If this feature is activated for your user, the following buttons will be available when editing a report:
Voice input indication:
A colored bar is displayed under the microphone icon, indicating if the user is speaking too loud, too silent or at a suitable level.

Optimal voice input
Voice input too high
When the voice input is reaching the color orange, the user will receive a toast message that says to lower the volume for better recognition.
"Your input volume is too high. Please lower your volume to have better recognition. It's advisable to adjust the input level on your device."
See the topics below on how to change this volume input.

Multi-monitor application
In the multi-monitor application, all of the above topics work without any configuration.
The speechmike buttons also work when the application is not focused, e.g: when the user is working in another external application (Syngo.via), the user can still use the speechmike buttons.
Browser
The speechmike buttons will not work in the browser without configuration.
The speechmike buttons can be used in Chrome, but additional configuration is required.

Synchronous playback:
If the user selects a word or phrase and presses play, the corresponding audio of the selected text is played.
Playback is stopped at the end of the selected text.
If the user has not made a selection but the cursor is at a certain location in the text and presses play, the audio will be played from the cursor position in the text.
Playback continues until the end of the text is reached.
If the user clicks stop during playback, the audio is stopped and the cursor will be located at the corresponding place in the text.
Saving of report audio
The report audio is saved in the background for performance reasons.
If the saving is still in progress when closing the browser tab, a warning message will be displayed.
It is still possible to close the tab, however the related audio file will be lost.
| Tip: For optimal recognition, it is recommended to set the microphone recording volume in the Windows sound settings quite low. This keeps the recording of background noise to a minimum. E.g. Speech Mike = 15 |

The audio configuration can be modified from within PACSonWEB.
By hovering over the microphone icon, a configuration menu will appear which allows to
• Select the language (if more than 1 is configured)

◦ Only possible when using the Multi Monitor Application and non speechmike devices.
