Using Motion Dashboard Directional Controls. The Microphone settings
in the Motion Dashboard include three radio buttons that define the
directional angle that is to be used for speech recording. The selected
setting determines the angle of acceptance. The following information is
intended to help you understand the differences between the narrow,
medium, and wide angles. However, the best reference will be your actual
experience in using the technology. There are three microphones, but only
two are used at one time. If you are in landscape mode, the microphones
along the bottom edge (as viewed in primary landscape mode) of the Tablet
PC are used. If you are in portrait mode, the two microphones along the
right side are used.
Angle of acceptance. Three pre-defined “angles of acceptance” are
part of the Motion Speak Anywhere audio technology:
• Narrow Angle — Best setting for dictation, Voice over IP, “voice
noisy” environments; the microphones detect sound on a narrow
angle near the bottom center (landscape orientation) or top center
(portrait orientation) of the display. If you do not speak within the
angle of acceptance, e.g., if you turn your head while dictating or
change the angle of the Tablet PC, the sound will not be recorded.
• Medium Angle (default) — Best setting for a small group, conference
table, “voice quiet” environment; microphones detect at a wider
angle
• Wide Angle — Widest angle of acceptance. Try starting with this
setting (even for dictation) before using a more restricted angle.
Change to the Narrow or Medium Angle to eliminate more
background noise.
1 Narrow Angle; 2 Medium Angle; 3 Wide Angle; 4 Microphones (only two of
the three are shown in the illustration).
Skew angle. The pre-set sound detection area is straight in front of
the system display. If you want the system to receive sound from
