9. Starting Up

RECORDING

1. Connect the round tip of the power supply to the round socket at the top of the white

control box.

2. Plug in at a mains wall socket. Turn the control box ON –press down the volume knob

until you hear a click (press it again to turn it OFF).

Make sure the switch on the cube itself is ON. It is switched ON when the switch shows

RED. The Mini Talking Cube is supplied with a pre-recorded message on each side. To

change this recording, place the cube so that the side you wish to associate a message

to is facing upwards.

3. Wait for the pre-recorded message to play before making your recording.

4. The control box should be approximately 30cm away from you, although this distance

need not be precise as the recording volume will automatically adjust to account for the

volume of your voice.

5. When you are ready to record, press the red record button (labelled ‘Record’) and wait

for the red light. Start talking immediately after the red light comes on. Release at the

end of recording.

6. You have a maximum of three seconds recording time for each side of the cube. Should

your message exceed three seconds, the recording will simply stop –it will not run over

to the recording time of another side.

7. The red light above the record button indicates that the unit is recording.

8. The cube will immediately play back your recording. Proceed with the recordings for

the other sides or re-record your message as required.

RECORDING TIPS

Start talking immediately after the red light comes on. A delay at the start of recording

will result in a delay in the cube ‘talking’ when it settles after being thrown

If you don’t like your recording, start again – you can re-record the message as often as

you need to

Record in a quiet environment and avoid background noise –e.g. turn off the TV/radio,

use a quiet room, close the window etc.

RECORDING SUGGESTIONS

COLOURS: corresponding to colour of the side

NAMES: the names of the people you are using the cube with for turn-taking

ACTIVITIES/EXERCISES: jump, blink, hop, kneel etc

NUMBERS: for early maths activities

ANIMALS: record corresponding sounds or the spoken name of the animal

LETTERS: for spelling games

Record in different languages for modern language practice

OPERATION & ACTIVITY SUGGESTIONS

1. Connect the round tip of the power supply to the round socket at the top of the white

control box.

2. Plug in at a mains wall socket. Turn the control box ON –press down the volume knob

until you hear a click (press it again to turn it OFF). A light on the receiver box indicates

whether the power switch is turned ON/OFF. Make sure this is ON before use.

3. Turn ON the switch in the Cube itself. It is switched ON when the switch shows red.

4. Throw the Mini Talking Cube. The recording of the uppermost side will be activated.

5. Vary activities by using the transparent pockets on the sides to hold images,

photographs, words etc (not included). Place any paper/card inside with care so as not

to put strain on the transparent pockets. This are likley to become damaged if not

handled with appropriate care.

6. The colours of the cube correspond with colours typically found on parachutes. Co-

ordinate activities using such products simultaneously.

7. Adjust the volume as required. There is a Volume dial on the top of the control box.

This is labelled ‘Volume’.

8. Make sure the ON/OFF switch is set to ON (see point 10 below).

9. The transmitter in the Mini Talking Cube goes to sleep after approximately one minute

to help preserve the battery.

10. It does not matter if a person stands between the transmitter and the receiver –these

should work through obstacles.

11. An ON/OFF switch can be located by undoing the zip a small amount. Make sure that

all ON/OFF switches of the product are switched OFF after use. The light on the receiver

will go out when OFF.

Remove battery after use

TALKING CUBE AS PART OF WI FI

In conjunction with compatible ROMPA®products, the Talking Cube can be used as a switch.

Not only will the cube tell you the colour on the uppermost face of the Cube (or play your

recorded message), it will also change the colour of the panel displays, Milky Way Carpets,

Star Cloths, bubble tubes and fibre optics around you to the colour of the uppermost face.

14. Care and Maintenance

Battery Maintenance:

Change the 9V battery inside the cube as required. Rechargeable batteries may be

used. Remove battery from the unit before recharging. Gently lift the PVC flap around

three sides of the cube to expose the zip. Open the zip. A slit will be visible in the foam

inside the cube. Reach into the slit and pull out the grey box. Turn the box over and

slide the battery compartment lid off –an arrow indicates which way to remove this.

Remove the exhausted battery and replace with a new battery of the same

specification. Do not attempt to access the interior of this box. Push the grey box back

into the Mini Talking Cube and close the zip. Make sure the grey box is put back in the

correct way round –coloured stickers indicate the correct orientation.

Carefully put the flap back over the zip.

To clean the PVC (Vinyl)

Organise a regular cleaning schedule

Use a soft brush to remove all loose dust/dirt

Clean with a mild detergent (such as Lux soap flakes in luke-warm solution) applied to a

sponge or damp cloth.

This may be sanitised using a weak solution of Milton fluid.

Do not use excessive amounts of water and always ensure the PVC is dry after cleaning.

Do not use an abrasive cleaning pad.

Do not use boiling/very hot water, washing up liquid / aggressive detergent or solvent

based cleaner as this will cause the coating to discolour and go hard.

Steam cleaning is not advised.

General Care

Use in dry environments.

Remove the battery if the product will be out of use for long periods to preserve battery life.

Do not fix the control box to the wall –it is recommended that this be kept as a portable

device rather than fixed down. If it is absolutely essential to attach it to a wall, mirror

brackets should be used so it can be removed later if required.

Note: Vinyl will crack, tear and “rub off” if subjected to sharp objects or continual rubbing

by hard objects. Avoid shoes, buckles or sharp/hard objects.

15. Troubleshooting

NO SOUND? Check:

1. Does the volume need adjusting?

2. Does the battery need replacing?

3. Is the power supply correctly connected to the control box?

4. Is the power supply plugged in at the wall?

5. Is the power supply switched on at the wall?

6. If you took the transmitter out the cube, did you remember to put it back again?

7. Is the small grey box inside the Cube fitted squarely inside the cube? Make sure it is not

at an angle. If in any doubt, take out the grey box and make sure it works correctly by

testing it on a flat table or floor. Make sure the grey box has been put inside the correct

way round i.e. each labelled side next to the correct colour of the cube.

8. Switch off for 30 seconds minimum and then start up again. This will allow the

product to reset itself.
