Learn about wireless technology
The SpeechOne uses wireless technology to establish a
connection between the dictation headset and the docking
station.
A wireless connection doesn't require that the SpeechOne
and the docking station be in line of sight. However, the
maximum distance between the SpeechOne and the dock-
ing station should not be more than 5 meters (16 feet). The
closer the devices are to each other, the better is the per-
formance. The connection is subject to interference from
distance and obstructions or other electronic devices.
NOTE
Make sure to keep a minimum distance of 50 cm
(18 inches) between the docking station and oth-
er wireless devices, such as smartphones or lap-
tops. If the distance is less than 50 cm (18 inches),
there might be interferences between the dock-
ing station and other wireless devices.

notify you about this. If you have a SpeechExec application
running on your computer, the software will be stopped.
In this case, move closer to the docking station to reenter
the reception area.
X The connection is reestablished.
X A voice prompt will notify you that the connection is es-
tablished again.
