Chapter 3. Introducing VoiceCenter

It’s worthwhile getting familiar with VoiceCenter, the control center of
ViaVoice. This chapter describes how you use VoiceCenter to control your
spoken interactions with your computer.

If you chose to place VoiceCenter in your

StartUp

folder during installation,

VoiceCenter starts when you start your computer. If you did not place it in
your

StartUp

folder, you can start it from

Start > Programs > IBM ViaVoice

VoiceCenter

. The microphone is off when VoiceCenter is started.

VoiceCenter appears as a taskbar at the top of your Windows desktop.

You can change the appearance (view) of VoiceCenter. See “Changing
VoiceCenter’s appearance” on page 79 for more information.
