RECORDING UNIQUE LOW
BATTERY MESSAGES
Why record a unique Voice Phrase for the Low Battery
Message?
When it senses installed batteries are nearly
run down, Quick Talk transmits a factory-programmed
"Low Battery" message no more often than once an hour.
If you have several units grouped within radio range of one
another, we recommend you customize messages to
easily identify the specific unit.
NOTE: Also physically mark the Quick Talk case with the
same unique identifier (number) you record for
Quick Talk location phrasing (see page 10).
Do I need to program this feature? If you use only one
Quick Talk in an area, or if you regularly change Quick Talk
batteries, the factory-programmed message may be
sufficient: you can skip to the next section.
TO RECORD LOW BATTERY PHRASE:
a. Pick up the telephone receiver and listen for the
acknowledge tone.
b. Dial "35"—Quick Talk prompts you with three short
tones to begin speaking.
NOTE: Your recorded LOW BATTERY phrase is to be
no longer than 1.5 seconds.
EXAMPLE: "Low batt five."
c. Hang up the telephone when you are done speaking.
d. To review the recorded phrase, dial "45".
e. Repeat steps "a" through "d" until you are pleased
with the results.

RECORDING UNIQUE
POWER FAILURE MESSAGES
What is the purpose of recording a unique Voice Phrase
for the Power Failure Message? When it senses power
failure, Quick Talk transmits a factory-programmed "Power

another, we recommend you customize messages to
easily identify the specific unit.
NOTE: Also physically mark the Quick Talk case with the
same unique identifier (number) you record for
Quick Talk location phrasing (see page 10).
Do I need to program this feature? If you use only one
Quick Talk in an area, or if you regularly change Quick Talk
batteries, the factory-programmed message may be
sufficient: you can skip to the next section.
TO RECORD POWER FAILURE PHRASE:

SETTING
BATTERY SAVER OPTIONS
TO SET BATTERY SAVER OPTIONS:
The Battery Saver factory default is "Battery Saver enabled." In
this setting, which greatly extends battery life, Quick Talk
checks switch inputs for changes 4 times a second.
a. Dial "932" to enable Battery Saver.
NOTE: DO NOT disable the Battery Saver unless you
need to detect very fast changes in the switch
inputs.
To detect very fast changes, set Quick Talk to check switch
inputs rapidly:
b. Dial "931" to disable Battery Saver.
NOTE: Powering the Quick Talk with an external Power
Supply is very practical with the Battery Saver
Option disabled, because Quick Talk draws
approximately 7 mA continuously with this setting.
