Can you just hook up what you want?

Posted By: At Home MT on 2006-06-03
In Reply to: A KVM is what you need. 1 keyboard, 1 mouse, 1 monitor. - Yes.........

I would prefer to just hook up my external keyboard and mouse that I use for my regular computer but would prefer to use my laptop's monitor. I assume you can just plug in what you want to be able to switch back and forth,correct?


I have a nice large LCD monitor, but I have room for my laptop to sit right in front of at my desk so I would just as soon use that as it seems at a more comfortable level for my eyes for viewing. My big monitor is on a pedestal on an L-shaped (corner) desk and I think is actually up too high probably for someone short like myself. I don't think I can take the pedestal/stand off my monitor either as it wouldn't sit safely where my monitor is suppose to sit. :(


I have been using my laptop for my on-line job as it is faster than my regular computer anyway. I use my regular computer for my own account, unless traveling, then I will be doing my own account on it when we camp on week-ends when I have work to do. :D


TIA.

Lanier hook up

I purchased a Lanier 230 and come to find out it did not come with the required cables to hook this stupid thing up.  I got the base unit with large display, the power supply, the foot pedal, and the VTI but no cables.  Can someone tell me what cables I need and how to plug it in so it will run properly?  The only thing that came with it is the quick check brochure on how to program it.  Nothing is mentioned on hook up.


Thank you in advance everyone.  I would like to get to work on an account but don't even know how to get started.  I figured posting here would get a quicker response.  I don't want to go bald... hehe


 


Sony hook-over-the-ear (sm)
Okay, so I don't know what you really call them, but I have tried sooo many different types of earphones because I am kind of funny about what feels good on my head.
I found these little Sony earphones that have a hook that is kind of like a pair of eyeglasses that holds the sponge-covered speaker to the outside of your ear. They are on a "Y" wire, so there is nothing over the head, and you can use just one if you need an ear to hear what the kids are getting into.
I bought mine at Radio Shack for about $20.00 last year, but I've seen them other places (probably even Walmart), so I'm sure if you're interested, you can find them. Sorry I can't remember what they are called. If not, e-mail me and I will take a picture of them and send it to you.
Our equipment was free, no hook up fee. (nm)

Can you hook up two monitors to your computer? sm
That way, you can have the labs screen up all the time on the right screen while you are transcribing on the left screen. Then when you need to copy lab values, they are right there for you to read and type or copy and paste.
I am wireless and hook foot pedal into hub. nm

Normal people don't need to hook up from behind a monitor
To sink to this level of desperation someone (especially a man) has to be:

1. Married.
2. Ugly.
3. Socially retarded and unable to meet people the real way.

It's a new level of sad.
So totally not true. I hook up after talking with them on
the phone. When you work at home WHERE are you going to meet them? I am very much not a misfit, am outgoing, but when you live in a married world, it is difficult to meet single guys. There are lots of single guys in the same rut. Think what you will. I have met some nice men from the sites who were neither ugly, married OR socially retarded. One was a judge...yes...a judge! We still see each other.


does anyone know how to hook a Lanier model LX231(sm)
with the LX-231 adapter to the power supply and flat modem box?  I'm confused as to where all the cords go.  On the adapter there are three cords.  One says station (that I assume goes to the actual transcription box with the key pad on it), another cord that goes to the power supply and another that says it goes to the telephone line.  I'm not sure where all the cords go in relation to the modem.  Can anyone steer me in the right direction? TIA
but Janelle did take her left hand off the hook
DENYING that she took her hand off the hook on the volcano.  She most certainly did and the ENTIRE audience viewing at home saw that.  I hope Julie Chen shows Janelle all the footage of that. 
to hook 2 computers to cable internet do ?
you need a router and a KVM switch - what else?  Will this cause problems?
Need to hook up a USB pedal to RealPlayer. I'm sure this has been addressed before. sm
I have a test wave file I need to play.  It runs fine from my desktop, but I can't get the pedal to work.  I have an Infinity In-USB-1 I just plugged into the hard drive, but it will not play the file.  Will this work wtih RealPlayer?  TIA.
mine is a Belkin - easy to hook up
think I paid about 35.00 but it is a little white button that you toggle back and forth.  Great little thing.  I spent forever rolling chair back and forth between computers.  Got it at Staples.
I'll let you off the hook since you're also a Mustang lover.
I just like the '67s and '68s better because they're a little bigger and more rounded in the body style than the earlier years.  I dreamt of owning a Mustang for 20 years before I got one.
Some new puters don't have 9- or 15-pin ports anymore. You'd need a USB adapter to hook one up

Oh and don't you love the "WOW, you work from home?? HEY! I can type - hook me up!" sm
That burns my hiney more than anything else. Working from home is NOT a piece of cake. I can relate to those who think since we work from home we can just get up anytime. I don't know how many times I have tried to explain that if I were working in a "traditional" office, that they wouldn't just walk in, call, etc. etc. but I don't think anybody will ever really get that our time is money, literally.
I use my c-phone whenever we travel. You can hook it directly into your room phone. Be sure and as

You plug it into an outlet, plug in the phone cord, hook up the
footpedal and the headset and it works.
