I have found nothing works for me like Lanier
Tried many others (very expensive also) and could not hear as well with any of them so I keep going back to Lanier and the best part is they're not expensive, around 25.00.

Hi, Deeni! I did Lanier for several years and was always told that Lanier....sm
would only work with/accept/interface with other Lanier products, that everything was proprietary, but that was a few years ago and do not know if anything there has changed, wish I was of more help! Have a good one!

Oh, I found it really creepy when you said you found the flowers not so skillfully arranged on your
steps, and from your own flower bed. That's what I was worried about, having gone thru some psycho kids myself with my pups. Someone's been in your yard and in your garden and at your door without your knowledge. Its just creepy to me, and I'd still be very, very careful. Especially valid sounded the other MTs warning you about potential fake molestation charges. You just NEVER know nowadays, and these people have already turned on you big time once. Luckily (though I don't believe in luck), you had it on film to save yourself and your puppy. You might not be that lucky next time, and the whole thing just sounds very unstable to me right now. I know you feel sorry for the little girl, but probably the only time I have ever made BAD decisions regarding my life is when I felt sorry for someone, particularly kids. My son even has an evil kid in his life, but one who has a million reasons for sympathy, and I was saying how we should "be bigger" than the situation and invite this kid over to play. Thankfully, I regained my sanity long enough to remember - ever time I have done something like that on a personal basis for someone just because I feel sorry for them AFTER horrible behavior, it has always been a disaster... Be kind, but you don't have to risk your family again. Be kind from a distance. Its sorry she went thru this horrible experience, but YOU didn't cause it, and its not really your problem. But it could be your problem if this kid acts out in your life. Know what I mean?

I think I found it, found multiple recipes with the same
exact ingredients so I figure this must be it.

Found it, Prolastin, also found

Lanier
Yes Transcend uses the voice writer on certain accounts. Just started using it.

Lanier VXP??
Anybody use Lanier VPX? I can't get my wav pedal to play these files. Any suggestions?

Lanier VXP
These can only be played with a Lanier footpedal. They have a proprietorial header on the voice file and cannot be opened without the appropriate footpedal.

I have a lanier - sm
I would like to know more too. Thanks.

lanier
Does anyone use a lanier voice writer and looking for extra work? Thanks!

lanier
I know this may be redundant, but try unplugging everything and then start over. I have had this happen and it corrected it. Good luck!

Lanier LX-219-1
Can someone tell me what the VVI board underneath the Lanier machine is used for?? Does the Lanier machine with the phone attachment work the same way even though it does not have that VVI board???

HELP WITH LANIER LX-230

My Lanier LX-230 will NOT turn on when I push on/off button . I tried *99 1 to see which buttons are programmed, and the on/off button did not light up . Does anyone know what (if there is one) the code is for on/off button for the LX-230. To check, pls. try *99 then 1 while your LX-230 is off, then push the on/off button once - the code should be displyed...PLEASE reply to me with the code.

WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR HELP!!!

If you use a calling card to dial into the hospital system using a Lanier, do your phone card minutes start to decrease immediately or only when you have the foot pedal down and are listening to the dictation? I hope this question makes sense? Tx

lanier

On mine assign job is on the right side 5th one down - good luck!

IC Lanier
Check out MDI-MD.

Could someone tell me what a Lanier is.
I know I heard of it but not sure exactly what it is.

Lanier
It is a device that hooks into a phone line and you hook in your headphones and receive the dictation through there. Expensive peice of equipment. You have to dial into where ever your dictation is coming from. Does that help you at all?
I currently use it.

Lanier
Looking for an affordable digital system that would allow at least 4 people to dictate at the same time. Since they dial into the server with Lanier, is it possible for more than one person to be dictating at the same time? Would you need more than one phone line to allow for this? (Not sure if this system would allow for that or not). Any suggestions?
Thanks.

lanier
if you know job #, use the assign by job # key and reassign it to yourself. if you don't have that key, holler and I'll give you programming directions.

lanier
Try unplugging the phone lines from the modem (flat box) for about 10 minutes and then plug back in.

I need some help. I have a Lanier LX-219-1 with VTI. sm
I need a terminal block, power source and pedal. Can anyone tell me where I can get these. I have checked Executive Communications and they have them new. I would like to buy used if at all possible. Thanks!

Lanier P-145

Hello,

Does anyone know how to use the Lanier P-145(An old telephone 4 tape recording system)? Or does anyone know of a manual I can get my hands on? I just purchased a used one and I have tried everything and I can not get it to work!!! It does power on, but I am not sure if I am hooking everything up correctly.

Thank you very much.

Lanier
Agree. Lanier the best, but expensive. $600-700 for mine 12 years ago. Lasts forever, and you can spend the same $600-700 on cheaper models that will need to be replaced with new on a regular basis. Have tried Olympus, Panasonic, Sony - all lasted less than a year.

Lanier 219

Any one here know ths machine like the back of their hand? I have a few questions about functions of some of the keys.

Lanier
Sometimes they get sensitive and can do that, or also not give a full visual read-out in the window. When that happens, the tech tells us to fully power it down, totally unplug from its power source (from the wall, etc.) and let it sit for a full 5 minutes. This cools the unit down and since they are preprogramed which also includes programming of your footpedal, this allows the preprogramming to come back to its original state. Mine does stuff like that about every month or so. Most of them are pretty old. Also, you may have to get technical support if powering down does not work, to check your pedal settings. Hope this helps. I know these "old dinosaurs" get fussy sometimes.

Lanier

I am trying to find out what are the advantages/disadvantages of Lanier versus other platforms?

Harder/easier?

Outdated/up-to-date?

Lanier is the best
Any transcription product with Lanier on the name is #1 in my book.

Lanier
Lanier is one of the oldest, slowest, clunkiest systems around. I actually quit a job that was paying me 11 cpl on Lanier and took one for 9-3/4 on WAV and am making waaaay more on the WAV account. Lanier stinks.

Lanier help

I need the command prompts to use to access a Lanier system with non-Lanier equipment.

I access 2 other Lanier systems with the same equipment with NO problem at all. But this one is recognizing me as a "dictator" and not a "transcriber".

The prompts I do have, don't work. They are "call in, wait for beep, enter #6" I should hear "welcome" then enter my ID and should be good to go.

I've spent almost 3 hours searching for the solution on the internet and I need help fast. There are a ton of jobs waiting for me on this new system - so I'm losing $$$

thanks in advance for any help or suggestions,

Lanier
Is it possible to get Lanier voice files with anything other than a Lanier? I tried calling in on a Dictaphone, but it doesn't work. Seems like I remember someone posting about this, but I can't remember how she said it was done.

Thanks.

Questions on Lanier 219 or 230

Could some MTs that use either of these systems please email me. I have a ton of questions concerning these machines and don't know where to look. Looking at working on an account that requires one of these machines and have been looking on ebay. Asked a few questions to one seller and I don't think he knows what he has. Any help would be really appreciated.

Lanier.....TransNet???

Hi Everyone!

Do you know if Lanier makes a sofware package similar to TransNet in which you can sign onto their system, download your voice files, and then sign off? If so, what is the name of that software?

Thanks!!!

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

Vonage and Lanier? sm

I have used Vonage in the past with a C-phone. Will it work as smoothly with a Lanier system?

I have had no problems using it with my Lanier.

Lanier Headset

Does anyone know where I can get a good price on a Lanier Stethoscope style headset (metal) - LX-10-35??? I have found these for $70, but maybe you might know of a better deal. THANKS....

lanier system sm

Please help. Our Transcriptionist left abruptly, and we are needing to acess the files to pull a medical report. We have the job in que, but we are not able to get any further. Can someone walk us through getting this thing typed.

I use it with C-phone and Lanier.
I have had absolutely no problems with it at all.

Lanier question

Please email me. I tried to email you, but there was an error in your email address. I can answer a few of your questions.

I used to work for a hospital and they changed to the Lanier system. Since the hospital hired per diems, the only way I can work now is if they delete a worker's profile and add me into their system. I work for them as an IC now.

Lanier and VOIP
I use digital phone with Time Warner for my Lanier account. I also kept my unlimited LD with Verizon as a back up, but use the digital phone service for my Lanier because I'm afraid that Verizon will catch up with me. Therefore, I have TWO lines, one land one (Verizon), and one VOIP (Time Warner). Both are unlimited LD, but if the cable goes out, I still have my land line. Hope this helps.

C-phone vs Lanier - sm
The two devices are completely different, and if the facility you type for is set up for C-phone, Lanier will not work. Don't ask my how or why, but I have both, and they are not interchangeable for each account.

Lanier repair?
I have a Lanier LX-219-1 with the extended screen, and all of the backlighting is out. Does anyone know of ANYONE who repairs these? I live in the Sacramento, CA area but might be willing to ship out to someone reliable.

HELP....with LANIER and Dictaphone???

I am looking for any information that someone can give me regarding getting your equipment fixed with Lanier Voice Write -LX-219-1 machine, as I cannot get my machine to operate.

I also have a C-phone (Dictaphone) and I am getting a lot of static in the earpiece and cannot even hear the physician in the background.

Basically, I feel that both of my systems need to be serviced and was wondering if you could help me here with either (Lanier or Dictaphone) as I am losing $$ as I am even typing this. I have called all the local businesses and searched the web for any help and to no avail. I live in Ridgeway VA....

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated....Thank you

A Lanier question
How do you skip a report; I don't want to sign it off, just skip over it. Thanks.
