In Reply to: Footpedal question please - speak in slow sentences plz...
I had that problem a long time ago. For some reason, I had to use my media player for my voice files and the pedal would not work. I had to use my cursor to FF, REV, etc. It was a major pain in the backside. If someone knows how to fix your problem, I would like to know too in case it happens again. Good Luck.

Look under Settings, I think. Your pedal might be in the wrong port. nm

wrong, wrong, wrong. work is being outsourced because of $. period. not because of unqualified MTs

This would be just a "regular" 3-pedal pedal and not the Dictaphone pedal. nm

I typed a report on the wrong patient as the doc keyed in the wrong info, SM
He later said the correct patient's name and I SWEAR to this day I made the changes but somehow the report when through without the correct patient and changes made. I still remember that incident.
You can buy just the Start/Stop software w/o the pedal if you're able to use your pedal as a VEC

Bringing up ExpressScribe pedal question again. Does anyone have 9-pin Infinity pedal on a USB?
tia
Is there ONE pedal I can buy that will work with ALL platforms? And where do I shop for a pedal?

A wave pedal is a foot pedal that connects to either
serial port, game port, or USB depending on the software needed with it. You have to download the work via the internet and most companies still require high-speed internet, though some allow dial-up or satellite. A pedal costs about $70, though can find on e-bay cheaper. You can download ExpressScribe for free to use with the foot pedal unless the company requires a different software program.
Fantasia wrong??? Haven't seen the OP's CD, couldn't have been too wrong.

wav pedal is a foot pedal that plugs into your
computer so you can transcribe wav files. There are many other formats such as DSS, but they are all digital voice files.
I don't think brand of foot pedal is important, but need to know if it is game port, serial port, or USB and how many pins it has. The majority of them are made by Infinity in some foreign country, but sold by many companies.
WAV pedal vs. USB port foot pedal
PLEASE HELP! Are wav pedals and USB port foot pedals one in the same? I've only transcribed from audio tapes, and all this is new to me. Thank you for your help.
A wav pedal is just a generic term for a pedal used to
play voice files you have on your computer. You can get them on the equipment board here, e-bay, or you can Google and get lots of other places. Some pedals are fairly generic and can play multiple "wav" types, but some only work with certain software. You can have a serial port connection, a game port connection, or a USB connection.
If you do not already have a job that you need a pedal for I'd suggest waiting because you don't know which kind you will use. If you need it for testing you can download ExpressScribe for free and use the function keys to test.
I also have a USB foot pedal. Do most companies use the USB pedal or SM
will I need a 9-pin or a 15-pin. Also, which transcription software for playing back audio files is the best? I've used one that was a fee download, I think it was called Bytescribe or somethingl ike that. Does that work for most all files or should I look into purchasing something like Start/Stop or GearPlayer?
Oh and does anyone know where I can get Microsoft Word or Office Suite for a reasonable (I'd say cheap, but cheap usually means bootleg) price?
Sorry to ask so many questions, but it's been a while since I've worked for a national. Before the hopsital job I'm being laid off from, I worked in the office at a hospital. So I've been out of the loop so to speak.
Thanks guys.
It's about morality - not censorship! Right is right and wrong is wrong!

Foot pedal? Going from VXP to applying for other companies. What foot pedal should I get that woul
I need one even just to test so it seems. Thanks for the input!
INCRE pedal vs. wav pedal
anyone know if express scribe works with the INCRE pedal? I have an infinity pedal which I use for current job, but a possible second job says I need the INCRE, so I am wondering if my current job can be supported with this new pedal. Any info appreciated
As far as it being wrong, well who defines right and wrong? On the
other hand, what if he were doing the same thing? How would you feel? I think that should answer your question.
You SUPPOSE it was wrong! It was way wrong.

Is it the same pedal that MQ uses for DQS? If so
I have an extra. Not sure if they're the same though.
Pedal
I am slowly weaning my clients off tapes to digit, has anyone used the Gear Player pedal and is it compatible with most digital files. I am going to be advertising for more digital accounts and so don't want to buy one that just works with Olympus, Sony, etc. Have a friend who uses the Gear Player and loves it but would appreciate more info if anyone has it. Thanks Patti
WAV pedal
I have a brand new WAV pedal still in box that I just needed to take a test on for a certain company. I am looking to sell it, cheap. I used it for approximately 1 hour to transcribe 5 test exams. Let me know if you are interested.
Wav Pedal
I have an Infinity wav pedal and it has worked with multiple applications. DocQscribe, EMDAT, Express Scribe. As a matter of fact I have this 1 pedal for all 3 programs. It knows which program I have open and works. Anyway, very happy with Infinity and the price was under $100!!
wav pedal
Don't feel bad; I'm even DUMBER!! What is a wav pedal? I have used a C-phone with a pedal, and I am currently using a "dictation platform" or something to that affect (I don't understand some of the terminology when it comes to dictation equipment). So I would be interested in the answer to this question too.
I have the pedal
What else do I need? He has finally sent me some files, but they're playing just like a regular audio file when I open them. Geesh! He has me so upset at this point. I use a WAV files with another doc and we have none of these problems. I download his files, push the foot pedal and transcribe, but the doc with his new toy is sending files nothing even remotely similar to those files.
pedal
I don't think Olympus will, but my Infinity 9-pin works with it.
WAV pedal
I am curious about this Express SCribe you are all talking about. My doctor asked me to check out WAV pedal so we can go tapeless so that is the program etc we are looking at through Medword.com. My cost is $190 for pedal and software. Is there a better and cheaper way of doing this? Another question, I am not understanding how to post questions on these boards/website. Can someone tell me how to do it? TIA
You can get a pedal for under $70.00
WAV pedal
My doctor wanted to go online, so we researched WAV pedal. He bought it off ebay and sent me what I load onto my computer. I was fortunate to have someone that comes to visit periodically that new how to set things up for me. However, I know nothing about what happens on his end. Can someone tell me if he too has a special program to load on his computer or does he just get some type of recorder with memory card and put that card into his computer (like a digital camera, I assume - don't have one of those either), and then sends it to me by e-mail. I do not have high speed, just regular dial up. It takes time to download, but comes across sharp and clear. When I am done, I simply e-mail it back to him. However, I have mentioned a couple of times about an encryption program, and he has ignored my questions about it, so am assuming he does not want to mess with it. I understand they can be very confusing. Any info on this, let me know as I would like to add another client, but don't know how it all works so that I can do that.
WAV pedal know how
Hello.
I just got the WAV pedal and cannot figure how to work it. I got it hooked up right, just can't get it to play. The company wants me to pay for tech support. I'm not ignorant, I work presently for a doctor and soon to work for a company online, so I hope I get the info I need too.
Good luck,

wav pedal (sm)
i ended up purchasing the olympus wav pedal for $40.00 off transcriptiongear.com. no software to load. had a USB plug which was easy to just plug in and go. works great.
Pedal?
I use an IN-DB9 but it isn't a USB, is that what you have with a USB? Where did you get it? I would LOVE to use my laptop instead of my other PC.
wav pedal
Does anyone know where I can purchase a wav pedal? Also, what is the difference between that and a regular pedal?
USB pedal
I use my S/S 9-pin serial pedal with my laptop. The USB cable I bought came from Radio Shack and had its own driver I had to install.
After installing the driver for the cable, you can plug in the foot pedal. You will need to go in to S/S under tools and change the COM port to 6, I believe. It could be COM 7....I cannot remember.
wav pedal
I am in the process of buying a wav pedal. Do you have to purchase software to go with the pedal? I want to test with a company that requires a wav pedal and when I asked which type their response was any type of wav pedal.
pedal
I have an infinity USB port as well. Works for me. There are some company softwares that will only work with pins but it depends on which type. If it was me I would definitely go USB.
Does your pedal have
a place to hook your keyboard to it. I was under the impression that the Emdat pedals hooked to the computer and the keyboard hooked to the pedal. Maybe that is just the PS/2 models and the USB are just plug and play??? I am so confused!
I am going to call about the pedal in the morning and see what they say. I will email you if they say I can get a USB, as I may want to purchase yours.
wav pedal
I changed to a new computer and downloaded by wav pedal but it is not working. i do believe i must have to change some settings but how? Any ideas??
Wav pedal
Try add/delete hardware to make sure your computer is recognizing the pedal.
Click on icon, may be a a right click, for settings and options - I am just working from memory, but the pedal software will include a place to set which side of the pedal makes it reverse, fast forward, etc. Once you get into here, if the pedal has been added and recognized by your computer, you can tweak how it's working.
Finally, if it is not a new pedal, or the cord was all twisted tightly in the package, gently move the cord that connects the pedal to the computer - gently check it where it enters/exits the foot pedal itself - to see if it might have been bent - this has happened to me.
Wav Pedal
I just upgraded to Vista. I had to upgrade my Bytescribe Wav pedal as well. Needed the latest software version.
Did you buy this used? Maybe it's not the pedal
s
You will probably need to buy a USB pedal.
The PEDAL
Regarding the pedal, I had to purchase one recently and found a good deal on a refurbished one here:
http://dictran.com/refurbished-dictaphone.html#d148519
Look at the bottom of the page on that website.
Now, there is also an adapter that is necessary. Here is another link that includes foot pedals as well as adapters:

USB pedal
I believe the pedal I'm using now is a USB Infinity pedal. Will this work in Express Scribe with the 4.91 InScribe?
pedal
Infinity pedals usually work most places. Mine has worked with everything except Dictaphone platform. You should not need software just a USB pedal unless the company specifies a different kind. I just plug the headphones to the speakers. Good luck!
pedal
I have an infinity but on the wizard it says there is a switch on the bottom, so that you can program it, but I don't see one. Any idea where it is?
Pedal
Seems like a software issue, so it doesn't sound like there's anything you can do on your own.
Pedal Might Be Going Bad?
Hello,
I've had a Bytescribe pedal for about seven years now. I think it might be "going bad." I have two questions. Has anyone experienced your pedal taking a few seconds to play after you've pressed play, like a lag? It also seems to go back further than I have it set for rewind when I take my foot off. These are new happenings with this pedal, so I'm wondering if this is a sign that it might be time to get a new one.
Next question is can I use Express Scribe with this pedal that I have now, and does any have any opinions on Express Scribe? If I do have to buy another pedal, I don't have to buy a specific pedal as long as I have the correct software to play the files, is this right? There are so many software and pedal options out there, and money is tight, so I don't want to leap on something and it not be what I need. I also don't want my pedal to break down in the middle of working.
Thank you in advance!
you are wrong
it is harder to prosecute someone in a murder trial w/o a body, but not impossible. It is a case that would be based on circumstantial evidence. Perfectly legal and done before.
YOU TOOK THAT UP WRONG
I have lectured her. She knows we are against it. My husband and I do not drink at all. What I was saying is she can sit here and tell me she is not drinking which she has said she does not but I know better. I know every kid drinks at collegea and no I don't like it. I know her room mate drinks and my daughter has told me. There is nothing I can do about it if she is at college 100 miles away. She clains she does not drink. She has been told she has to pay the consequences if something happens. I tell her not to drink but if she does it won't be my fault because she should know better. I can lecture her at home by not allowing it in my home. I know a few of her home friends drink and I have told her if the parents ask me if it is so I will not lie. Obviously you don't have teenagers. Also Natalie's parents could have lectured her to about drinking but obviously she did it anyway.
WRONG AGAIN
to 'study and show thyself approved...rightly dividing the word of Truth'.
Well, I don't think you are doing anything wrong ...
I've been with these companies 3-1/2 and 2-1/2 years.
Do you know which accounts at your company are large or have a lot of overtime? I would ask to be put onto a super large hospital account as a primary. Being a large hospital account and/or overtime requirements will tell you how much work is usually there.
I have been very fortunate on my accounts but I asked for large hospital accounts up front for that very reason....????
