Getting Started
1. Switch on the unit via the mains after plugging in the power supply.
2. Choose the group of sounds you’d like to hear by pressing the Sound
Select button.
3. Now it’s ready to use, activate one of the buttons and the speaker
responds.
Using the “snap frame” windows
The windows illuminate when the button immediately below is pressed.
The snap frames allow A4 pictures to be held in place while the window is
illuminated and a sound reward played.
Recording your own Sounds
After switching the unit on and pairing to an IRiS Talker, please follow the
instructions below to record a message onto the Recordable Speaker. Messages
can be recorded over again and again. This is only relevant to Sound Groups 0
and 1. In this example we have paired the Soundboard to the IRiS Qube
1. Decide which window position on the Soundboard you want to record
your message / sound to.
2. Select Sound Group 0 or 1 and Press the “Record” button – the display
flashes “r” to indicate Recording Mode for a few minutes until you
continue the next step.
3. Activate the button below the window.
4. The unit will now begin recording – make the sound you want to
record. Once the sound has been recorded activate the button below
the window once again to stop the recording. This may take a little
practice to get right.
5. Activate the button below the window you have just recorded to so you
can listen to the sound you have just recorded.
6. Continue to record onto the other window positions by repeating the
above.
Please note a single bar is displayed if no sound is available for playback.
Cleaning and Maintenance
The unit should be cleaned with a damp soft cloth. A non abrasive cleaning agent
may be used for stubborn stains. Ensure no liquid enters the unit.
