Getting Started with the PowerMic II and Dragon Medical, Version 10.1
Using the PowerMic II
Dictating with the PowerMic II
When you finish the
General Training
, you can begin using the
PowerMic
II
.
Hold in the
Dictate
button while you are speaking and release it when you
are done. Make sure that you press the button in completely before you
start talking. Otherwise
Dragon Medical
will cut off the beginning of your
dictation.
Using the PowerMic II as a Mouse
Your
PowerMic II
can also function as a mouse. There are three controls on
the front and one on the back of the microphone that allow you to perform
common mouse functions.
Pointing Device
: Use this control to move your mouse cursor. This button
is very similar to the control seen on many notebook-style computers.
Left/Right Mouse Buttons
: These buttons perform the same functions as
your left and right mouse buttons.
Trigger on back of microphone
: This button functions as a left mouse
button as well, so you can drag objects by holding in the trigger while you
move the pointing device. (See illustration on
.)
