This configuration has worked well for us. Annette

I will include the pertinent entries in my JFW.INI file because I think that will be more clear than the abstract explanation as how to do this: [Synthesizers] Synth1Name=accentsa Synth1LongName=Accent SA Synth1Port=Com1:9600,n,8,1,x Synth1Driver=accentsa Synth2Name=eloq Synth2LongName=Eloquence for JAWS Synth2Driver=eloq Synth3Name=eloqUSB Synth3LongName=Eloquence via USB for JAWS Synth3Driver=eloq Synth3Port=USB Audio Device Note that the Synth#Driver=eloq entry for both the standard Eloquence and via the secondary audio device are identical; this is because eloq is the program that will run regardless of which device is in use. Also note that the Synth#Port for the entries deploying the secondary audio device is utilized and should be the exact name identified from the "Audio" tab of the Control-Panel/Sounds&Multi_media. This will be identified from the "Preferred Device" list and must match that list entry exactly. The "Synth#Longname=__________" can be anything you like, but it would be helpful if it reflects the synthesizer and indicates that it may be the primary or secondary audio device -- this entry is where the list of synthesizers comes from when going into the JAWS Languages/Change-Synthesizer menu. The "Synth#Name=______" entry is also quite open for whatever you like to use, but remember that this value will be used in any JAWS shortcut that will instruct JAWS which synthesizer to use. For example, the "Start JAWS with Eloquence" item in the JAWS sub-menu calls for JAWS to run with the "/seloq" switch in force. In other words, if you want to tell JAWS to run with a specific synthsizer from launch you use the "/s" switch and the value of the "Synth#Name=" entry for that particular synthesizer. If you have any further questions please feel free to ask.
