Template Training Options
All new operators must train their voice templates in order to perform a task with the Vocollect Voice
system. Supervisors have four options for operators to train templates when using a device.
Note: Always speak in your normal tone of voice when training templates.
Training with the Talkman Device Only
Once a new operator is recognized by a Talkman device, the Vocollect Voice system instructs him/her to
train all the words he/she will use in the task.
Note: This process can be improved when used in conjunction with the section “Training Using a
Printed List of Words” as found below.
Note: Your supervisor must set up the system to use the voice-only option for creating templates
with a handheld device.
1. Turn your device on by pressing the Play/Pause button.
The LED indicator turns red for a few moments then turns green. The device says, "Please keep quiet
for a few seconds." After a pause, the device says, "Please say zero."
2. Say "Zero."
The device says "One."
3. Say "One."
The device says, "Two."
4. Say "Two."
The device says, "Please say the following words..."
5. As the device says each word, say it back to the device. The device will prompt you with the same
word at least four times; repeat the word each time it asks. If it prompts you for phrases, say the
phrase naturally, without pauses between the words.
When the device has asked for all words in the task the necessary number of times, the device will
say, "Creating voice templates. Please wait." It will then beep periodically until all of the remaining
voice templates have been created. When the remaining voice templates have been created, the device
says, "Finished creating voice templates." The device then goes to sleep. You can begin the task by
pressing the Play/Pause button.
Training Using and Visual Training Device
Note: This is not supported on the Talkman T1.
1. Be sure the training device is configured.
2. Connect the training device to your Talkman T-Series device.
3. Turn your Talkman device on by pressing the Play/Pause button.
