Third party VR dictation

The OnePacs Reporting third-party VR integration tool may be used on Windows or macOS systems to enable dictation into the OnePacs system using third party tools such as Fluency Direct^TM* (FD). This is an add-on which must be enabled per-group and per-user by OnePacs support.  

Users who have subscribed to this feature may use it as follows:

OnePacs prerequisites

-Update to the latest version of OnePacs Desktop for Windows or macOS

Fluency Direct

-For Fluency Direct users, install and set up the Fluency Direct application, according to instructions provided by OnePacs support and according to the FD documentation.

-Launch the Fluency Direct application.

OnePacs VR Preferences

Select "Third party VR integration" (or "OnePacs VR helper app") as the active Voice Recognition engine for reporting in user preferences.

(This option will not display if third party VR reporting is not enabled for your user account)

If this option does not show in your VR engine menu, please contact your group administrator for assistance.

Connect the VR application to OnePacs Reporting

Next, to establish a connection between OnePacs reporting and the FD application, open the dictation box/OnePacs Reporting window from the OnePacs Study Retriever menu.

-With the FD application active, in the OnePacs Study Retriever, select the "Open VR integration window" (or "Open dictation box") option:

This will open a window entitled "OnePacs Reporting", which serves to receive recognitions from Fluency Direct and forward them to the OnePacs reporting system.

Instructions regarding the use of the window display within the window when it is first opened. In the following screenshot, the OnePacs Reporting window is shown, with the Fluency Direct application control widget ("pill") located beneath the Reporting window:

After opening the Reporting window, it is necessary to direct text from the voice recognition application to the window to facilitate dictation of text into the OnePacs system.

This is accomplished with FD by activating the OnePacs Reporting window, and dictating the command "Set Target". When the OnePacs Reporting window has been successfully set as the recipient of text output from FD (the "Target"), at the top of the FD control widget ("pill"), a crosshairs symbol and the text "OnePacs Reporting" will be displayed, as follows:

At this point, FD is active as the VR solution for OnePacs Reporting.
