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

Posted By: Laura on 2009-01-28
In Reply to:

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.

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!
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.
Dictaphone Cphone SOS
Has anyone ever locked up a C-phone accidentally and now requires a security code which I do not have nor does the owner of the machine to do anything. I am at standstill.  Any advice appreciated.
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

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?

Any green tea users out there?

I have tried green tea on 2 separate occasions and both times experienced what appears to be bloody stools with it.  As soon as I stop the intake of the tea, the blood goes away.  I really like the tea as it does a good job of promoting energy and weight loss, but I cannot understand why it causes this reaction.  Would anyone have any idea why this happens?  Is there another natural energy booster I can try?  Thanks for any and all help. 


It is MQ-wide for DQS users?
Well, I sure would hope it would be for SE's too, as some of us also use DQS.  I havent heard anything, nor gotten a letter or check..Im wondering is it MQ-wide?  All of MQ that uses DQS?  Or could it be just certain regional offices did not have the count of lines set up right?
TransNet users
1.  Have long have you been using TransNet?  Is it hard to learn?

 

2.  Does it work with Word 2003?

 

3.  Do you d/l the files through a modem or through a cable or DSL line?

 

4.  If you have a cable or DSL line ... how long would it take for you to download, say, all of the Alta Bates or Sequoia reports. I ask about those only because I can translate that into lines in my head. IOW, "it takes 1 hour to d/l a full day of Alta Bates." This way I could figure out where things would stand on one of the accounts I work on.

 

5.  Would you rather use TransNet or C-phone? Why (whatever your choice is) <-- this is the critical question, so feel free to go into detail

 

6.  What happens if you've download a batch of files and your hard drive crashes? Are those files gone forever or are the "originals" still on the master system?

Flashtype users?
I recently downloaded Flashtype expander.  I like the set up of being able to put in what I want but I am having trouble with capitalization.  I work in Meditech and the CAPS status sometimes changes for no reason.  This program is also suppose to print in all CAPS if wanted but this does not happen either except only occasionally.  It also does not capitalize the word at the beginning of a sentence if it is typed so such as Copd, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.  It does all lower case.  Is there something I can do or is just a program error or is it just using it with certain programs such as Meditech?
Just wanting to know if any IT users

would care to share tips on getting started with Instant Text, especially the best way to go about customizing the glossaries . . . just received my IT and I'm anxious to get going, but it does seem that there is a learning curve and takes some getting used to.


 


Thanks to all!


For DSL users..... is it possible to use a C-phon
and still have your home phone hooked up and running for calls?  I remember trying to get a fax machine to work about a year ago and I ended up getting a new phone line for that because it ended up being too much trouble and SBC was of no help.  Any suggestions?
DocQscribe users sm

Does anyone work for more than 1 company that uses DocQscribe.  I work for 1 company with DocQScribe and just got a part-time job at another company that uses DocQscribe.  Is there any way to use DocQscribe for 2 companies on 1 computer?



Thanks!


? for TransNet users
What do you use to listen to the dictation, and where do you plug it in?
EXText Users - help
I too am looking for ways to cut keystrokes. For those who use EXText and the Word client, can you tell me how to set it up to automatically start each sentence with a capital letter? Also, how do you set it up to space twice after a sentence?

Thanks again!
Vianeta Users

I have read old posts from users who do not like Vianeta.  I would like to hear from those MTs who have used this software and like working with it.  Is it better since the new owners took over?  Do you prefer Vianeta to any other software?  What is your favorite feature? I am not a Vianeta representative, just interested in your opinion.


Thanks!

Shorthand users

I'm not sure if this will help you or not but it can't hurt to check. 


On the autoreplace options page in ShortHand there's a box called "options" after the line for Use Alt+Ins to add current word to dictionary. Click on the options and make sure there is not a blank space in the keyword suffix box. 


It used to make me nuts because every time I created a new shorthand entry it would put a space and . behind it and I had to manually delete them.  I did that for 5 years before someone told me about that suffix box and sure enough the space and period were in there. 


Hope this helps.

Meditech Users

Help!!!!    Question for IC MTs who use Meditech currently. I need to get another


"Medical/Pharmacological Spellchecker.  What do some of you have and use right now?


I work PT for this hospital but and the only spellchecker they have on Meditech is called this:  Proximity Merriam-Webster Database Dictionary.  It does not have drugs on it per say. 


Bought a Stedmans but now people tell me that will not work and I have not tried it yet.   I do have PCShorthand but there are no drugs on it either.  


Does anyone know what would work?   Thanks


 


 


EditScript users
I have a few questions about Editscript that I was hoping someone could help me with. The tech requirements state that USB infinity pedal version 14, and of course, I have the "non version 14" one. Does anyone know where I can get a version 14 one? The specs also state that Editscript is only compatible with Norton or McAfee, but I have a paid version of AVG and was hoping that I would not have to switch. Is there a free version of Mcafee? Geez..so many things to figure out. Any help would be appreciated!
Question for VR users...

Just a quick question for everyone who is willing to respond:  When doing VR reports, do you listen, read/proof and upload or do you listen, read/proof, proof again and upload?  I am just trying to figure out what everyone else is doing.  Thanks .

meaningful EHR users

Electronic Health Record Users


Beginning in 2011, physicians and hospitals can receive bonus payments under Medicare and Medicaid if they are found to be "meaningful EHR users." But with all the talk surrounding "meaningful," what does it all mean from the physician's point of view?
 
The federal government has said they might publish criteria for the definition of "meaningful use" of electronic health records as early as June 16, according to the HIMSS Electronic Health Record Association, a trade group for EHR firms. And with June 16th right around the corner, this survey is meant to explore the value of the physician narrative as it relates to electronic documentation and the meaningful use of an EHR, as well as shed light on what meaningful EHR use is.


Express Scribe users?? sm
Getting ready to take on a side job in which I will be using Express Scribe. Did a search and couldn't find any posts since '04. Anybody out there now using it have any comments? Seems pretty straight forward and easy to use. Have already downloaded and it works with my current foot pedal already..so that seems to be good since that was the only issue I really saw on previous posts. Thanks for your time! :)






Question for Shorthands users....sm

1.  Can you import AutoText entries into this program?


2.  What's their website?


For all Bytescribe waveplayer users, I need help - sm

Does the Bytescribe waveplayer version 4.3 or 6 work with the Docshuttle bytescribe program or do I need to have different software.


I can't open compressed wave files from the Bytescribe Utility Export program.  Anyone have any answers?


I was on the phone with BS today for 2 hours, and still no answer as to why - I think I need another version of bytescribe waveplayer to work correctly - any thoughts on this or has this happened to anyone else?


Thanks for your help


Editscript/Escription users
Am I the only person who has a squatty hourly average line count with this system? I would love to hear from those who don't mind sharing how many lines you average an hour.

For those of you who are thinking about posting a response that says 'I don't give out this info'...save it please.
My question is for people who ARE willing to share this info.

Thanks.
Editscript/Escription users
I'm worse off than you. What does Editscript/Escription stand for?
IT users?? Need ideas on how to record (sm)

the rad report MR#s, DVI#s, Accession #s in IT so to save me time.  This is radiology and at times, recording the exam numbers takes longer than typing the report, so hopefully, you understand. 


My idea is to open a daily list on the blank page of the IT screen and then save it at the end of the day.  Does this sound plausible to you?


Thanks for your feedback!

DocQScribe Platform Users

Does anyone use the DocQScribe platform and think the line count is correct?  When I worked at MQ, after switching to DQS, my line count went down, down, down.  They did later reimburse us for an inaccurate line count, but this makes me hesitate to work for any other company that uses DQS. 


To anyone using this NOT working at MQ - it is set up so you can only get 2 jobs at a time and when you sign off your job it is automatically sent?  (I hated this feature at MQ) Would appreciate any comments about this. 


Shorthand users. Can you tell me how to set up an entry for...sm

Question for any Pilates users

If I understand it right, there are different styles or versions of Pilates.  Which one is the best?  Does Pilates use a lot of "wild" music or is it more instruction based?  Would Pilates be good for someone who is not able to walk much on the treadmill because of knee issues?  I have heard that people have good results with this program.  I'm looking to start a new diet here and looking for an alternative exercise program other than walking.  But - I don't like loud, wild music so many exercise dvd's are out for me.


Scribe platform users...
Need some help...I was typing on scribe platform this morning and for some reason I could not access anything on my toolbar...I would click on it and then nothing would happen...any ideas or has this happened to anyone else?
NOTICE: To all BayScribe users

Here is the email to the creators/owners of BayScribe.  Let's flood them with complaints about their lousy spellchecker and maybe they will do something about it.

ATTENTION EMDAT USERS!!!...
If you use EMDAT, you may not have to purchase one of the Start Stop pedals that they say you have to.  When you are ready to sign onto InScribe, there is an options box, click on that and hopefully you will see the system that you already have.  If not, I suggest you load express scribe and then you can use it.  Just thought somebody out there would find this info helpful.  Hope it helps someone.
