Philips 9750 - User Manual
When using the Philips 9750 as a digital dictation device in combination with the Philips microphones LFH 276/10 or LFH 278/10, the Philips 9750 supports the recording of spoken instructions for dictations. Spoken instructions can only be inserted in Recording mode.
To insert an instruction, do the following:
1.Make sure that the Philips 9750 is in Recording mode. For more detailed information, refer to the Dictation section in this manual.
2.Press the S button (
) on the microphone for at least 1 second to insert your spoken instruction.
3.Keep the button pressed as long as you record your spoken instruction. When you are finished, release the button and continue with your normal dictation.
A spoken instruction appears as a thick horizontal bar on the status bar of the device display. The pictures below show the display while a spoken instruction is being recorded and after you have returned to normal recording.
4.To insert another spoken instruction, follow the steps from above.
Recording spoken instructions in Overwrite mode
When Overwrite mode is enabled on your device, the behavior is as follows:
•Spoken instructions will be overwritten, partially or completely, without any warning.
•When you start normal recording inside a spoken instruction and finish recording before you have reached the end of the spoken instruction, the instruction is split into two parts.
For example, you have a spoken instruction with a length of 12 seconds. You position inside the instruction at 5 seconds and do normal recording for 5 seconds. Your sound file will then have a spoken instruction of
5 seconds followed by normal recording of 5 seconds followed by the remainder of the instruction of 2 seconds.
However, the total length of the instruction has been decreased to 7 seconds because the middle part has been overwritten with the normal recording.
Recording spoken instructions in Insert mode
When Overwrite mode is enabled on your device, the behavior is as follows:
•When you insert a spoken instruction before an existing one, the numbering of the consecutive instructions is increased by 1. For example, if you inserted an instruction before INSTR 2, INSTR 2 would become INSTR 3, INSTR 3 would become INSTR 4 and so on.
•When you insert normal recording into an existing spoken instruction, the spoken instruction is split into two individual instructions. The total number of instructions in your sound file is increased by 1. However, the contents of the instruction are preserved and not overwritten.
Additional infomation
•When you fast forward or fast rewind the file, the device will interrupt the current action at the insertion point of a spoken instruction for about 1 second and it will beep. The action is then continued automatically.
