multiple network storage locations for your Master Roaming User files.

The

<username> are the names of the individual Master Roaming Users.

Changing the default location

1. Use the Browse for Folder dialog box to open a location where you want to store the master roaming user.

This is the location on the computer where changes made during a dictation session, such as corrections or

new acoustic data are stored before they are synchronized with the master roaming user.

2. If the directory does not currently exist, click Make New Folder and type a name for the new folder. The

new directory can have any name, but calling it something meaningful, such as Local Roaming User, will

make the folder easier to find in the future.

3. Click OK.

Step 6: Set the Roaming User options

The Administrative Settings dialog box also contains several options that affect how the Roaming User feature

works. You can select from among the following options to modify the behavior of a roaming user for each

Roaming User location:

Allow non-Roaming Users to be opened

Select this box to permit the user to open non-Roaming (local) users. Clear this option to prevent anyone

from dictating with a non-Roaming (local) user by accident.

Access network at user open/close only

Select this box to synchronize changes made during a Dragon NaturallySpeaking session from the Local

Roaming User to the Master Roaming User only when Dragon NaturallySpeaking opens or closes. Otherwise,

synchronization will occur each the user switches users, closes a user, or saves a user. For more information,

see Synchronizing Master and Local Roaming Users.

If you experience excessive network slowdowns,

checking this option may solve the problem by limiting the times the Local and Master Roaming users are

synchronized.

Ask before breaking locks on network users (recommended for UNC and mapped drives)

Select this box to keep the option of maintaining or breaking a network lock when opening a Roaming User.

Normally, network locks prevent anyone from opening a Roaming User at the same time someone else is

opening that user. While this process does not take a long time, network problems can cause a lock to

become "stuck" and not release when the open process is completed. When this happens, the next time

anyone tries to open that user, they will see a message informing them of the lock and giving them the

option of overriding it. If you do not wish anyone to be bothered by this message and always want to break

a network lock in this situation, you can clear this option to prevent the message from appearing. Because

the presence of a lock can indicate a problem that needs to be addressed, Nuance recommends that you

enable this option.

Note: This option is valid for users connecting to the Master Roaming User location using a mapped drive or

UNC drive. This option is not supported for users connecting over HTTP.

Set audio levels on each machine (recommended)

Select this box to run the "Check your audio settings" option from the Accuracy Assistant window before

each dictation session with a Roaming User. This includes the Volume Check and the microphone Quality
