Apple Power Macintosh 8100 Series - Manual (Page 47)

Follow these steps to connect and position the microphone:
1 Shut down the Macintosh.
2 Plug the microphone’s connector into the sound input port (
X
) on the back of the
computer.
3 Place the microphone at the top center of the monitor, so that the microphone’s
Apple (
K
) icon is facing you.
If you can’t place the microphone on top of the monitor, position the
microphone according to these guidelines:
m The microphone should be between 1 and 3 feet away from you.
m The microphone should be directly in front of you to minimize the
effect of background noises.
4 Turn on the computer.
You’re now ready to begin using your microphone.
To install Apple PlainTalk software, which enables you to give spoken
commands to the computer, get computer-voice feedback to your spoken
commands, and have the computer read text to you, see Chapter 4.
