receiver, this display will provide real-time
text corresponding to the speech in the
vicinity of the Conversor microphone.

1. Unpack the device from its box
Locate and connect the charger, and allow a full
charge. Some devices will arrive already charged,
others will need several hours charge before first
use. The display will notify you the charge status,
when you connect the charger.
2. Switch ON
There are TWO button controls on the edge of the
device, one long button (volume) and one short
button (power).
Press and hold the power button until the display
lights up, then wait while the Android system
starts.
SWIPE your finger up across the centre display,
from the edge. This will “unlock” it. You won’t
usually have to do this if you keep the unit from
running out of charge.
3. Connect WiFi Internet
SWIPE up from the bottom of the
screen again, and press the SETTINGS icon
Choose Network & Internet
Select your local WiFi network from the list and
enter your access key.
Return to the home screen by touching the
centre dot at the bottom of the screen.

4. Live Transcribe
Touch the icon, at the bottom right corner of
the screen, to start the live TEXT display. The Live
Transcribe program will start immediately.
SCRIPT can decipher speech up to 3m away, if the
speech is loud and clear. If the speech is quiet or if
there is some background noise, the SCRIPT unit
will need to be closer to the speaking person.
You may find that the SCRIPT unit alone meets
your needs, and it can even decipher the TV sound,
if you have the TV quite loud.
For quieter voices, or those further away, you can
connect a Conversor HD remote microphone.
To EXIT the Live Transcribe program, touch the ‘X’
in the top left corner. You may then use the
computer for other functions like browsing the
internet, email etc.
5. Switch OFF
Use the little power button on the top right
corner of the display, to switch SCRIPT into
standby mode.
A short press will switch it ON again later.

The best setting for text recovery is 50% or more.
Press and hold the + button for a while to get
up to 100% then press the – button 2 or 3 times
for an ideal setting. Most settings will give
optimum results.
Check that the light is GREEN, indicating that the
Conversor is working properly and receiving its
microphone’s signal.
8. Connecting a Director HD microphone
Simply plug the Director HD microphone into the
SCRIPT headset socket. Turn SCRIPT OFF and ON
again, to make it recognize the connection.
A ‘beep’ tone can be heard.
9. Listening as well as TEXT
When you plug in the SCRIPT, the neck loop is
disconnected, so you will need a second Receiver
if you want to listen to the same HD Microphone
sound as the text displays.
A second microphone can be purchased from

Conversation paused, no network
connection
Check the WiFi and Internet settings. Perhaps you
have not connected to a WiFi network yet, or the
signal isn’t strong. Otherwise, please check the
internet connection by testing another device on
the WiFi.
HD Microphone won’t connect
Turn the SCRIPT OFF (with the power button)
and ON again, AFTER plugging IN the SCRIPT
Accessory lead. This will force the display to notice
the presence of the plug.
If you have changed any of the settings in the
Live Transcribe program, you might also need to
re-select the EXTERNAL microphone option in the
Audio menu. This setting is saved, so you won’t
have to set it every time you plug-in.
