500, Talkman T5-Series, or other Bluetooth-enabled device. These pairings can
be accomplished using a variety of methods:
Auto pairing:
On startup or on removal from a charger, the Talkman device immediately
searches for wireless headsets and initiates a pairing. Auto pairing is most
effective when users swap headsets and Talkman devices regularly.
Note: The first time an SRX headset accepts an auto pairing, the paired
device configures the headset to enter into pairing mode immediately on
all future startups.
Confidential: For informational use by Vocollect Resellers and customers only
Page 61
138 | Vocollect Hardware Documentation
Note: The SRX2 headset always powers up in pairing mode.
Manual pairing:
Screen-Based pairing:
Cross Pairing
Cross pairing is the result of a master device pairing with a headset or other device that is not the
intended slave. If a user cannot isolate his or her device and headset from others and a cross pairing
occurs, the user should break the existing pairing and retry the intended pairing.
Tip: Prevent unwanted cross pairing by isolating the device and headset from all other Bluetooth
devices any time that the device is performing an inquiry scan to find the headset.
The user determines when to pair a device and headset by pressing buttons
on the device. Manual pairing is effective in environments where the same
Talkman devices and headsets are always used together.
Important: The first pairing for an SRX headset that has never been
paired with a device must be a manual pairing. After this first time, the
headset can pair automatically.
Note: The SRX2 headset can perform either manual or auto pairing for
its first pairing.
The user pairs a specific device to a headset via the VoiceConsole interface.VoiceConsole pairing:
See Pairing a Headset by Screen-Based Pairing for details on pairing handheld
devices to a headset.
Pairing an SRX Headset
Once paired, an SRX headset and a device remember their association, even when powered off and on
again or after the device recharges. The SRX headset will only connect with that paired device.
Pairing the SRX headset with a new device erases the previous pairing from the headset's memory.
Note: If you are using an SRX2 headset, see Pairing an SRX2 Headset for details.
Auto Pairing with a Talkman Device
Prerequisites:
• The headset is powered off. You can only put an SRX Wireless Headset into low or high power pairing
mode from the powered-off state.
• There is no wired headset connected to the Talkman device.
• The Talkman device is in sleep mode — not in use running a task or voice application. Its green LED
indicator is flashing. If the LED is solid green, press the Play/Pause button.
• The Talkman device is Bluetooth ready with Bluetooth connection features enabled.
Important: An unpaired Talkman device will constantly search for wireless headsets while in auto
pairing mode. Do not leave an auto pair-enabled device unpaired and powered on because the search
will drain the battery.
1. Reboot the Talkman device or remove it from a charger. Either of these two actions will initiate a
scan for headsets by the device.
2. If the LED indicator on the headset is not flashing slowly, then it is not in pairing mode. To enter
pairing mode, press and hold the Plus (+) and Minus (-) buttons on the headset control panel for four
seconds.
Confidential: For informational use by Vocollect Resellers and customers only
Page 62
Vocollect Wireless Headsets | 139
The LED indicator on the headset flutters quickly, plauses, flashes three times quickly, then starts
flashing slowly. The headset remains in pairing mode for about one minute then reverts to idle mode.
3. Hold the headset and Talkman device so they are within six inches of each other but not touching.
The blue LED indicator on the Talkman device turns on, may flash a few times, and then remains
lit. After 20 to 30 seconds, the headset beeps three ascending tones and its LED indicator flashes less
rapidly. These indicators confirm that a pairing has completed.
4. Put on the headset. You will hear the headset repeat the serial number of the Talkman device to
which it is paired.
5. Verify that the number matches the serial number on the Talkman device.
If you need to attempt the pairing again, re-enter pairing mode by rebooting the headset.
6. Press the Play/Pause button on the Talkman device to confirm the number.
7. Press the Play/Pause button again to begin working.
Manually Pairing with a Talkman Device
Prerequisites:

Pairing a Headset by VoiceConsole Pairing
The VoiceConsole pairing method should only be used if the device/headset pairing will be performed
once and never changed. While manual pairing can also result in this permanent pairing, VoiceConsole
eliminates the device inquiry step and begins paging immediately for the Bluetooth address.
Prerequisites:
• The headset is powered off.
• The device is not in a charger, and there is no wired headset connected to it.
• The device is in sleep mode — not in use running an application.
• The device is Bluetooth ready with Bluetooth connection features enabled.

More about SRX-Series Pairing Modes
When a headset is in pairing mode it is ready to respond to any inquiries about its Bluetooth services.
The inquiring device uses this response to determine if it wants to pair with the headset. Because the
device is the initiator and the headset is the acceptor, a user facilitates the pairing process by putting
the headset into pairing mode before initiating the connection from the device.
SRX-Series headsets support two pairing modes.
•
Low Power Pairing Mode
Low power pairing mode is the default pairing mode for SRX-Series headsets. In this mode, a headset
will answer a Bluetooth device inquiry with a very low power response that transmits within a small
area (a few feet or so, depending on the receiving capabilities of the inquiring device).
Limiting the wireless transmission helps to avoid an unwanted cross pairing (a pairing with a Bluetooth
address other than the target) by forcing the headset to be in close proximity to the device.
•
High Power Pairing Mode
High power pairing mode allows the headset and device to be separated by more distance because
the headset’s response to inquiries is a wider transmission.
Vocollect recommends using high power pairing only if low power pairing fails. Use this mode with
care: While high power pairing mode makes it more likely that the connection will succeed, it also
increases the likelihood of cross pairing.
If the configuration parameter SrxAutoPairEnable is enabled and the configuration parameter
SrxHighPowerPairingDelaySeconds is set to 0, headsets will skip lower power pairing mode and
enter high power mode.
See Configuration Parameters for SRX-Series Headsets for more details.

Breaking a Pairing
There are several methods to break a pairing between an SRX-Series headset and a Bluetooth device.
From the Device:
A device can break a pairing with a wireless headset by initiating a new search
for headsets. The user can initiate the device query by holding down the Plus
(+) and Minus (-) buttons on the device. This method is useful if the user’s device
completes a cross pairing with the wrong headset; the user can initiate another
manual pairing.
From VoiceConsole:
From an SRX
Headset:
From an SRX2
Headset:
VoiceConsole displays all Bluetooth pairings including SRX-Series headsets,
Talkman devices, scanners, and printers. From the Edit Device page, you can
clear a pairing. You can do this with headsets as well.
The headset cannot break the pairing with the device. The user must break it
from the device by initiating another pairing.
The SRX2 headset user can break any pairing by pressing the Plus (+) and
Minus (-) buttons.
If the paired device is running Vocollect VoiceCatalyst 1.2 and newer, the SRX2
headset signals the device that the pairing is being broken. With older versions
of Vocollect Voice, the pairing breaks only after it times out.
Headset Pairing FAQ
Q: My device accidentally paired with a different headset, what can I do?
A: Perform a manual pairing; it will break the connection and initiate another inquiry. Note that the
user should have his or her headset in pairing mode before performing this step so that the device can
find the headset when it searches.
Confidential: For informational use by Vocollect Resellers and customers only
Page 68
Vocollect Wireless Headsets | 145
Q: The users at my site do not have assigned headsets and devices, so they could get a different
headset at every shift. Which pairing process would you recommend?
A: Auto pairing would probably be the easiest, as it will quickly establish connections and, by default,
does not maintain those pairings.
Q: The users at my site are assigned their own SRX-Series headsets, so I want to maintain
pairings and avoid pairing headsets at the start of every shift. What pairing process would
you recommend?
A: You could use manual pairing or auto pairing with the configuration parameter
SrxPersistAutomaticPairing set to "1" and SrxClearPairingInCharger set to "0" in order to maintain
pairings through device reboots and recharging.
Q: Our users are spending a lot of time pairing. What methods would you recommend to
reduce the time it takes to pair headsets?
A: There are a number of solutions:
• Use a pairing mode that is not as susceptible to cross pairing - avoid using auto pairing.
• Ensure that users are isolated by some distance when the devices perform inquiry searches.
• Use manual pairing, rather than auto pairing, so that the searches are done only at the user’s request.
• Use low power pairing.
• If your users do not share headsets and devices, use manual pairing so that the device and headset
remain paired.
• If your users share headsets and devices, use auto pairing so that pairing hardware at each shift will
complete faster.
Supervisor Audio with SRX-Series Headsets
Supervisor Audio is a feature that will allow a second party to listen to the conversation between a
Bluetooth-enabled Talkman device and a user with an SRX-Series headset.
A supervisor wears a wired headset connected to the operator's device, then walks behind the operator
who is wearing a wireless headset paired with the same device. The supervisor must keep the operator's
device within range of the operator's wireless headset.
Note: This feature is designed to work with Vocollect Talkman devices. It may function properly
with other devices depending on the available processing power.
Supervisor Audio offers two listening modes.
• Combined audio - the user’s microphone audio and the text-to-speech (TTS) audio are combined and
streamed out of the wired audio port
• Device audio only - the TTS audio only is streamed to the second party
Enabling Supervisor Audio
To enable this feature, set the SrxSupervisorAudioEnable configuration parameter to the desired
mode. See Configuration Parameters for SRX-Series Headsets for details.
• This feature should ONLY be used for debugging and when a user requires training or assistance.
This parameter should be turned off for optimal performance.
• Under normal operations, you cannot have a wired headset attached to the device when using an
SRX-Series headset. This parameter overrides this requirement when enabled.
• To avoid disconnecting the wireless headset, pair and connect the Talkman device to the headset
first, then connect a wired headset.

Care and Use of Headsets and Microphones
The headsets and microphones used with the Vocollect Voice system are delicate pieces of electronic
equipment. Proper care and use of these products will ensure that they work well for a long time.
Important: For maximum hygiene, Vocollect discourages sharing headsets among operators. The
design of the SRX2 Wireless Headset features an electronics module that can be removed from the
headband and windscreen. The electronics module can be shared among operators over multiple
shifts, providing some level of hygiene while potentially reducing costs.
Wearing Headsets: General Procedures
This describes the standard procedures for wearing Vocollect headsets. Note that special types of headsets
have somewhat different procedures.
Tip:
Always use pads and windscreens with Vocollect headsets to protect the equipment and ensure
optimum speech recognition performance.
1. Put the headset on and adjust the ear pad to fit snugly over your ear.
• For the Hard-Hat Headset, first insert the headset bracket into the left or right slot on the hardhat,
then put on the hardhat.
2. Swing the microphone into position with the rotating lever at the earpiece.
Important: Do not swivel the microphone boom by the flexible end. Use the rotating lever on
the outside of the earpiece.
3. Make final adjustments with the flexible boom so that the microphone is positioned at the corner of
your mouth.
A dot or the word "talk" on the microphone faces your mouth when the microphone is positioned
properly.
Make sure that there is a windscreen on the microphone. A windscreen improves performance.
4. Clip the headset wire to collar and belt. Let the wire fall down your back, and clip it to the belt near
the device.
If you use a device cover, Vocollect recommends that you clip the bottom clip directly onto the cover.
5. Connect or pair the headset to the device.
Adjusting Headsets for Comfort
Vocollect has designed the SR Series headsets based on data for most head shapes and sizes. Because
the headset is the most personal piece of voice equipment and must remain stable while workers perform
very physical tasks, users may benefit from these headset adjustment guidelines.
•
Placement of the "T-bar" pad: The SR-20, SR-21, and SR-30 models have pads called "t-bars"
opposite the speaker side of the headset. The t-bar should be positioned on a part of the head with
the least amount of muscle.
Confidential: For informational use by Vocollect Resellers and customers only
Page 72
Vocollect Wireless Headsets | 149
As an operator speaks, the muscle above the ear flexes. If the t-bar is placed on this muscle, the
headset applies pressure to the artery and nerves beneath it and can cause the operator some
discomfort. The operator can locate this muscle by moving his or her jaw and feeling the area above
the ear for movement. Some operators choose to alternate the headset position on either side of their
heads during their shifts.
Figure 103: T-bar Pad Placement on the Head
•
Headset pad options: Vocollect offers a variety of pads to meet the unique requirements of workers
and working conditions.
Standard foam pads: provide cushioning and soft surfaces wherever the headset comes in contact
with the operator. Available on all headsets.
Leatherette ear pads: have a faux leather exterior that is a more firm and supportive and more
moisture resistant than standard foam pads. Offered for all SR-20 through SR-40 models.
Memory foam pads: offer superior cushioning support and comfort. Available in earpads for the
SR-20/21 and in t-bar pads for the SR-20/21 and SR-30.
Removing Headsets
1. Disconnect the headset from the device.
Important: Do not pull on the headset's cord.
2. Unclip the headset cord from your shirt or jacket.
3. Carefully remove the headset from your head.
Note: For the Hard-Hat Headset, remove the hard hat. Press the release clip to remove the
headset unit from the hardhat bracket.
Cleaning Windscreens
Vocollect recommends that you change windscreens every 90 days for optimum speech recognition
performance.
Important: Soap, cleaning solutions, and vigorous washing will remove the protective coating on
the windscreen and decrease its effectiveness.
1. Remove the windscreen from the microphone.
2. Rinse the windscreen under warm water.
Confidential: For informational use by Vocollect Resellers and customers only
Page 73
150 | Vocollect Hardware Documentation
3. Squeeze out the excess water and let it air dry thoroughly.
Cleaning Headsets
Note: Commercial cleaning solvents are not recommended.
• Clean the plastic parts of the headsets with a soft cloth dampened with water. To clean and disinfect
the headset plastic, use a pre-moistened alcohol wipe.
• If the Talkman Connectors or plugs become contaminated, use a pre-moistened alcohol wipe to remove
dirt or residue.
• If the metal connection points on the Talkman's Connectors become discolored, use a soft pencil eraser
to clean them.
• Do not use unapproved liquids to clean the yellow, blue, and red Talkman Connectors (TCOs) and
any associated headset, scanner, or device plugs.
Cleaning the Headband Pad
Note: Vocollect strongly recommends that you leave the headband pad in place when cleaning it.
If you must remove the entire pad to clean it, use care to line up the headband pad with the topmost
part of the headband when you place it back on the headband.
• Leave the headband in place and simply wipe the headband with a soft cloth. If necessary, use a
pre-moistened alcohol wipe to clean and disinfect the unit.
