Tips for Using
CyberGenie
Practice speaking CyberGenie does not learn how to
listen to a user, but you may need to
adjust your speech when talking to
CyberGenie.
Background noise CyberGenie rejects most background
noise, but short, loud sounds can
interfere with its speech recognition.
The following can negatively affect
system performance:
• Jewelry rubbing on the phone.
• Surrounding noises (such as loud
television, sneezing, dog barking,
and so on).
• Proximity to transmitting devices
operating at 2.4 GHz, such as
wireless LANs, cordless phones and
video sending units.
• Proximity to interfering devices
such as microwave ovens.
In environments where background
noise poses a continuous problem, use
the keypad commands. (Once you
start using the keypad, speech
commands are no longer available for
the rest of that session.)
More is better The more information you give, the
easier it is for CyberGenie to
understand what you say. For
example, say Read the Previous
One instead of Previous to move to
an earlier message in the mail system.
Handset Quick Start.book Page 19 Friday, July 21, 2000 8:04 PM

Handset Quick Reference
20
Speak normally Pronounce words clearly as you would
during everyday conversation.
Whispering or shouting is difficult for
CyberGenie to understand.
Statements,
not questions
Phrase your commands as statements,
not questions. For example, if you
want to record a memo, say Record a
memo!, not Record a memo?
Yes and no When CyberGenie asks a question,
most often your response will be Yes
or No. If CyberGenie has trouble
understanding, try saying Yes,
please; Yep; No, thanks or Nope; or
press 1 on the handset for Yes or 2
for No.
Modes of Operation
Full function
mode
When the CG 2400 system is working
with an active PC, it is in full function
mode.
Stand-alone
mode
If the PC is off or the USB cable is
unplugged, the CG 2400 can run in
stand-alone mode, which lets you
place and receive external calls but
does not provide CyberGenie functions
or support handset-to-handset calls.
Handset Quick Start.book Page 20 Friday, July 21, 2000 8:04 PM

Handset Quick Reference

General Precautions
To avoid interference, do not place the DG
200 Handset near audio or video
equipment or microwave devices.
Avoid exposing the handset to direct
sunlight for long periods. Keep the handset
away from excessive heat and moisture.
It is illegal to have the handset switched on
when in an aircraft.
Do not use the handset in the vicinity of
refueling points, fuel depots, or chemical
plants, or when blasting operations are in
progress.
Medical electronic products (for example,
hearing aids and heart pacemakers) may
not be adequately shielded, and could be
affected. Please consult your doctor if in
doubt.
In the Event of Power Failure
This equipment is not designed for making
emergency calls when the power fails.
Alternative arrangements should be made
for accessing emergency services.
NOTE: The handset
does not function with
discharged batteries.
If there is a power failure and no backup
power source is available, all functions
through the PC, the base station, and the
handset, and communications with
CyberGenie, are lost. However, even
without power, you can still use the
external phone line by disconnecting the
CG 2400 system phone line from the wall
socket and reconnecting an analog phone.
