Step 2: Check the Acoustic and/or Language Model checkbox as desired, then click Go. (Note that Language

Model optimization is typically much faster than Acoustic Optimization.)

Scheduling the Optimizations—and Data Collection

For convenience, Dragon lets you schedule a specific time and frequency for these optimizations. You can do

this at the time you create your profile, and you can also do it later by going to the Administrative Settings

dialog (available from the DragonBar’s Tools menu) and using its Scheduled Tasks tab.

IMPORTANT:

When you schedule a Dragon task, pick a time when your computer will be on (not

sleeping, not hibernating), but Dragon will not be running (not even running in QuickStart mode).

The documentation contains details about how end-users and Administrators can access these optimizations

and Dragon’s scheduling; the latest is available along with other Dragon documents on the Nuance website.

In addition to Accuracy Tuning, you can choose to schedule another periodic task: the sending of anonymous

usage data over the Internet to participate in the Data Collection which helps Nuance’s Research &

Development team improve future releases of Dragon for all.
