Omit any punctuation or symbols. For example, instead of "the #1 $10 pizza!" use "the
•
number one ten dollar pizza". Including non-pronounceable characters or symbols for one
command may cause the speech engine to fail to compile the grammar for all your
commands.
Make your voice parameter as distinct as reasonably possible from other voice
•
commands you define. The greater the similarity between the voice grammars for
commands, the more likely the speech engine will make a recognition error. You can also
use the confidence scores to better distinguish between two commands that may have
similar or similar-sounding grammar.
HomeSeer Phone
HomeSeer Phone is an add-on application to the HomeTroller that adds telephone control. With
this application you can:
•
Control the HomeTroller with voice commands or touch-tones from any phone from
outside or inside your home (if the Way2Call Hi-Phone or Hi-Phone Lite voice interface is
installed).
Create events in the HomeTroller that are triggered by phone events, such as:
•
When the phone first rings
o
On each phone ring
o
When a caller leaves a voice message
o
When a voice message is read
o
When caller ID information is available
o
When a phone goes off hook
o
Caller ID can be used to play special greetings to callers or hang-up on the caller. Caller
•
ID information can be announced by the Speaker Client or displayed on the screen.
A complete scripting interface is available so you can create your own scripts to handle
•
calls.
Two built-in answering systems are available to allow a user to leave a message in a
•
mailbox, or just simply leave a message in the default mailbox.
Connecting the Telephone Voice Interface
The Way2Call Hi-Phone USB or Hi-Phone Lite Voice Interface is required to enable the telephone
functions of HomeSeer Phone software. The Voice Interface is designed to connect to one of the
HomeTroller's USB ports and the phone connections may be configured for whole-home use or
for use with one specific telephone. The Voice Interface must be installed in series with the
phone or phones you wish to control. Installation and configuration instructions are included
with the Voice Interface.
