The wake word to activate Sentai is “Hi Sentai”
Say the wake word and Sentai will ask how it can help. Alternatively say the wake word and right away ask a question, and Sentai will respond.
Press the button on the Sentai hub once, and Sentai will greet and start a conversation.
To mute Sentai, say the wake word and “Go mute” or press the button for 3 seconds until the red light appears. This will stop any incoming interactions. However, Sentai will still listen for the wake word.
To unmute, just press the button or say the wake word and “Unmute”.
Postpone an interaction by mentioning a time, or number of minutes, or by just asking Sentai to come back later. If no timeframe is mentioned, Sentai will come back after 30 min.
You can stop an interaction by pressing the button or by saying “Sentai stop!’ Sentai will try again after 30 minutes. If you don’t want to be disturbed, say the wake word and “go mute”, or press the button for 3 seconds until the lights on the device go red. If you want to unmute Sentai, press the button again once, or say the wake word and “Unmute”.
You can ask Sentai to increase or decrease the volume if you can’t hear it, or ask it to set it to maximum. The Sentai speaker has no physical volume buttons.
You can ask Sentai to not disturb them for a period of time, or tell Sentai that they are going away. Sentai will not try to reach out during this period. A notification will be sent to carers and family. This is an easy way to stop unwanted interruptions, for example during a conversation or an afternoon nap. It also is an easy way for users to inform the circle of care that they are not around. Sentai will try to catch up on earlier, missed reminders after by weaving them into any later conversations.
