5 Transcription

Only recordings marked as Transcription Pending or Transcription Suspended can be selected for transcription.

5.1Transcribe a dictation

D Note: By default, the player window is displayed on top of other application windows. This allows a transcriptionist to work in an other application (such as Microsoft Word) while the player window is visible in the foreground. To change the position of the player when in compact mode, move the mouse pointer to the area below the menu arrow, hold the left mouse button and drag the toolbar to a different position.

C Important: While the player window is open, the SpeechExec window may be visible in the background, but does not accept user input until transcribing is finished, canceled or suspended.

5.1.1 Transcribe using the foot control

C Important: The behavior of the right pedal depends on the setting of the playback switch on the underside of the foot control. See Foot control on page 10 for more information.

1In the SpeechExec Pro Transcribe window, select a dictation from the list and click the button on the toolbar. The player window is displayed and the status changes to Transcription in progress. If a word processing program for transcription (such as Microsoft Word) is defined in the settings menu, it will also open (see Settings menu on page 18 for more information).

2To begin playback, press and hold the right pedal on the foot control (if the playback switch on the underside of the foot control is in the N position) or press and release the right pedal on the foot control (if the playback switch is in the T position).

3To stop playback, release the right pedal (if the playback switch is in the N position) or press the right pedal again (if the playback switch is in the T position).
