I have a Dell Inspiron pc with Vista. I find it impossible to install the Olympus Footswitch RS25. I have already installed the DDS transcription Module. I have tried every thing I know which isn't much...Please help me.

  • djtndjt Nov 12, 2008

    Ekse,



    Thanks for trying to help me. I just bought this computer and found out after the fact that the programs that I need for class which are WordPerfect X3 and my transcription equipment. Now, the Olympus DDS Transcription Module loaded fine, but after I download my dictation and try to play it back with my Olympus Footpedal, I can hear the dictation comming through my earphones, but it isn't being controlled by the Footpedal.... The footswitch shows up on my control panel, but its not installed.



    The other folks in my class do not have Vista and it loaded fine without software....it did not come with software....Also, my teacher gave me a WordPerfect 12 disc to install to replace the X3.....

    She told me my equipment and software should work with my computer....and I don't know enough about it to disagree with her...can you help me.



    I tried your suggestion, but the install file never came up...or where do I find it....does it not pop up on its own....Thanks again

Disconnect Footswitch from computer
if using a straight USB connection, delete all instances of previus installation.
reboot & reconnect footswitch (swap cables if not detected)

Check if the drivers are compatible with vista

Well first thing to try in getting the software installed is to right click on the install file and select run as administrator, the setup should work better.

This is just a initial idea so use the add a comment function to tell me more about the problem

Thanks,
Ekse

    Your footswitch doesn't support vista currently, you would need xp to run it with best results.

Problem with Olympus AS-2400 PC Transcription Kit

I saw the AS2400 is compatible with Windows XP/2000/Vista.

You can install Windows XP in your computer (I presume you have a 4th Gen Intel processor installed in it) and run this software under Windows XP.
On the Windows 8.1 Help and Support, search: Windows XP

I installed Olympus DSS player (version 6.3) on my HP with windows vista home premium OS. The DSS player works fine, but I am not able to use the corresponding RS25 foot pedal with it. Please help!

Possibly you just need a footswitch driver. Here's a download for one:
http://user-guides.co.uk/download/olympus/olympusrs/olympus-rs-28-footswitch-driver.html
If you find a version 7.1 upgrade, be cautious about it, since I read that it often causes problems (google Olympus DSS version 7.1 upgrade and read about it).
Hopefully the driver will get you going.
Good luck, hope this helps, and thanks for using FixYa.

I have a DSS Player 2002. I just bought a RS 27 Foot Control switch. I've plugged it into the port but can't seem to get it to activate. I've even taken my computer and the switch to a computer shop and...

the software does require a special software key in order for the footswitch to work. Also the footswitch must be plugged in before the software is installed. if this is the case...uninstall and reinstall the software with footpedal attached

Foot switch will not respond.

The answer is all in the serial number you use to install the DSS player!

Look carefully and you will see the recorder disk has in my case an [E] printed above the install serial number and the transcription pedal has [T]

Install the same disk with the E the driver is there, the control in Control Panel is there, but the foot switch does not work with the software. Put in the serial number with the [T] and foot switch works first time!

If you uninstall the play and then reinstall with the [T] serial number you do not need to reboot or even unplug the foot switch from the USB.
