Hi, just got my Sky Talker. There are basically three buttons. Two volume buttons on the top right and one power button on the front panel in the center. The box turns on and off automatically as you turn your sky box on and off. On the back there are two cables. One is a scart cable and the other is a serial cable. The scart cable replaces the scart lead which goes in your sky box. Then plug the scart lead from your tv in to the back of the thing you just plugged in to the scart socket on your sky box. Then plug the serial cable in to the serial port on your sky box. Mine is to the right of the scart socket as you look at the front of the box. Now your good to just turn on your sky box and it will work although mine took a few seconds to start working initially. To change the voice or it's rate hold down the power button until it says entering setup menu. Then just use volume keys to change. Presss power button once again to move to the voice speed and again use volume keys.

Then press and hold power button to exit setup menu.
That's all there is to it.
It's not perfect. You hear the name of the channel,, programme name as you move through channels. You don't hear any input about the recorded programmes until you play them, at which point it tells you the channel name and programme name. Press i and it will read the info.
Hope that helps.
Peter
