In Reply to: The VXP pedal is proprietory - $600+ nm - Not OP
just a few months ago for $70.00 that is brand new. It is an Infinity pedal that has been configured to be used with VXP. It is also referred to as DVI, same software just different name. I have been using it for 5 years and have had 3 foot pedals, none of which cost more than $70.00.

You can buy just the Start/Stop software w/o the pedal if you're able to use your pedal as a VEC

Ever bought OEM CD only software? (sm)
 I use Word, but need Word Perfect for one account only. Any pros or cons to purchasing OEM CD only software or do I need to bite the bullet. It's my understanding you cannot buy Word Perfect alone without buying the suite.
Any comments will be appreciated
Turbo Tax on the internet offers all this and no software has to be bought
I have used it for years and you save your whole return at the Turbo Tax site. I love it.
Did anyone ever have any problems when you bought a new computer with your foot pedal not
working with the DQS program.
What pedal software?
Express Scribe has a wizard that will help you get your pedal to work with their program. There is not a separate software program for the pedal.
Open Express Scribe, choose Settings, Playback and Control. Make sure the box for footpedal playback control is checked. In the Port box, make a selection based on the type of pedal you have (USB, serial port, etc.) In the Pedals box, choose 3-pedal (forward, back, play). Click on the Footpedal Control Wizard Setup and use that to help set up the pedal. If it doesn't work the first time, try making a different selection in the Port box until you find one that will work.
Bought Infinity foot pedal 9 pin and works with Expresscribe.
Specifically what foot pedal did you buy and why can't Expresscribe help you if you bought it from them?
Do you pay for the wave pedal and software? I don't.
I rent the computer with the pedal and everything for $50 a month.
I have never spent any money on the software -- MQ has provided it free.
They reimburse my DSL 100% every month. When I hooked up to it, it only cost me $12.95 and they reimbursed that as well.
I can makeup time I lost to bad weather. I don't like it, it's not my first choice, but I certainly don't expect them to PAY me just because there is a storm and it is safest not to have the system plugged into power. Even when I worked in a local hospital on an hourly basis, in bad weather we were off the computers...but I also was available for that hourly rate to file and do other things they wanted. I'm not doing that for MQ when I'm able to type for that reason so they don't owe me anything but the chance to make it up or forfeit any action if it caused me to miss my production.
I'm really surprised though, if you are having to pay extra for your pedal and software, etc. Sorry to hear that.
The pedal isn't the issue, it is the software.
ExpressScribe is free and works with most of the formats, but not sure all of them. Start/Stop also works with the majority of formats, as does Bytescribe. You can buy a pedal from e-bay, the equipment board here, or just about any transcription equipment company that will work with ExpressScribe.
Does anyone know of a trial WAV pedal software
q
foot pedal software..HELP
I have an Infinity foot pedal with USB port, but no software to go with it. When I bought the thing, did not realize software was not included with the pedal as job I ordered for fell through in the interim. I now went to use the pedal and realize there is no software to put into my computer so the foot pedal is recognized.
ANY HELP...suggestions...please.

What are do you mean? Foot pedal, software, ??????

Again, it is in the software, not the foot pedal.
The Express Scribe program will play many file types, among them .wav and .dss. If your foot pedal does not work, the problem is either the software you're using or the foot pedal configuration. Express Scribe does have a foot pedal set up wizard to help you with that process. Express Scribe is a free download.
Have you tried uninstalling and then reinstalling your pedal software? Sometimes it not enough to
do a "repair." You have to completely remove it, reboot your PC, and then start from scratch.
Also, is your dog all right? I wondering if the poor thing was electrocuted? My cat chewed on the cord to my head set. Thankfully, didn't chew all the way through, but took the plastic off, exposing some wires. My husband patched it up with some electrical tape and it's working so far, but I think I'm going to be buying a new headset!
Those darn pets! They're as bad as the kids wanting mommy's attention! 
Good Luck!
What software are you using with the foot pedal and for transcription? Sm
Express Scribe, Bytescribe Wav Player, etc.???? There should be something under options/settings for selecting USB with these software programs.
I used their software/foot pedal. It is just a wave
file program.
You will need wav player software on your PC for your pedal to play
files. You can download Express Scribe for free and it works really well. Then you will need your clients to use digital recorders to record their dictation. The dictation can then be saved to a jump drive, disk, etc. or uploaded to an FTP site that you maintain and you will then be able to download the files from the FTP site to your PC and transcribe them.
Free Foot Pedal Software
I thought that there might be some other people out there that would appreciate a link to a free foot pedal control application. Check it out:
PedalWare - http://www.altoedge.com/pedalware/index.html
Most software works with a USB pedal with the exception of a very few.

Have you set the foot pedal up in your software. Not doing so can be a major factor in why SM
won't work. I know lots of people who just plugged the foot pedal into the computer but never set it up in the software and they had the same problems that you are having.
"wav" pedal is a generic term. Some software is
proprietary and requires a specific "wav" pedal. Download ExpressScribe for free (google for URL). You can open one of your completed files using ExpressScribe and if it plays okay then your pedal will work, unless of course you get a job that may use a proprietary software and then it may or may not work.
Infinity USB pedal and Express Scribe software. sm
You may need to install an additional file to play .dss files.
This setup works for me.
I think your Infinity foot pedal has iNet software
set up so it will not play with Express Scribe (I had the same problem). I ended up buying a new Infinity foot pedal off ebay for $65 including shipping and it works fine on Express Scribe and WinScribe. Good luck!
Is there a quick way to get WavPedal software? I have a new computer and the foot pedal, but...sm
no software. A company is asking for it to test.

Anybody know of any free foot pedal/transcription software besides Express Scribe? TIA. nm

A WAV pedal controls playback of voice files. You need a software program through which to play the
The term "WAV pedal" has become a generic term. The software that you use will determine the file type(s) that you are able to play on your computer. You use either a pedal or hot keys (Fkeys) to control that playback. As stated below, Express Scribe is one such software program and it is free. It can be found by clicking on the link below.
The price of gasoline is reflected in the price of goods. Having said that, one item
higher, MOMENTARILY, than Walmart, does not really make a case against Walmart. You want to make Walmart a bad guy because they don't have a shopper out there matching the grocery stores' price so be it. But MOST people I know shop at Walmart for lower groceries prices AS A WHOLE, and that is what makes Walmart successful. So buy your cheaper Bounty towels at your grocery store if that makes you happy. Your grocery store HAS TO MAKE MONEY and they will get you on something else. It is the retail law. Walmart will not be successful with higher prices than the grocery store. They aim to succeed. They have been sucessful in undercutting other stores. Your Bounty towels will not bring down the Walmart empire but it may cause you to shop at your grocery store where they will charge you more on other items to stay in business. Quit the knee-jerk responses. If you don't like Walmart and don't want to shop there that's all well and good. If you don't shop there because of Bounty towels, well that's just crazy.

She has SOME experience with transcribing psychological reports, but she does require terminology training in order to do other fields of medicine.

I bought a wedge at Michael's for about 59 cents. Bought one for my SM
Lanier station so I could see the display and one for my keyboard.
I'm willing to compromise. Is there a company that only includes(sm)
basic patient info in the headers and footers and does not include all of the headings as a template? What I've found is that these two companies have gone from originally just basic patient info in the header footer (which I don't expect to get paid for) to basically making the entire report a template and we're just basically filling in the blanks and hunting and pecking for the headings. This, I feel, is just not right. The excuse being used is that "it saves us from having to type that information." It would actually be quicker for us to type it - even without an Expander - than to be doing it this way.

I have one (USB) I am selling for $85 (this includes shipping)
when I bought it I was told to get USB. I don't even know if it comes in PS/2 or not. It does not matter what your keyboard it as far as I know. My keyboard is a wireless with an transmitter plugged in at the PS/2 port. Ask the MTSO which you should buy and you should have your answer if you are worried. But if you want mine I take PayPal and M.O. --- it is basically brand new, used for about 2 hours, have original box too. But is is a IN-PI-USB. See my note on the Classified's page.

Read the manual again on how to use Includes.
My single words on the phrases side are in a separate glossary.

nursing shortage includes nurses for instructors...sm
you can't teach nursing classes without nurses to teach the classes - that's part of the shortage and part of the reason why the shortage continues. Also more nurses are going for the bachelor's degree (4 years vs. 2 years) and that is extending the time before they are out in the work force.

Yeah, you're right. Who cares who licenses your software? Heck, I use all pirated software anyw

Does this seem fair? To charge .16 per line - includes printed reports, copies on disk for one year
and delivery. I do travel twice a week to this office. Plus, at times I will fax or email the reports free of charge. I live in Southern California in an upscale area.
Thanks again!
If u need server software, try guild ftp. If just user software
then try cuteftp, coffeecupftp, or wsftp. They don't charge a line rate and I believe guildftp server software is still free.
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.
Norton Internet Security does this. Costs the same as Norton AV and includes it.
has a user list, which you, as administrator, can have password protected so users cannot change the list. What we do is put on sites that we approve. Anything else has to be done on the laptop in view...
You can buy Internet Security every year anytime from Jan through April tax time, and get rebates. Just as cheap as NAV and includes it, as I said.
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.
