Dragon Medical One command line

Starting Dragon Medical One from the command line

You can configure the standalone Dragon Medical One package so that your users don't need to log on separately to the app. By starting Dragon Medical One with the mandatory parameters specified, the logon dialog box is not displayed and any logged on user is automatically logged off.

Example:

Dr. Chris Smith speaks with an American English accent, works in the field of general medicine and records using a SpeechMike III.

SoD.exe -user "chrissmith" -lang "en-US" -topic "GeneralMedicine" -mic "SpeechMike III"

When Dr. Smith logs on to a PC, Dragon Medical One is available, in the notification area, with their preferred settings applied.

Parameters:

• user

  The speech recognition user profile name.

  This parameter is mandatory; you must specify the user before any of the other parameters are applied.

  If trusted authentication is enabled, this parameter is ignored.

• lang

  The speech recognition language. This parameter is optional.

  Specify the language as an IETF language tag. For more information, see: Supported languages.

  If only one language is specified in the configuration file and this parameter isn't set, this language is selected automatically and Dragon Medical One starts without displaying the logon dialog box.

  If more than one language is specified in the configuration file and this parameter isn't set, Dragon Medical One starts without displaying the logon dialog box and uses the language the user last logged on with. If the user hasn't logged on successfully before, or if the language the user last logged on with is no longer available, the logon dialog box is displayed and the user must select a language manually.

• topic

  The speech recognition topic (specialty). For a list of available topic names, see: Configuring the speech recognition topic.

  If only one topic is specified in the configuration file and this parameter isn't set, this topic is selected automatically and Dragon Medical One starts without displaying the logon dialog box.

  If more than one topic is specified in the configuration file and this parameter isn't set, Dragon Medical One starts without displaying the logon dialog box and uses the topic the user last logged on with. If the user hasn't logged on successfully before, or if the topic the user last logged on with is no longer available, the logon dialog box is displayed and the user must select a topic manually.

• mic

  The microphone identifier.

  This parameter is mandatory. If you don't know the exact microphone identifier, you can specify part of the name, for example, "SpeechMike". If only one connected microphone contains the specified string in its name, this microphone is used. If no connected microphone or more than one connected microphone contains the specified string in its name, the logon dialog box is displayed and the user must select a microphone.

  If you have configured a list of allowed microphones, the mic parameter is optional. Dragon Medical One goes through the allowed microphones, in the order that you listed them, and uses the first specified microphone it finds that is connected. If you specify the mic parameter, the specified microphone must be included in the list of allowed microphones.

• password

  The user's password.

  If trusted authentication is enabled, this parameter is ignored.

• nologo

  Disables the splash screen.

• config

  The path to the XML file containing custom configuration settings. For more information, see: Configuring Dragon Medical One.
