You can choose a default dictation device from the list. (If the system detects only one microphone attached to your computer, this drop-down list does not appear.)
If your institution allows you access to more than one PowerScribe 360 | Reporting server, you can add the servers to your computer so that they appear in a drop-down list on the login screen. If you add servers, you can select which server to connect to at each login.
