Dragon Client Installation Guide
Associating Dragon clients with the Nuance
Management Center server or Local Authenticator
To allow Dragon clients to work with Nuance Management Center, you must enable Nuance
Management Center/NMS mode on each client. You can set up the connection during your initial
installation (for more information, see “Initial installation” on page 24) or follow the steps below to
manually enable Nuance Management Center/NMS mode.
Note: For information on installing and configuring NMC servers, see the Nuance Management
Center Server Installation and Configuration Guide.
1. Open Dragon if it is not already running.
2. From the DragonBar, select Tools>Administrative Settings.
3. If a warning dialog appears, click Proceed.
Your operating system may require you to enter your user name and password.
4. Click the NMS Settings tab.
5. Select the Enable NMS check box.
6.
In the Server field, enter one of the following:
l If you are using the Nuance-hosted NMC server in the cloud with native NMC
authentication, enter the address of the cloud server. You should have received this
address in your Welcome email from Nuance.
l If you are using the Nuance-hosted NMC server in the cloud with Active Directory
single sign-on authentication, enter the address of the server on which the Local
Authenticator is installed.
l If you are using your own NMC server on premise, enter the address of your NMC
server.
7. Click the appropriate radio button in the Login Options field.
l Select Provide a login name and password if you are using native Nuance
Management Center authentication.

Directory single sign-on authentication.
8. Click Apply, and then click OK.
When the Dragon client is connected to the NMC server, users can log in to the user account that an
administrator has created in the NMC console.
If the user has no existing profile, the New User Wizard appears after login.
