5.6 Using the buttons
In natural speech, individual syllables, words or parts of sentences are emphasised by a change in pitch.
The SERVOX ® digital XL speech aid therefore has 2 buttons that are assigned different pitches.

Botton A Button B
In the factory setting, the upper button (A) is preset in a lower audio frequency as the basic tone for speaking and the lower button (B) in a
higher audio frequency for emphasising individual syllables, words or parts of sentences. The pitch of each button can be adjusted individually.
 Hold button (A) to speak (basic tone)
 Briefly change to button (B) to emphasise individual language elements
The buttons can be operated with the index and middle fingers or by tilting the thumb (see Figure 13 and 14).
5.7 Setting the audio frequency
Warning
• Never hold the SERVOX digital XL speech aid to your ear!
®
• Never adjust the SERVOX digital XL speech aid while holding it at an application point!
®
To make the speech sound as natural as possible, the pitch should be adjusted as close as possible to the
former voice position.
Setting the audio frequency of the buttons
First remove the titanium sleeve. Replace the battery holder and screw the base cover back on
There are 2 DIP switches on the back of the housing. Each of the DIP switches is assigned to one of the
buttons.
Figure (15) DIP switches
The assignment "A" and "B" is labelled on the DIP switch side.
Assignment of the DIP switches
 Button A = DIP switch 2
 Button B = DIP switch 1
The DIP switches can be operated with a pin.
Setting options with DIP switch and button
If both DIP switches are in the OFF position (top), the audio frequency is secured against change.
If the DIP switch of a button is set to ON, the sound frequency of this button can be increased or decrea-
sed by pressing the other buttons.
 Increase frequency by1 Hz -> press button A 1 x
 Decrease frequency by1 Hz -> press button B 1 x
 Press repeatedly to increase or decrease each in 1 HZ steps
 When a button is held longer, the value increases or decreases continuously.
