Returning TTS resource state to INSERV
If connectivity with RealSpeak, Speechify, or SAPI-compliant Text-to-Speech (TTS) servers has been interrupted, you may need to set the resource state to INSERV to resume TTS services.
To set the resource state to INSERV:
- At the IR system command prompt, enter
sproxyadm -r TTSx -d
to show the resource state. For more information about the sproxyadm command, see sproxyadm command.
- If the resource state is FOOS, BROKEN, or INSERV, enter
sproxyadm -r TTSx -f INSERV
to change the resource state to INSERV. - Repeat Step 1 to check the resource state.
- If the resource state does not change to INSERV, you must restart the TTS service on the Windows NT server and repeat Steps 1 through 3 above.
- For a Speechify or RealSpeak engine, if the resource state does not change to INSERV, follow instructions in the Speechify or RealSpeak documentation to restart the TTS service, then repeat Steps 1 through 3 above.
- For a SAPI TTS engine, if the resource state does not change to INSERV, use the following steps to restart the Windows NT TTS service, then repeat Steps 1 through 3 above.
- On the Windows NT server, open the Control Panel window (Start > Settings > Control Panel).
- Select Administrative Tools.
- Select Component Services.
- The system displays the Component Services window.
