Setting your own keyword
The RCA Voice-Command Remote uses keywords to separate the
sounds it should pay attention to—your voice commands—from
the sounds it should ignore—regular conversation, TV sound, etc.
By default, the RCA Voice Control Remote uses the phrase
“Remote control”
as its keyword. This means that you must say
the word
“Remote control”
before you issue a command.
Once you’ve practiced using voice control for a while, you
may want to set your own keyword. The remote will recognize
your voice more consistently if you are the one who sets the
keyword and voice commands. Some suggested keywords are
“Commander,” “Abracadabra,”
and, of course,
“Remote control.”
“Say
a
keyword.”
HOLD
1.
Press and hold the
TRAIN
button.
The remote responds:
“Say a
keyword.”
Wait for the KEYWORD light
to illuminate before you speak.
2.
Say the keyword you want to use. (For
example,
“Abracadabra.”
)
The RCA Voice Control Remote asks
you to repeat the word.
“Repeat”
Abracadabra
“Keyword
assigned”
Abracadabra
3.
Say the keyword again.
If the two words match, the remote
responds:
“Keyword assigned.”
Now when you press the
LISTEN
button, the remote will be
waiting for the keyword you just set to start executing voice
commands. The COMMAND indicator will illuminate (ready for
voice commands) when you say the keyword.
To reset the keyword:
Press
HELP 3 2
. The RCA Voice Control
Remote responds:
“Keyword erased.”
The keyword resets to
“Remote control.”
IMPORTANT:
Changing the keyword makes it much harder for
other people to train the remote for voice commands. So if you
want to let several different people train the remote, keep the
default keyword.
To set the remote to recognize your keyword:
IMPORTANT:
Be sure the room is reasonably quiet.
