Setting up the skew angle:
1. Open the Motion Dashboard.

not calibrate wide angle.)
3. Move to where you want the microphone to detect your voice.
4. Tap Calibrate. A block of text appears.
5. Read the text aloud, speaking normally towards the Tablet PC micro-
phones. This should take 20-40 seconds.
NOTE: In many cases, you will not need to calibrate the
microphone because the audio system filters out many
unwanted sounds. If you are dictating in an office or recording
during a meeting, the audio system may work well with no
additional calibration.
IMPORTANT: The audio system does not store calibrations.
If you change to another angle/position and then return to the
previous one, you must re-calibrate the audio system.
