Voice Settings
Voice settings allow you to customize the
level of system interaction, help and
feedback. The system defaults to standard
interaction that uses candidate lists and
confirmation prompts as these provide the
highest level of guidance and feedback. •
Interaction Mode: Novice mode provides
detailed interaction and guidance while
the advanced mode has less audible
interaction and more tone prompts.
• Confirmation Prompts: The system uses
these short questions to confirm your
voice request. If turned off, the system
simply makes a best guess as to what
you requested. The system may still
occasionally ask you to confirm settings.
• Phone and Media Candidate Lists:
Candidate lists are lists of possible results
from your voice commands. The system
creates these lists when it has the same
confidence level of several options based
on your voice command.
To access these settings using the
