EMDAT/Inscribe

I'm lost. This is something I don't think I've heard of. Could someone explain how it works and where I would have to get it?


 


Thanks


EMDAT/Inscribe
It is not something you go and get unless you are starting up your own business. It is a type of VPN that some MTSOs use. Personally, I hate EMDAT and Inscribe is not much different. I have worked on both and disliked them both. I have yet to work with either that provided anything less than a sub-rate spell checker. You can add words of course, but that takes time that you do not get paid for. I rely on auto-complete in my Word program, which you cannot use with either system. Overall I give it a thumbs down, but that is just my opinion. I run from any ad suggesting EMDAT/Inscribe.
EMDAT/Inscribe
I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to know that I am not alone in my feelings about EMDAT/Inscribe. I quit a job after just 2 days because I hated it so. The MTSO could not understand why I wasn't "in love" with her system. I told her why, but she refused to listen. Maybe there are MTs who love it, but it is on my highly dislike list. Will never work with it again unless I am forced to.

How difficult is this platform to learn?  Also, is it difficult to get a good line count if you have a decent account?


TIA


Emdat/Inscribe
Why do want to type in word? I use this program also and type reports in the window provided by the program. Maybe I am not understanding your question.
Emdat/Inscribe
Yes, I have noticed that also. What I do is listen for the info needed, then access wherever it needs to go. Sometimes I may need to write it down if its alot. Pain in the you know what I know.
IT and Emdat Inscribe
Every since upgrading my Inscribe I can no longer use my Instant text. Is there a way to fix this? I am totally lost now. Are there any other programs that will work with this? I have tried several times the patch or whatever it is called but still not working. I even tried to uninstall and reinstall IT without success. Any suggestions?
Emdat inscribe
Anyone know if either ShortHand or Shortcut Expander program will work with Emdat Inscribe?  Thanks.
Emdat/Inscribe

For anyone who has used the Inscribe program - if you have more than one report on a dictation file, do you know how to get the voice file for the 2nd report after you have got the demographics for that report?   I can get the 2nd format but not the voice file.  Thanks. 


 


Emdat/Inscribe
Thanks. I will try this.
EMDAT, INSCRIBE

If anyone uses this program...could you please let me know what text Expander program you can use...If this question has been answered before...sorry...I don't get on here every day, and have been using Inscribe without any text expander because the one I have does not work with it...so I thought I would get some input as to which ones are able to be used with this software.


Thanks!


EMDAT, INSCRIBE
I use InstantText without any problems.
The latest InScribe from Emdat sm
Will work with my USB Infinity pedal as I have just set it up. It will also run with InstanText. QUITE the upgrade from the Emdat I tried to use about 6 or 7 yrs ago I can tell you that. It is MUCH better, user friendly and I think I'll be more productive on it.


EMDAT/InScribe question. sm
Does anyone work with version 4.91? From what I understand, this latest upgrade will not work with Express Scribe or any other outside player. I need to purchase a USB foot pedal and would like to know if anyone has a particular brand they use and are happy with (and company where purchased). Thanks!
Emdat InScribe & Footpedals

Hi everyone,


Emdat InScribe 4.3 works only with foot pedals that can be configured or programmed for specific keystokes.  F2 is play, F3 is Rewind and F4 is fast forward by default in Emdat.  If you have the ability to configure a foot pedal to these keystorkes (function keys), then that foot pedal will work with InScribe 4.3.


Emdat InScribe 4.91 has a "configure foot pedal" utility that allows you to configure any USB foot pedal.  This is a newer release of InScribe and we have been informed of some issues with this configuration feature.  InScribe 4.92 is in beta and if you have a foot pedal (such as Infinity) that did not work with 4.91, please contact beta@emdat.com to get 4.92.


We apologize for this issue and believe it is resolved in the latest version.  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact Emdat Help Desk at 630-743-0500 x1.


Word & Emdat InScribe

Word can be used with Emdat InScribe, but in a limited fashion.  On the InScribe toolbar, there is a WORD icon. When you press that icon, it will open Word (if you have Word XP or higher) and you can type in a bare Word editor.  Your spellchecker will work as normal (if using Stedmans or any other 3rd party spell checker). 


The problem with Word is that Emdat strips out many of the formatting that Word creates.  Not all the formatting is stripped out, only the major formatting features such as font size, font color, and fonts.  If you are in Word and setup margins within the document, they will transfer back to InScribe without being stripped and sometimes (not always) cause problems for the person viewing the final transcription.  To avoid this (and use Word), simply don't use ANY word formatting, but instead, just use Word to type.  This will work fine with InScribe.


InScribe 5.0 is Word based.  It is due out later this year (2008) and will replace the existing Editor (where you type now in InScribe) with Word 2003 or higher.


I hope this information helps.  If not, please call us at the Emdat Help Desk at 630-743-0500 x1.


Thanks,


Emdat Help Desk


Emdat/Inscribe-Is there a way to decrease
the rewind setting? It rewinds too far every time I release the play button or if I push rewind button. I have looked at all the options and I can't find a place to set the rewind amount.
EMDAT InScribe -- not friendly
Terrible platform. 
If you are talking about Emdat Inscribe..sm
that's the way the system is. It is not you or your computer. It is not designed to help you make lines, but just the opposite. I hated it.
What is your opinion of the Emdat, InScribe program?

I may have an opportunity to work for a company that uses this program. If you have used this, I would like to know what you think of this program, etc. I have worked in DQS and I liked it as it was very user friendly. If you have had experience with each of these programs, I would really appreciate the pros/cons, comparison of each as well.


Thanks so very much.


Emdat/Inscribe foot pedal?

Does anyone have any experience with what foot pedal to use for this? I went to the site and they suggest a DicTran pedal that is pre-programmed to work with your keyboard. Also, when you do use it, do you need to press the F1, F2, etc. keys on your keyboard or just use the pedal and that's it? It's also been suggested to use a Gearsplayer, but that's kind of expensive with getting the software, totalling $200. It would be $106 for the DicTran pedal. I have a Dictaphone pedal right now, but was told that would not work with Emdat. Please help!


Thanks!


Emdat foot pedal/Inscribe
I've read mostly negative comments about this.  Does it work with Microsoft 4000 Keyboard?  Is it decent to use as long as demos are pre-filled?  Is it hard to learn?  Thank you for suggestions. 
older version Emdat Inscribe
after receiving the info on here, I decided that I wanted to KEEP Emdat Inscribe 4.3.202. (It can still be downloaded and my company has not told us to upgrade.) If I DO upgrade to the newest, which is 4.9 I think...are you saying that the Infinity pedal will work with the newest Emdat by configuring the pedal? I've done that in the past, but would you mind sending the process in case I do have to upgrade. I wish they'd leave things as they are.
emdat/inscribe foot pedal

What type of pedal works with this and where did you get it?


Thanks.


Emdat Inscribe Auto text

New to Inscribe and when I try to expand my word in auto text the cursor jumps to the next line.  Even did this when I tried a key other than the enter key.  Also have Instant text(older version, Instant Text III Pro, but seems to be taking a long time to get used to.  Any thoughts on these two expanders, which is better to use?  Thank you


need emdat/Inscribe foot pedal
thanks
What type of foot pedal do you need to use Emdat/Inscribe?
Is it USB? If you have a 9-pin, can you use a converter?
EMDAT/InScribe foot pedal issues

I have an Infinity foot pedal that I am using with EMDAT/InScribe.  The pedal works, just not very well.  There is a 2-3 second delay and sometimes it will not stop the audio.  I cannot play the audio file at all if I am not in the InScribe program window.  Sometimes I will lose the audio all together if I am on the web researching things.  It is very frustrating!  I have tried every suggestion on the support page.  I have updated everything on my computer and ran every scan possible.  I do not want to buy a new pedal as this one works.  I hope there is some kind of "fix" for this.  Any suggestions would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!! 


I am running Windows XP professional with Service Pack 3, DSL, Trend antivirus, and the latest versions of Windows Media Player, IE, InScribe, etc. 


Thank you  Thank You  THANK YOU  in advance! 


Anyone willing to share Emdat Inscribe tips/tricks?

I recently started working on the Emdate Inscribe platform. It is a little more cumbersome to maneuver than what I am used to, and I was wondering if any of you seasoned Emdat MTs might share any tips or tricks you've found to speed yourself up using this system?  I've had a couple "glitches" with the function to look up/paste doctor names, for example, and not being able to close out the "prior transcriptions" box because there's no X! Not too much help from the MT company so thought I'd try here - any tips will be greatly appreciated, or if you know of any websites or other resources.  You can respond here or to my email and thank you in advance!



Is it possible to save my autotext entries in Emdat Inscribe
and copy them to Shorthand?  I have so many of them saved in Emdat's autotext and I would hate to have to re-type them into Shorthand.  Is this even possible?  Thanks for any input on this!!

What is IT Pro V?
Emdat Platform

Can anyone help me with becoming more efficient with the Emdat platform? I just started on it and it seems like it is very slow going........or could just be me. I tried converting my Word AutoCorrect to AutoText in Inscribe, but none converted. The Emdat help desk said too bad, that happens.


I would appreciate any tips or tricks to using Emdat. Please help. Thanks in advance.


Emdat platform ???
I did a search on archives regarding this platform and was surprised to find so many negative reports on it. Is there anyone out there that actually likes it and able to get good line counts?  Also, how long does it take to get used to it and do you need to use a special foot pedal for it? Thanks for you help.
Emdat platform
Can anyone share their thoughts on this platform? What you liked and did not like about? Was it easy to train on and use on a daily basis or was it fussy?
Emdat platform
I have seen people say they don't like it and feel the could make a decent line count. Can anyone tell me what you didn't like about it and how much difference in line counts you experienced compared to other platforms? What platform do you like best?
Is Emdat a decent platform? comparable to DQS?

I don't know anything about Emdat, but if it is not a Word based platform

Instant Text works with EMDAT's platform
Inscribe as it does with eScription's platform editScript.

No adjustments are necessary. You just link Instant Text a first time to these platforms and from then on IT links automatically.

If you have a ShortHand spf file you can easily convert it to an Instant Text glossary.

Emdat Software Question for Emdat Users

Hello:


I have a question about the Emdat software.  Regarding the cc: box, sometimes, you have to type in the address, because the address is not in the database.  I have found that when you try to pause the audio with either the foot pedal or the "F" key assigned to pause while typing the address, the audion will not pause; it keeps on playing.  You should be able to pause the audio while trying to type the address into the database.  Anyone else notice this, anyone?  Thank you kindly.


Why no integrity?
Granted he is controversial and outspoken but how does that add up to lack of integrity?
Integrity?
aa
p.s. integrity, integrity, integrity,
for myself AND my work.
Where is honesty and integrity? WHen did it
x
not ALL. You doi not know me well enough to insult my integrity
like that.

Ever experience pride in an honest day's pay or a job well done? Fairness? Respect? and don't look at others - these are things you give yourself.

It's called ETHICS...got some?
