PRiO Getting Started 5
Introduction
Thank you for choosing a PRC product. Your PRiO® device combines the power of LAMP Words for Life®
and the familiarity of the iPad® with an amplified, protective case. The rubber boot and plastic shell
provide protection while the amplifier delivers high quality audio output. The handle provides optimal
portability. Depending on the funding source, your PRiO device shipped either dedicated or integrated.
If you have a dedicated device:
A dedicated PRiO device is set up for communication only. Your funding source requires that your device
be locked when shipped. Guided Access® is turned on, other restrictions are in place, and you will not have
access to apps or be able to connect to the Internet.
Integrated Feature Pack: If you wish to enable additional features, you can purchase an integrated
feature pack to unlock your device. Please call the PRC Sales Department at 1-800-262-1933 or email
[email protected].
If you have an integrated device:
An integrated PRiO device has access to the LAMP Words for Life app for communication as well as the rest
of the iPad and Internet. If you would like to set up the device for communication only, use Guided Access.
This Getting Started Guide
This Getting Started covers operations for both dedicated and integrated PRiO devices. Directions that
only apply to integrated or dedicated devices are labeled.

Safety Information
Emergencies
This device is not intended to be an emergency call device or sole communication aid.
Cleaning, Maintaining, and Servicing
Do not attempt to service or maintain the device while it is in use. Disconnect the charger and turn off the device before cleaning or
disinfecting the device.
If your device or an accessory is damaged, call Service for assistance. Do not attempt to make repairs yourself.
Accessories
Do not use accessories, detachable parts, or materials not described in this manual.
Do not use accessories, detachable parts, or materials in any other way than described in this manual.
Mounting and Positioning
Any mounts used, including switch mounts, should be fitted by a qualified person. Failure to install the mounting system according
to the manufacturer's instructions may result in an injury to the user. Be certain that the user’s view is not obstructed by the
mounting.
Analysis of positioning by a qualified person is required to prevent repetitive stress injuries to the user.
Use your device and phone safely while texting. Do not text while performing another task or activity. See the phone manufacturer's
manual for safe mounting and placement.
Vision and Hearing
The communication partner should ensure that the user takes frequent breaks to avoid eye strain.
Consult your vision care provider about device positioning considerations for the user.
Excessive volume or sound pressure level when using earphones or headphones can cause hearing loss over extended periods of
time. Set the volume at a low level and increase it only enough that you can hear comfortably.
Ports and Connectors
Keep the device ports and mating cable connectors clean so that they make the best possible contact and are able to maximize the
service life of your device. Dirty cable connectors will transfer the contaminate to the mating connector on the device and may
degrade performance.
If your device has been exposed to water, the USB port must be completely dry before a USB cable is inserted into it. To remove
moisture from the USB port, shake the device several times with the USB port facing downward, and then use a microfiber cloth to
wipe the device dry. You should then check the USB port area again. If moisture is still visible in the USB port, repeat the shaking and
drying procedure.
Do not try to force a connector into a port. Be sure you are inserting the connector into the correct port and that you have the
connector turned so that it matches the orientation of the port.
Small Parts, Cords, Cables, and Straps
Cords, cables, and straps are potential entanglement or strangulation hazards. Please consider this prior to placing these items with
device users.
On a regular basis, visually inspect cables, cords, and connectors for damage or wear, especially where they are subject to extra
stress. Cables and cords can become frayed or damaged from heavy use or with age. For example, a frayed cable could cause a
battery charger/power adapter to short-circuit, posing a hazard to the user. If any cable, cord, or connector is damaged or worn, call
Service for a replacement.
When unplugging a cable or cord, grasp the connector instead of the cable or cord itself to avoid damage or wear.
Always use cables, whether for charging or transferring vocabulary files, according to the instructions in this manual.
Small parts could present a choking or other hazard.
If the stand is removed, it becomes a potential hazard for choking or for poking the eye. Store it in a safe location.
The user could pinch a finger when closing the stand.
The USB flash drive could be a choking hazard. Store it in a safe location when not in use.
The stylus is a potential hazard for poking an eye.

PRiO Getting Started 7
Screen
Do not use the device if the screen is cracked or broken.
Do not remove the screen protector from the device. The screen protector protects the device user from any glass shards in case of
screen breakage.
Interference
When operating this device in a medical environment, do not use with any product that is not medically approved. Follow all rules
for appropriate wireless device use.
Do not use this device close to sources of RF/RFID radiation or you may encounter interference. Move away, if possible, from the
source of the interference.
Water
If your device has been exposed to water, the USB port must be completely dry before a USB cable is inserted into it. To remove
moisture from the USB port, shake the device several times with the USB port facing downward, and then use a microfiber cloth to
wipe the device dry. You should then check the USB port area again. If moisture is still visible in the USB port, repeat the shaking and
drying procedure.
Your device is intended for use in normal communication situations. It is not waterproof, so use extreme caution when using it
around water. As with most electronic devices, you should never use the device when you are actually in the water (for example, a
pool or bath).
Batteries and Charging
Use only the battery charger provided with your device.
Amplifier batteries and tablet batteries are not replaceable by the customer.
Do not place the device where it is difficult to operate or difficult to disconnect from the charger.
Always follow the instructions in this manual when charging your device.
Do not insert any object into the charging port. This can result in damage to the port.
To avoid electric shock and damage to your device, do not charge the device while it is wet or in an area where it could get wet. Do
not handle the device, charger, or cords with wet hands.
Locate the device in a safe, dry location while charging. Do not charge the device outdoors.
Keep the charger away from water and do not allow water or any other liquid to be spilled on it.
If the charger or charger cord is damaged, call Service for a replacement.
Heat
Do not place the device in an appliance such as a microwave or oven, near an open flame, or on or near a source of heat such as a
stove or heater.
Do not leave the device in a hot vehicle for a prolonged period.
Oxygen-Rich Environment
Do not take the device into an oxygen-rich environment (operating room, oxygen tent, etc.).
Touching the Surface
While the device is charging, touching the surface of the device with broken skin may aggravate a wound.
While the device is charging, infants or high-risk groups should not touch the surface of the device if there is a chance of burning the skin.
Disposing of the Device
If you dispose of your device, please dispose of it in accordance with your local, state, and/or country electronic recycling laws.
Implantable Medical Devices
A minimum separation of six (6) inches should be maintained between a handheld wireless mobile device and an implantable medical device, such
as a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid potential interference with the medical device. Persons who have such devices:
•Should ALWAYS keep the mobile device a minimum of six (6) inches from their implantable medical device
•Should not carry the mobile device in a breast pocket
•Should move the mobile device away from themselves immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is taking place
•Should read and follow the directions from the manufacturer of the implantable medical device. If you have any questions about
using your wireless mobile device with an implantable medical device, consult your health care provider.

Working with Vocabulary Files
LAMP Words for Life provides a variety of pages that have different button layouts. Each set of pages, or
vocabulary set, is called a vocabulary file. LAMP Words for Life-provided vocabulary files have locks in
front of them indicating they cannot be deleted.
Personalizing a Vocabulary File
Although there are many words already pre-programmed in the vocabulary file, most individuals need
to add words to the system. It is best to know how the words are organized before you start adding
vocabulary, so you know where to put them. A variety of training is available to learn about how words
are organized in LAMP Words for Life. Please visit the Education section of the PRC website:
https://www.prentrom.com/education/education_overview or https://aacapps.com/lamp/support
