swiep_suppress_barge_in_time

Disables barge-in briefly at the beginning of a prompt.

Value

Integer: 0–INT_MAX (milliseconds)

Default

0 (no delay)

By default, the recognizer listens for an utterance as soon as a prompt begins to play.

How to set

Shown in precedence order (see Rules of parameter precedence):

Set in the browser, using the Vendor-Specific-Parameters header in a RECOGNIZE or SET-PARAMS request.

In Management Station set on the Nuance recognition service. If not using Management Station, set in a Recognizer configuration file (User-nrsxx.xml).

Usage

Occasionally used when tuning an application to avoid accidental barge-in.

This parameter is relevant when bargein is enabled. It defines a time period at the beginning of a prompt to disable the barge-in feature. Callers cannot interrupt the prompt during this time.

This parameter delays the recognizer’s listening for speech when a prompt begins to play. This parameter is only active while a prompt is playing. If the prompt completes before the timer expires, the recognizer begins listening.

Browsers usually set this parameter in a RECOGNIZE request, and the parameter automatically reverts to the previous value after the recognition event. Using this technique lets you suppress barge-in for different durations for different prompts. (Often, developers set longer durations for initial application prompts.) Alternatively, browsers can use the SET-PARAMS method. See Configuring Recognizer with the browser.
