Server
Use the following task list to install and configure voice-recognition software on a separate 
voice-recognition server. The tasks reference detailed instructions in the Cisco
 Unity installation guide

and configuring a voice-recognition server for a new Cisco
 Unity system. If you are adding a 
voice-recognition server to an existing Cisco
 Unity system, see the “Adding Voice Recognition” section 
in the “Adding Features to the Cisco
 Unity 5.x System” chapter in the applicable Reconfiguration and 
Upgrade Guide for Cisco
 Unity at 
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps2237/prod_installation_guides_list.html.
1. Place the voice-recognition server in a dry, cool area that is free of dust and that is near a network 
connection. 
2. Attach any supported peripheral devices to the server. Follow the manufacturer installation and test 
instructions.
