Chapter 6: Configuring and using the Roaming feature and Roaming User Profiles
Where to install and configure Dragon
Installing Dragon where you plan to dictate using
the Roaming feature
Dragonmust be installed each computer where you plan to have users dictating with Roaming
User Profiles.
Installing Dragon on the same computer as your
Master Roaming User Profiles
Nuance recommends that you install Dragon on the same computer where the Master Roaming
User Profiles for your network are located.
As the system administrator, you are responsible for running the Acoustic and Language
Model Optimizer on the network location of the Master Roaming User Profiles. The Acoustic
and Language Model Optimizer and the Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer Sched-
uler can only be run on the Master Roaming User Profiles.
Running the Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer updates the Master Roaming User Profiles
with the accumulated acoustic data from any corrections and additional training done by the users
at the computers where they dictate. Running the Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer will
increase your overall accuracy. Any optimizations done by the Acoustic and Language Model
Optimizer are copied to each Local Roaming User Profile when synchronization occurs.
Running the Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer over the network can result in a large
amount of data being transferred between the server and the workstation running the optimizer.
For more information, see Running the Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer for Roaming
User Profiles.
If you are using Dragon 11 or greater , see Using multiple acoustic models with a User Profile for
information on using the Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer with a User Profile that has
two acoustic models.
Notes:
n You must have Windows Administrator privileges on the computer where you are running the
Scheduler for the Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer .
n Do not enable the Roaming feature on the administrator computer where you plan to run the
Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer .
n When the Roaming feature is enabled on a computer where someone dictates, that computer is
blocked from locally running the Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer or the Acoustic
and Language Model Optimizer Scheduler on the local copy of the Roaming User Profiles.
