Chapter 2 Using your C5v/F5v Using the built-in microphones 33
Resetting the display after returning the tablet to the docking station
If you set up your tablet in a docking station with the display theme expanded across both,
and you remove the tablet temporarily from the docking station, the display theme may
need to be reset when you return the tablet to the docking station.

IP: If the display still doesn’t work properly, change the Display Scheme to Tablet Only and
then change it back to the desired scheme.
Using the built-in microphones
You can use the built-in array microphones to record audio, dictate notes, and use voice
commands. The two microphones are used at the same time to optimize sound detection
for speech recognition and voice recording.
You can use the Speak Anywhere acoustics software to fine tune the built-in microphones
to suit your environment. The software enables you to use the microphones in a variety of
settings, including small or large groups, noisy environments, or for individual dictation or
voice commands. The software improves the microphone reception by:
• Removing all sounds outside of the user-defined angle of acceptance.
• Minimizing background and ambient noise.
• Removing echo caused by the microphone picking up the speaker output (feedback).
Using speech recognition
You can use speech recognition to interact with your tablet by voice. You can dictate
documents and emails or use voice commands to control programs.
• Dictation mode—With Dictation mode, your tablet listens to everything you say and
converts your words to text. You can use dictation mode to enter text directly into any
document or text box.
• Voice command mode—With Voice command mode, your tablet listens for specific
words that correspond to a list of available voice commands. You can use commands to
switch between programs, save documents, copy, paste or undo.
Setting up speech recognition
Before you can use speech recognition, you must configure the microphones and train the
system for the characteristics of your voice. Then, you can take the available speech tutorial
to learn basic voice commands.
