Configuring Performance Options

Nuance Speech Recognition, Verifier, and Vocalizer software works best when the server is set to give the best performance to programs rather than background services.

In programs mode, the Windows operating system provides more frequent but smaller time slices during thread switching. In background services mode, the Windows operating system provides longer and less frequent time slices. Therefore, if you run Windows with background services mode, Vocera badges may experience choppy audio.

To set Windows performance options for the Vocera Voice Server, perform the following steps:

  1. Choose Start >Settings >>Control Panel>System.
    The System Properties dialog box appears.
  2. Click Advanced.
  3. Under Performance, click Settings.
    The Performance Options dialog box appears.
  4. Click the Advanced tab.
  5. In the Processor Scheduling box, click Programs.
    Making this selection provides more processor resources to the Vocera Voice Server instead of resources going to background services.
  6. Under Memory Usage, click Programs.
    Making this selection provides more system memory to the Vocera Voice Server instead of the system cache.
  7. Click OK.
    A dialog box with the information to restart the computer for the changes to take effect is displayed.
  8. Click OK.
    The dialog box is closed
  9. In the Performance box, click OK.
  10. In the System Properties box, click OK.
  11. Restart the computer.
