When you are programming a new voice command or keyword,
inVoca will ask you to say a word. You must choose a voice
command that is easy for you to remember and is distinct from any
other voice command.
inVoca will warn you if you speak to soon, or
too softly. inVoca will always ask you to repeat the command. This
is to insure that the command was correctly recorded. For example,
a background noise that you did not notice may have been recorded as
part of the command. You may be asked to repeat the command
several times before
inVoca is convinced that it has a good sample.
If the command or keyword is similar to one already recorded, inVoca
will ask you to " Choose a different word ."
See “Choosing Voice Commands” (Page 25) for some guidelines in
selecting commands.

USING VOICE COMMANDS
L L
To maximize battery life, the inVoca will "sleep" when not in use.
Remember to "wake up" the inVoca by pressing the
[Wake_up]
button before giving the inVoca a voice command. When you first
wake up inVoca , it will remain awake for 60 seconds as it listens for
the first voice command. Each time inVoca recognizes a command,
it will remain awake for another 60 seconds as it listens for the next
command. (This time is adjustable. See page 47
)

Please be sure the room is reasonably quiet — while the inVoca
employs the latest state-of-the-art in speech recognition, it will
nonetheless have difficulty recognizing commands if two people are
speaking at once or if there is other background noise.

inVoca requires a brief period of silence before it can recognize
a voice command.

The inVoca will immediately listen for remote commands when the
[Wake_up]
button is pressed. The LED will light green indicating
that it is listening for a voice command. The LCD Display will
indicate the last device (TV, VCR, Cable box, etc.) you have
selected.
The closer inVoca is to you, the better the chance it has of hearing
and understanding your commands, especially in a noisy room.
Remember
inVoca is trying to understand what you are saying over
the sounds coming out of the TV. In general, you will have best
results when
inVoca is between 18 and 36 inches from your mouth
in a quiet room, and between 12 and 24 inches in a noisy room. You
may adjust this with the microphone sensitivity switch (page 29).
L
As with any remote control, the infrared LEDs must be pointing
at the device to be controlled when either a button is pressed or a
voice command is utilized.
