Figure 5: Talkman T1
Talkman devices are voice-directed wearable computers. The Talkman
T1 has been specifically designed for light-duty, light-industrial
environments. Operators listen to instructions to perform tasks such as
warehouse order picking and factory floor inspection, and then speak
simple phrases to enter data. Talkman T1 device is a lighter, lower-cost
alternative to the T2-series, T5-series and A500 wearable computers. It
is intended for work in areas where you don't require an extremely rugged
device.
Talkman T5-series, T2-series and A500 devices attach to a customized
belt or shoulder harness equipped with a specially designed clip. Talkman
T1 devices are inserted into a customized holster with belt clip. This
leaves the operator's hands free to inspect items, pick products, or repair
defects. A 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.
A Talkman T5 VMT is a T5 device with a battery adapter 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 T5 device and
connected to the vehicle's power source.
• Talkman wearable computers 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.
• 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 wearable computer’s buttons on the top (T5-series,
T2-series, A500) or facing front (T1) and its connectors toward the
operator’s back (T5-series, T2-series, A500) 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.
• When the Talkman is not in use, it should be placed properly into a
charger.
• A “Proper Use and Care” document has been provided with your order
which contains important handling instructions for the T1’s headset,
the SL-4. If you do not have this document, users should contact their
Vocollect Regional Sales Manager Representative or Vocollect
Reseller for additional copies of this important document.
• Use an isopropyl alcohol (isopropanol) swab or soft cloth dampened
with isopropyl alcohol to clean metal connection points. If dirt or
residue cannot be removed with the alcohol swab or cloth, use a soft,
non-abrasive rubber eraser to clean metal connection points. 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.
Important:
• These instructions are for the T2-series, T5-series and A500
devices only.
• Use only isopropyl alcohol. Do not use any other cleaning
solvent.
• If using an eraser, it 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 connectors.

operator name
. Please keep quiet for a few seconds."
Turning a Talkman Wearable Computer Off
Press and hold the Play/Pause button on the device until the LED indicator turns red.
After a few seconds, it 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 wearable computer 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 a Wearable Computer
You can use a button control or forced reset to force a Talkman wearable computer to power off. In some
circumstances, the device powers off automatically. You can then reboot the device.
OpenTopic | Talkman®Devices | 25
Powering Off by Using the Play/Pause Button
This is the commonly used method of powering off. Press and hold the Play/Pause button for several seconds.
The wearable computer's LED indicator turns red, and the device stores any data that has not been transmitted.
The device says, "Powering off" when the process is complete, and the LED indicator turns off.
Powering Off Due to Inactivity
If the wearable computer'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 wearable computer's software detects that the current battery level is critically low, it powers off
automatically.
Booting a Wearable Computer After Powering Off
If a wearable computer 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 wearable computer 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 wearable computer without properly powering
it off first.
Caution: Perform a forced reset only as a last resort. If you reboot a wearable computer in this manner:
• the contents of its memory, including any data collected, will be lost
• the wearable computer starts over at the beginning of the task
• if you are in the process of retraining vocabulary, the wearable computer 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 wearable computer 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.
Adjusting the Voice's Pitch
