voice recognition feature

SYNC

௡ is equipped with an advanced interactive Voice Recognition (VR)

system. This system allows you to perform many operations by
“speaking” certain commands to the system. The system will respond
with a series of audible tones, prompts, questions and spoken
confirmations depending on the situation and the chosen level of
dialogue interaction.

Feedback through audible tones

Your VR system will respond through various audible tones. You may
hear a tone at the following times:
• When you press

.

• When you access the help feature.
• When the VR system does not understand your request.
• When a VR session is completed successfully.
• When a VR session is ended unsuccessfully.
• When a speed dependent feature has been accessed.
• When a new device is connected.
SYNC

௡ has five different audible tones that will play depending on the

circumstance.
• Initial: Sounds when you are entering a new mode.
• Positive: Sounds for a positive recognition or a successful VR session

completion.

• Negative: Sounds for a negative recognition, an unsuccessful VR

session, or when a speed dependent feature has been accessed.

• Listening: Sounds when the system is ready to listen for a command.
• Help: Sounds when you ask for ’Help’.
Confirmation prompts

Confirmation prompts are short questions asked by the system when the
system has not clearly understood your request or when there are many
possible responses to your request. For example, if you have
Confirmation prompts ON, the system may say, “Phone, is that correct?”.
The system will then listen for a “Yes” or “No” confirmation from you. If
you say “Yes”, the system will proceed. If you say “No”, the system will
ask you to say the command again. If you have Confirmation prompts
OFF, the system will simply make a best guess as to what you requested.
