Dragon Administrator Guide version 11.5
Dragon displays a message stating that the user profile is locked and giving them the option of over-
riding it. If you do not want this message displaying and always want to break a network lock in
this situation, you can clear this option to prevent the message from appearing. Because the pres-
ence of a lock can indicate a problem that needs to be addressed, Nuance recommends that you
enable this option.
Notes:
n This option is valid for users connecting to the Master Roaming User Profile location using a
mapped drive or UNC drive, but is not supported for users connecting over HTTP.
n Be careful when in breaking a locked Roaming User Profile. For example, if you break a lock
when another user is writing to the Master Roaming User Profile, breaking the lock may corrupt
the Master Roaming User Profiles.
n If a user opens a Roaming User Profile while the Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer is
running on the Master Roaming User Profile, the user will see a message but can continue.
Set audio levels on each machine (recommended)
Select this box to run the Check your microphone option from the Accuracy Center window
before your first session with a Roaming User Profile. This includes the Volume Check and the
microphone Quality Check . Check this option if your users are dictating on different computers
or on a single computer, like a laptop, in many different locations. When a user changes computers
or locations, the audio setup data can vary depending on differences in the microphone and sound
card, as well as differences in ambient sound levels of each Roaming User Profile location. In sit-
uations where Dragon detects a significant difference between operating systems, sound cards,
microphones, or other hardware, the program will prompt you to run Check your microphone
even if you do not have this option selected.
Save acoustic information
A user selects the Save acoustic information option to make sure that their acoustic information
is saved along with their local User Profile. By saving the acoustic information, the user ensures
that any corrections they make will be available after they close and re-open the User Profile. This
option also makes sure that these corrections will be synchronized between the Local and Master
Roaming User Profile if the user also enables the Always copy acoustic information to network
option.
This option is turned on by default
Copy Dragon Log to Network
Select this box to copy the Dragon.log file from the local workstation to the master Roaming User
Profile location whenever the program synchronizes the local and master Roaming User Profile.
Dragon.log contains information that can help to diagnose problems that your users might
encounter using Dragon.
Note: The Dragon.log file will not be copied once the maximum size is reached in the Disk space
reserved for network archive option.
Selecting this option can increase how long it takes to close a Roaming User Profile. It can also
limit the usefulness of the Acoustic and Language Model Optimizer because it reduces the
