Q: Why does the LED alternate flashing between red and yellow two times and not play my message?
A: This is typically related to an issue with the battery installed in the device.
- The battery may be low or depleted.
- You are using a battery labeled "Heavy Duty", "Industrial Grade" or "ProCell". These types of batteries handle power differently than regular alkaline batteries, and when used in our devices respond similar to low/dead batteries.
We recommend using a regular alkaline battery to avoid any issues with recording
or playing messages.
Q: Why can't I change levels or record new messages?
A: It's likely the lock feature has been enabled. To enable/disable the lock feature press and hold the Record and Level buttons at the same time for 5 seconds. When activated/deactivated you should see all the LED's flash twice, then turn off.
Q: Do the top 3 message cells change with different levels?
A: The top 3 messages are core messages that remain the same through all levels.
Q: How long is the total recording time?
A: Total recording time across all the levels:
- QuickTalker FT 7: 6 minutes of total record time
- QuickTalker FT 12: 12 minutes of total record time
- QuickTalker FT 23: 20 minutes of total record time
Q: Can you add an external switch or operate a toy/appliance with this device?A: No, the QuickTalker FT 7, 12 and 23 do not have input or output for external equipment. If you require this functionality, we'd recommend reviewing the SuperTalker FT as a suitable option.
Q: Why can’t I record a new message on a QuickTalker FT?
A: If you are unable to record a new message on the QuickTalker FT, it may be due to the device needing new batteries, being locked, or having a full memory.
Q: How To Fix Robotic or Static Noise on the QuickTalker FT?
A:
A robotic or static noise may happen when the device is in need of a master
reset. Perform a master clear of all of the messages by following the steps
below. Please be aware that this will erase all messages on all levels of
your device, including Core Message locations.
- Press and hold the record button for 30 seconds.
- You will hear the QuickTalker FT beep after 10 seconds. Continue to hold
the record button.
- After 30 seconds, you will hear a second set of beeps.
- Release the record button.
Once you have performed the master clear, record a new message on your
QuickTalker FT to test the audio.
