General Dictation Tips
Each time you dictate using either method, we recommend that you follow the steps
listed below. They describe what you should do each time you dictate and list many of
the features you can use with ViaVoice.
• Put on your microphone and position it correctly. For more information, see "Audio
Setup Assistant" on page 34.
• If the microphone is off or asleep (the button appears gray), click the microphone
button to turn it on and begin dictating your document.
• Do not run the words together, as at first you might tend to speak quickly.
• Be patient and slow down a bit. Over time, you will find that you can increase your
rate of speaking with no loss of accuracy as long as you speak clearly.
• To view the list of voice commands that you can use to edit and format text while
dictating, say the command below.
SAY> WHAT CAN I SAY
• When you have finished speaking, always turn your microphone off .
• If you need to stop dictating for any reason, say the following command.
SAY> GO TO SLEEP
ViaVoice stops recognizing your speech as dictated text or voice commands until you
say the following voice command.
SAY> WAKE UP
• Dictate punctuation voice commands such as PERIOD , COMMA , and NEW
PARAGRAPH along with your text.
