Introducing The Large Screen Speakerphone

1.2.2Half-Duplex Speakerphone Guidelines

NOTE: The speakerphone user guidelines in this section do not apply to the Impact SCS 8412F-** when it is operating in full-duplex mode. However, when the 8412F-** is in half-duplex mode or in “speech training” mode, the following guidelines are applicable.

These guidelines are also applicable to the 8412S-** whenever it is in speakerphone mode.

Background noise may prevent the sound-activated switches from operating properly. Avoid placing the speakerphone where it will detect sounds from typewriters, keyboards, printers, paging systems, and other equipment.

Speak slightly louder than normal and in a clear voice. For the microphone to best detect your voice, speak within three feet of it and face the telephone.

Raising the volume of the loudspeaker makes it easier for the sound-activated switches in your telephone to select the distant party’s voice. Lowering the volume of the loudspeaker makes it easier for the switches to select your voice.

Since the system takes several seconds to provide the best switching, constant sound patterns—such as elongating your words and playing externally-supplied music—may prevent the sound-activated switches from operating properly.

Place the telephone on a hard surface and away from table edges. Do not place the telephone in corners or enclosures. Do not let obstructions come between you and the microphone. Rooms with hard, flat surfaces that reflect sound may affect the sound-activated switches.

If you are using a handset and the other party is using a speakerphone, avoid breathing heavily into your microphone. Avoid other sounds that may affect the distant telephone’s sound-activated switches.

In some situations, such as when either you or the distant party is in a noisy environment, you may have to lift your handset to ensure a clear conversation.
