Programming the SpeechMike Buttons
To program the buttons of your SpeechMike, double click the desired button or select the
desired button in the button list by clicking on it and press the Button Properties button
to call up the Button Properties window.
Keyboard Input:
Keyboard input can be entered line by line and hotkey by hotkey in the field in this
window. The list box above will show the complete text and/or hotkeys configured for
the button/key combination selected in the buttons list. Each new command or text is
inserted at the end of an existing list.
By clicking the Hotkey or Text button next to the input line, you can specify whether
you want to assign a command/shortcut or a text to a SpeechMike button.
For a hotkey or a series of hotkeys, click Hotkey, then press the hotkey combination on your keyboard (such as Ctrl+N to
open a new document). It is recommended that you open the application for which you want to program hotkeys and switch
between the applications on your screen to check the correct input and execution of a shortcut right away.
For text or text blocks, click Text, type in the required text and finish by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard (do not
forget to press Enter to confirm each text block). For a new text line (carriage return) in your text block, press Enter.
If you want to insert a new hotkey or text at a specific position in the list of commands, place the cursor at the following
text/hotkey and start your new entry. The addition will be inserted immediately before the highlighted text/hotkey.
You can also enter a command to start an application. Select Text, enter !start *.exe (do not forget the '!') with the name of
the executable (.exe) file for the desired application and press the Enter key on your keyboard.
Up:
Click this button to move the selected command or text line up one line in the list.
