Certain features within the Flex application can be used "Hands Free".  This means that a voice in the application (her name is Lydia!) will dictate commands to the user (for example "Vision Flex ready for login, provide user ID"), and the user can feedback by speaking (for example "1234 OK").  This is particularly useful for certain warehouse processes such as picking when it may be advantageous to keep the users hands free for picking, instead of having to keep picking up the device to use the application.

Requirements:

• Your device supports our voice software (all devices provided by Ontech are supported)
• Your device has 'Voice Enabled' in the Vision Warehousing setup, see: 2. Device registration & user setup
• You are running Flex version 0.5.4 onwards

Enable voice in your user profile

1. Open the Flex application and sign in
2. Open your user profile
3. Toggle the 'Voice Enabled' switch to the ON position
4. Press 'Save'
5. The application will tell you that you need to be logged out of the application to download the necessary voice files, press OK
6. Sign in again
7. The application will start the voice file download
   1. This may take some time but this happens only once (and any time the voice files change, which is rare, and then only the changed files are downloaded)
   2. When all files are downloaded, you will be taken to the main menu and Lydia will start talking
8. From this point onwards you can use voice wherever permitted in the application, and you may of course use the screen itself as well.

Apart from the menu / screen specific commands, there are some commands which can be used throughout the application at any time.
