1 Introduction
This documentation are made for Picomeds PicoPhone loudspeaking IR-controlled analog
telephone, which is a part of Picomeds environmental system. It does not have any telephone
receiver, only loudspeaking function. An external loudspeaker and/or microphone can be
connected. It is controlled by a remote controller which transmits infrared (IR) signals. One
can use Picomeds IR-remote controllers, or it is possible to let the device be controlled by a
foreign IR-remote controller. There is a built-in IR-receiver, and in addition it is possible to
connect two external IR-sensors. PicoPhone is designed for indoor use. Picomeds
loudspeaking phones can be delivered in different variants. These are:
Picolo – doorphone with one or two outdoor devices.
PicoPhone – analog telephone.
PicoCombi – dual purpose doorphone and analog telephone.
It is possible to record speech into it, and the recorded speech are divided into two types:
Auditive feedback which is ment to be used as guidance for the user about which
functions are choosen. For example as a information about which digits pressed in a
telephone number.
Voice messages which can be played back to the one you are speaking with in the
telephone.
Switches can be connected to the loudspeaking products to control the main functions, in
addition to external speaker and microphone. A built-in automatic answering function can be
activated if required.
There is a number of programmable settings to make. I.e the number of ringing signals before
the automatic answering function triggers, which IR-format to be the active one, trainable IR
and so on.
2 Getting started
The following parts are included when the product is delivered:
Device.
Powersupply for connection to AC power outlet.

3 User manual
PicoPhone can operate in different modes. These are:
Ordinary use.
Programming – plain. Programming made only by use of an IR-remote controller. This
mode shall be used to save telephone numbers in the telephone book.
Programming – advanced. Gives access to advanced settings only. Ment to be used by
technicians when installing the device.
Programming – IR-training. Let the device teach IR-signals from foreign IR-remote
controllers. Make it possible to control it with other IR-remote controllers.
In chapter 3.4.11 an overview of the main functions are given on one page. The page is ment
as a quick guide for the user.
3.1 Incoming call
PicoPhone gives a ringing signal to indicate an incoming call. You may hook off by the use of
the remote controller, key on device, external switch or by the help of the automatic
answering function if this is enabled. When the automatic answering function activates, there
will be given a warning-tune, and then the PicoPhone hooks off after a predefined number of
ringing signals (the number can be changed in advanced programming mode).
3.2 Outgoing call
By the help of a remote controller or external switches it is possible to make a phone call.
PicoPhone will wait for the dialling tone before the telephone number are transmitted. If the
dialling tone not is possible to detect for the device, the number will be transmitted after a
predefined time. All numbers will be transmitted as DTMF.
PicoPhone can be programmed with a fixed prefix (i.e ”0”) to be used in combination with a
telephone switch board. If a prefix is enabled, the device will wait for dialling tone after the
prefix number is transmitted. When the telephone book is used, the device will transmit the
prefix automatically.
3.3 Telephone conversation
The telephone line will be active until:
The user disconnects (”hook on”) with the remote controller, key on PicoPhone, or an
external switch.
The person you are talking to, hooks on.
If the conversation is started by the automatic answering function, it will be ended when
the predefined conversation time (programmable in advanced programming mode)
expires. In this case it will be given 4 warning tones before disconnection.

Volume adjustments for the telephone function on PicoPhone may be adjusted with the
remote controller in 5 steps. If the volume has been changed, the new value is stored and used
for later telephone conversations. When pressing ”F” on remote controller the volume will
increase and it will be indicated by one short ”beep” for each press. When changing from
volume 4 to 5 (maximum) it will be indicated by a long ”beep”. The next keypress on ”F” will
change the volume to 1 (minimum).
3.4.4 Auditive feedback
The following words can be recorded :
"0-9", "*", "#", "Empty", "Saved", "Error" and "Pause".
These words may be used as an auditive feedback in ordinary use, and while programming the
device. If the user dont have any need for this auditive feedback it can be disabled (in
advanced programming mode). Auditive feedback in advanced programming mode can not be
disabled.
If auditive feedback is enabled, it will be heard in the following situations:
When someone tries to transmit an unprogrammed telephone book number it will say
”empty”.
When someone transmits a telephone book number it will say the position of the number
in the telephone book.
When the keys for 0-9, *, # are pressed and the telephone line not is activated (”C”), every
digit will be said. If the keys are pressed faster than the digits are presented, the feedback
will not be stopped. It will be stopped when the keys ”E” or ”C” are pressed.
3.4.5 Voice message
Three different voice messages with a duration up to 5 seconds may be recorded. 1, 2 or all 3
may be assigned to 1 or 2 different situations in a free order. When the situation becomes real,
the message will be spoken automatically. The situtations are:
1. Answering incoming telephone conversation.
Initiated by the user or automatic answering function.
2. End telephone conversation.
Initiated by the user or timeout when using automatic answering function.
Example:
You may for instance record the following: ”Hi, this is John. I am not able to talk, but I
understand what you say” as message number 1 (this is done in advanced programming
mode). So, let message number 1 be ”copied” to situation 1 (also done in advanced
programming mode). When John answer the phone (=situation number 1 in the list above)
message number 1 will be automatically played back in the beginning of the conversation.
3.4.6 Automatic answering function
The automatic answering function can be turned on and off with an IR-remote controller or
with the ”automatic answering function key” on PicoPhone. A light indicator will illuminate
when the function is enabled. Please refer to chapter 3.1 and 3.3 for more information.
Be aware of the following: if this function is enabled, it is possible to call to the user
and listen to what happens in the room. If the device is used by a disabled person

PicoPhone loudspeaking analog telephone Page 9.
without the capability to disable the function or to control the device him/herself,
there can be a risk of involuntary monitoring of the person.
3.4.7 Telephone book
The telephone book in PicoPhone are able to:
Redial the last used telephone number up to 50 digits.
Store 50 telephonenumbers with up to 50 digits each.
Telephone book numbers 1-3 can be activated by external keys 1-3.
Telephone book numbers 1-9 can be activated by one keypress on the remote
controller by pressing one of the keys 1-9.
The numbers in the telephone book will not deleted if a power failure situation occur. Redial
memory will be deleted if a power failure situation occur. In advanced programming mode a
prefix can be activated. This means that there is no need to save the prefix in all numbers in
the telephone book if it is activated once in advanced programming mode. A pause (”F”) can
be a part of a number in the telephone book. PicoPhone will wait a predefined time before the
numbertransmitting continues if ”F” is a part of the telephone number.
3.4.8 Tone generating
PicoPhone generate tones as a responce to user inputs. Generated tones will occur when:
Keypress on device (also if key has no action in actual setting) except from when DTMF
are transmitted or when recorded speech are played back.
When a timeout occur after a ”B” or ”C” sequence in ordinary use.
When entering a programming mode.
When hook on is automatically executed.
3.4.9 Power failure
If a power failure come into being PicoPhone will go back to standby when the power come
back, without any operations on it. It will be disconnected from the telephone line and the
automatically answering function will have the same status as before the power failure. It will
not be possible to operate the equipment when there is a power failure or the power supply is
disconnected. Telephone numbers stored in the telephone book and all other settings will be

4 Programming
PicoPhone may be programmed in different ways.
Programming – plain: Save and edit telephone numbers in telephone book.
Programming – advanced: Adjustments ment to be performed by a technician.
Programming – IR-training: Copy and ”learn” foreign IR-signals.
Programming – default/recycling: Restore default settings.
Observe that:
When installing a PicoPhone you should as a first job enter advanced programming
mode and record speech to the auditive feedback (point 31 in the list). This should be
done because this feedback will be a very good help in programming mode.
In programming mode the device will not respond on telephone call.
The device will leave programming mode if no keys are pressed within 60 seconds.
If auditive feedback is needed in ordinary use, it has to be enabled (point 4 in the list).
Specific for plain and advanced programming mode:
PicoPhone leaves programming mode if any keys on device is pressed.
The ”D” key can be pressed everywhere in the programming mode. When a ”D” is
pressed at the end of a programming sequence it means ”store value”. If ”D” is pressed in
the middle of a sequence the sequence can start from the beginning again, without storing
any values.
The ”E” key can be pressed everywhere in the programming mode to leave the mode.
Invalid keystrokes will be indicated with the auditive feedback ”error”, and the sequence
are ready to start from the beginning. This is one situation where it is important to have
done the auditive feedback recordings in point 31 in advanced programming mode.
4.1 Getting started
When installing a PicoPhone you should as a first job enter advanced programming
mode and record speech to the auditive feedback (point 31 in the list). This should be
done because this feedback will be a very good help in programming mode.
First of all; decide which type of programming mode should be entered.
Enter programming mode as described in the actual chapter.
An IR-remote controller has to be present to perform plain and advanced programming.
As a default value, the device responds to IR-format New Assistant user code 5 (NA5).
If no remote controller with NA5 is present, an other remote controller can be used. In this
situation the device has to learn the IR-signals. Execute the IR-training process in chapter
4.4 first.
4.2 Programming – plain
In this mode it is possible to store, edit and delete telephone numbers in the telephone book.
Auditive feedback is indicated with italic letters.
To enter this mode do as the following text says:
1. Press ”0 – F – 0” on remote controller when device is in standby mode.
2. When entering programming mode, it will be indicated by a slow flashing light indicator
for the automatic answering function.
01-50 <Existing number <telephone number> D Saved Telephonenumber

PicoPhone loudspeaking analog telephone Page 12.
>/ Empty Pressed numbers will be stored.
01-50 <Existing number
>/ Empty DSaved Telephonenumber
will be deleted.
When a telephone book number is given, the stored telephone number will be played back
digit by digit. If no number is stored, the word ”empty” will be played back.
When a number is entered, all digits will be played back one for one. If the keystrokes are
faster than the speech, the digits will be queued and played back one for one. The
playback will be interrupted by key ”D” (store) or ”E” (exit programming mode).
If more than 50 digits are entered, all digits after the 50th will be ignored. The ignored
digits will neither be played back.
The telephone numbers may contain the following:
Digit/letter Belonging playback Function
0-9 0-9 DTMF 0-9
A*DTMF *
B#DTMF #
CEmpty ”Clear”. Deleting all digits. Wait for new digits.
FPause Stores a pause with the same lengt as for the one
programmed as a part of a prefix (done in
advanced programming mode).
4.3 Programming – advanced
It is ment that this mode shall be entered by technicians with a good insight in the product. It
is important that the technician choose the best settings so the user can make the most out of
the benefits of the product. Especially with the built in speech functions which are available.
When installing a PicoPhone you should as a first job enter advanced programming
mode and record speech to the auditive feedback (point 31 in the list). This should be
done because this feedback will be a very good help in programming mode.
Observe that:

B Go to next word in the sequence. If the last word is recorded,
("Pause") there will come 3 short ”beep” and the device are
ready to record the first word ("0") in the sequence again.
D Finish the sequence.
Start with "0", go on with ”1” and so on. ”Pause” is the last word.
Important!
When installing a PicoPhone you should as a first job enter advanced
programming mode and record speech to the auditive feedback (point 31 in
the list). This should be done because this feedback will be a very good help
in programming mode.
Remember to activate auditive feedback in point 04 if this shall be active in
ordinary use of the equipment.

These points does not have any effect for PicoPhone's functions.
4.4 Programming – IR-training
When entering this mode, then the PicoPhone automatically will activate the trained IR-
format, while the other IR-formats will remain unaltered. This means that it is possible to use
more than one remote controller to control the device. To enter IR-training mode, only keys
on the device shall be used. There is an additional ("hided") key on PicoPhone to be used. It is
placed between and a little bit above the two existing keys. In the text beneath it is refered to
as "hided" key.
1. Press and hold the automatic answering key. Light indicator changes as normal.
2. Press once on hided key.
3. Press twice on telephone key.
4. Press twice on hided key.
5. Release the automatic answering key. The automatic answering light indicator will start
double flashing with a pause to indicate that mode IR-training is entered. Channel number
is set to 0.
Maximum time for the points above is 8 seconds.
The word "0" (channelnumber is 0) will be played back. If there is no IR on the actual
channel, the device will also play back the word ”Empty”. The device is now ready to train the
channels 0-15. Observe that IR-training not can be done with IR-signals applied to the
external IR-sensors. The following 3 things can be done:
a) Train the device with an IR-remote controller. Point the remote controller against the IR-
receiver placed under the dark glass in the front of the device. The distance from the front
of the remote controller and the IR-glass on the device should be approximately 2-5 cm.
Press the key designated to the channel number which are active1. After the first
successful IR-training, the device will playback "Saved Beep". Then press the hided key
and repeat the IR-training once again with the same key. After the second successful IR-
training procedure on the channel the device playback "Saved Beep Beep". A double IR-
training is neccessary to manage IR-remote controllers which transmits different IR-
signals when executing repeated keystrokes on the same key.
b) Delete trained IR with a press on the automatic answering key. The device will playback
”Empty”.
c) Go to the following channel number with a keystroke on the hided key. The new channel-
number will be played back if it is among channel 0-11 (10 = * and 11 = #). The channels
12-15 will be indicated with a ”Beep”. If there isn’t any trained IR-signal on a channel, the
device will also play back the word ”Empty”. When passing the last channel (15) the
device will leave IR-training programming mode.
To delete all trained IR-signals, enter advanced programming mode and execute the
”deactivate and delete IR” command, or make a recycling to get the device back to default
settings. PicoPhone will leave IR-training on timeout.
4.5 Programming – back to default settings
There is a 2-stage process to execute to get the PicoPhone back to default settings. This
sequence is controlled by the keys on the device. Details about hided key: refer to chapter 4.4.
Step 1 restores all changeable parametres back to default settings.
1One should give a very short and concise keystroke.

PicoPhone loudspeaking analog telephone Page 16.
Step 2 is a continuation of step 1, and if executed, all recorded speech will be deleted
(words in auditive feedback and voice messages).
Do as following:
1. Press and hold the key for automatically answering function. Light indicator for function
will change as normal.
2. Press hided key once.
3. Press 3 times on telephone key.
4. Press 3 times on hided key.
5. Release the key for automatically answering function. Light indicator for function will
start triple flashing. You will hear ” Beep-Beep-Beep" as a confirmation for a correct
entered mode.
6. To start recycling: press the key for automatically answering function and restoring
process starts. If the key not is released at once, but pressed for 3 seconds, also step 2
(delete all recorded speech) will be executed. The speech deleting process lasts for 5
seconds. A long ”Beep” will sound when the process are finished.
Maximum time for the points 1-5 is 8 seconds. Maximum time between the points 5-6 is 8
seconds.
When restoring the values, the following are done:
Alle telephone numbers in the telephone book will be deleted.
Redial memory will be deleted.
Volume level will be set to value = 3.
Automatic answering function disabled.
Alle values which can be altered in advanced programming mode will be set to default.
Trained IR will be deleted.
