When you are the speaker: 

 

Spoken-word commands or responses appear as 
uppercase first letter and in bold (for example, 

Dial

). 

 

Digit responses appear as individual numbers 
with a dash between digits (for example, 1-8-0-
0) 

 

Commands or responses that have multiple 
words appear as uppercase words with a dash 
between words (for example, JOHN-SMITH-
HOME).  This indicates that the words should 
be spoken without pausing between words. 

 

MODES OF OPERATION 

 

VControl

 is designed for use in automotive 

environments.  You control the unit through a 
“single” touch tactile control pad, and through voice 
commands you control the desired functionality.  
The unit prompts you with an easy-to-follow 
dialogue and recognizes a variety of accents, but 
also performs exceptionally well in an environment 

with typical background noise (air conditioning, 
road and engine noise, etc.). 
 

SPEECH AND TONES 

 

VControl

 communicates in two (2) ways: 

 

Human Voice

 

The system says names, prompts, locations, 
and numbers in a high-quality human voice. 
 

 

Beeps

 

VCONTROL™™

 augments its speech with 

a single beep through the dialogue, the 
meaning of which is dependent upon 
context.  In most cases the beep is to signify 
that the system has concluded it’s prompt 
and is waiting for a command.
