Use application shortcuts
The Device Control Center software allows to start and con-
trol other applications with the keys on the SpeechMike.
The Device Control Center software includes pre-installed
profiles that make the SpeechMike ready for immediate op-
eration with Dragon NaturallySpeaking speech recognition
software and Microsoft Powerpoint. Additional profiles for
other applications can be programmed.
1. Download and install the latest version of SpeechCon-
trol (Philips Device Control Center) from
www.dictation.philips.com/speechcontrol.
2. If the option to start the Device Control Center auto-
matically was selected during installation, the applica-
tion icon appears in the notification area of the Win-
dows task bar.
To manually start the program, open the Windows start
menu in Windows and select Philips Speech Control >
Philips Device Control Center.
3. Right-click on the application
area of the Windows task bar and verify that Activate
application control is enabled. If the option is disabled,

plication shortcuts to prevent unintentional re-
cording when controlling other applications.
