Cphone
Is this phone still available? My daughter needs one. Are there any others out there today?
cphone
All four that I have owned I have used the end button on the left side, bottom row, for headphones.  I hit speaker,  dial in, and when it connects I just hit that button and it goes to headphones and it no longer is audible from the speaker.  Maybe they were all preprogrammed, but they all worked the same. 
Cphone
I had worked using a CPhone for my first 5 years in this field. When i went to work for a national i was nothing but confused. There are several posted on the classified board here for under 200... And they go for a lot more than that new. It is an adjustment no matter what new thing u are trying to get used to.. The biggest thing is that the headphones .. The ones you use for the PC won’t work as the headset port is a two-pin thing...
Cphone
It is a dictaphone unit.  It also doubles as a telephone.  Kinda bulky and ugly, but works great.  You use it like a phone, to dial into the dictation line, and retrieve dictation from accounts who are not accessed through the net lines.  It has attached ear phones, or in my case, ear buds.  Good luck! 
Cphone
Actually the person who trained me told me to do this.  Thanks for your help.
Need to purchase cphone
Help!  I am trying to get started transcribing at home and I have work to do but I need advice on what type of transcribing phone to purchase.  I have been instructed by my current employer to by a cphone that dials into an automated system to retreive my work.  Please, any advice or if anyone has one for sale.  The cheaper the better or I will buy used.  Thanks.
can anyone explain to me what a cphone is?
I've only ever worked for MQ and I have no idea what a C-phone is. Is it a piece of equipment or software or both?
Cphone questions
I am supposed to be starting an acct that uses a Cphone and am wondering how this works.  To those who use a Cphone how does this differ from signing in and transcribing via online?  Also I'm wondering about if you are able to reject a dictated job on cphone if it is a dictator you can't transcribe?  On the acct I'm on now there is a doctor I simply can not transcribe no matter how hard I try and no matter how long I try so I can just reject his dictation and it goes back into the system for someone else and I'm wondering if the same thing will work with Cphone?  Thanks, Wanda
Cphone manual
I emailed you re: above.
SOS-familiar w/Cphone DA-127D?

  


    It's crunch time - I am using TranscriptionGear Model DA-127D for first time (replacement after demise of Dictaphone C-phone) and do not have instruction manual.  I've navigated through a report and need help with the following:  Everytime I take my foot off the pedal, I get the recorded "To sign off you must be at the end of the report."    Then, when I actually got to the end of the report, it signed off automatically with the foot pedal.    I must sign reports off manually on this acct.     Any help would be greatly appreciated.  TIA.


Question about Cphone headset?
I have the stethoscope style #AL-60DP but where the wire hooks to the stethoscope part it won't stay together and I could barely hear out of them.  Is there something I'm not doing right or are they broke?  Thanks!
Cphone and foot pedal
Actually, my foot pedal plugs into the C-phone, not the computer, but all this junk is very confusing, isn't it?

Question for Lanier/Cphone users...please...

I have a Lanier LX219 that I just hooked up. I have it all programmed (I believe) correctly. I am having a problem with the pedal though. I can play the dictation but I cannot for the life of me figure out the rewind or fast forward on the pedal. It just beeps at me. Do I have something programmed wrong? Does anyone know what I have done wrong? Thanks for any advice.

I am beginning a transcription job for an allergist on Monday and they are looking to me for advice on what type of transcriber to buy and where to purchase the machine.  Since it has been awhile since I have transcribed, I would like some assistance.  I live in TX. Thanks~Sherry


RE: Dictaphone
I have been hearing a lot of bad things about Dictaphone company.  Just wondering if any of you have had any bad dealings with them, maintenance, getting in contact with somebody, etc.. I hear bad from everybody except Dictaphone people.
dictaphone
Try transcriptiongear.com or executive communications. I have gotten lanier stuff from executive. I sold my Dictaphone last year for 235.00 it was in pristine condition. Got my lanier/with power box from e-bay.
Dictaphone VR
Has anyone out there edited Dictaphone VR?  Considering a job, but not sure if I could make more than I make typing.  Thanks.
Dictaphone VR
I've been doing Dictaphone
VR for nearly 3 years now. My speed has increaded about 40%. I cannot comment on increased income, as we are paid hourly whether we do VR or straight typing. But, I must add I really enjoy it. I'm not sure I could go back to typing every report ever again.
Dictaphone VR
What do you mean by Dictaphone VR?  I have VR installed but haven't had the time or patience to start using it.  Is there a way to connect the Dictaphone to the computer so you don't have to listen, say it, etc?
Dictaphone
I have a Dictaphone C phone that plugs into my phone line and does work with the cable phone. I live in the Northeast and have that all-in-one package for cable, phone and TV, and the Dictaphone has worked fine. I have long distance unlimited which helps too in case the number you have to dial isn't local.
Using Dictaphone
How easy/difficult is it to use dictaphone?  Is it user friendly or a pain in the rear. Thanks!!
RE: Dictaphone
Does anybody out there know who to contact for Dictaphone C-phone that needs fixing.
Dictaphone
Please, does anyone know where to get a Dictaphone C-phone fixed.  Mine quit.  I can call in and they answer, but when I press the button, it disconnects and operator comes on and says, if you want to make a call, hang up and dial again.  Have tried everything.  It was raining, but no big storm, just wind blowing, but don't know if it was lightening or not. I contacted Dictaphone and they have flat rate of $301 plus tax to fix it.
Dictaphone
Yikes!  We used to have a guy come to our office to fix but I live in Washington state.  Sorry I cannot help further.  I have a Dictaphone for sale for $250 if you need one.
dictaphone help
I am in need of help figuring out how to transcribe remotely from a dictaphone c-phone calling into a dictaphone straight talk system. 
Dictaphone EXT

THE BEST SYSTEM TO WORK ON TO DATE - Simple, friendly, no fuss.


The speech part is great also, but is only good if the person responsible for training it does their job . If it is not tweaked everyday, it is worthless.  So the added theroy of the system is only as good as the operator (or in this case, the montioring person).


need Dictaphone help
I have a Dictaphone Straight Talk that suddenly stopped answering the phone when my client calls.  Dictaphone won't service this model anymore and the computer repair shop I went to didn't know how.  I only have one client using this system and don't want to spend to much money replacing or repairing it.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!
RE: Dictaphone
Dictaphone does not show printout, but tells you the minutes. If you push button, think #6, it tells you how much time you have left if programmed for that.
Dictaphone Help!!!!please!!!!

I am on the road right now and trying to work from a family members home on my laptop, however my 2-yo knocked my dictaphone off the desk and now although I can get a dial tone I cannot get any of the keys to work!!!!!


Anyone have any experience with anything like this


? About using dictaphone
Is there a way when files are assigned to you to know how many files or how much audio length you have assigned to you through some function on the Dictaphone itself? 
RE: Dictaphone
There is no summary, I dont' think.  Know you can get the minutes if you hit play header or 6.  Can't get total of what you have though.
dictaphone
I'll try that...thanks for the help!
Help with Dictaphone
I just started workinag (again) with a Dictaphone C-phone.  Does anyone know what the codes are to speed up dictations, slow down dictations and how to skip and flag jobs?  Anything would be helpful.  Thank you.

Did you trying contacting Dictaphone
and asking for a replacement? I've done this before, I don't remember is there is a cost.
I think it's Dictaphone ExText
Someone on here said that once. Check the archives.
Thank you. That is exactly how Dictaphone explained it to me sm
when I went to Florida for training.
Programming a dictaphone
I have a dictaphone, model 0421, which my company would like me to program to work with their Lanier system.  I have no idea on how to do this.  I tried e-mailing dictaphone and could not understand the instructions at all.  I am able to dial into their system however, my foot pedal works backwards.  This would not be a major problem, but my fastforward and rewind do not work at all which is a real problem.  Any ideas?
Dictaphone strips?
How about the Dictaphone belts.  They were strips of..whatever??  that we put into the Dictaphone machine to transcribe.  We first would put them into the doctor's machine for his dictation (at the clinic I worked at).  Then when he was done either he or the nurse would bring the magnetic? strip and clinic papers to me and I would transcribe on my IBM Selectric typewriter..LOLOLOL..Thanks for the memories, fellow transcriptionists!
Yep, but its the Dictaphone system...
My hospital rad account decided to "upgrade" their system which supposedly would take half an hour - its now 6 hours and counting - and the docs haven't been able to dictate since noon - boy R we in for a backlog tomorrow!
Dictaphone problems

 I had my dictaphone all programmed.  The electricity went out, and when it came back on everything was fine EXCEPT for the ringer.  I have been unable to figure out how to turn it off.  I tried program/tel/off/no/to turn line 1 ringer off enter the zero on the telephone key pad/lift receiver.  That worked once, but does not now.  Can anyone give me some suggestions/help?

THANK YOU to the person who sent me the instructions on how to turn the ringer off.  It worked!!  :-)
