TRANSCRIPTION FOOT PEDALS



DIY TRANSCRIPTION FOOT PEDAL

For the would-be transcriptionists that don't have the money to spare to buy foot pedals, (Even the relatively affordable ones like mine)  Money (or the lack thereof) should not be a hindrance.  This data is available in the Web for those who know how to look, i'm just spreading the word out so that it'd be able to reach more.

  Here's how you can build your very own foot pedal.

More stuff on my blog
 


And before running off to your local hardware to start on building one, I'd remind everyone that the instructions mentioned below are meant to be used for ExpressScribe and are not meant to work for transcription software that requires an Olympus pedal.



All you need are the ff:
  • Serial 9-Pin/15-pin  plug and housing (you can buy these at the electronics shop, price varies from P35 to P100)
  • Shielded cable - (the thicker ones are better but it's gonna cost you around Php25/meter)
  • Soldering gun and a little soldering know how.
  • Foot switch (the ones used in Sewing Machines) These can be bought for around 500 bucks a pop, but i think you can get them cheaper in Raon.  For the single step, you'd need of of these, and three for the three way.
  • If you still don't have cash for the foot switch, door bell buttons or any other naturally-open switches with springs would do.


As for the wiring, i got these from ExpressScribe's website.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me and I'll try to answer it as best I can.

 

And before building one, please opt for my footpedals first, they'r reasonably priced, made of durable steel, and have six-month warranties. List down your cost of building one and pit them against buying one of mine's and you'll see that I'm giving you a pretty sweet deal.

 

For small groups who want to start in transcriptions, I can refer you to aptly-skilled Tech Support people (with experience in the transcriptions and call center field) who can help you set up your work stations. (You'd have to pay for their services, of course)

 

Please refer to my Transcription Pedal ad for my contact details.

 

Thanks again, Sulit!!!!

 

Happy Transcribing!!!!
