Philips Digital Pocket Memo 9370

The Digital Pocket Memo 9370 is always ready to take your dictation. Handy, powerful and efficient, you can easily control the latest recording technology with push buttons. With an exchangeable SD card, you have virtually unlimited recording capacity and the .dss file format produces excellent sound quality. Completed files can be quickly transferred to a PC via a USB cable for storage or professional transcription. A large graphical display lets you view all file information, such as keywords (author name), length of dictation, position within the file, and other vital information at a glance.

The Digital Pocket Memo is designed around standardized technologies. From SD (or MMC) cards, mini-USB cables, batteries and sockets to the industry-standard .dss file format for speech processing, Philips employs non-proprietary accessories and technologies for the ultimate compatibility.

Digital Pocket Memo 9370 Key Features

Push Buttons For Single Handed Operation

The Digital Pocket Memo's asymmetrical and ergonomic design delivers unparalleled user-friendly operation. The push button switch allows quick control and single handed operation. All buttons are within the sweep-angle of the thumb.

Two Smart Buttons

Two smart buttons let you scroll through menu options and quickly make selections. Navigating through the menu to assign work types and other commands is fast and intuitive.

Large Backlit LCD Display

Backlit LCD display makes reading the display in poor light conditions easier. The Digital Starter Kit 9397's large 1.7-inch display lets you view all file information, such as the file name, author name, position within the file, and other vital information at a glance.

Exchangeable Multimedia/SD Card

By supporting both Multimedia and SD Cards, Philips gives you freedom of choice and full flexibility for hours of voice recording. The DPM 9370 supports MMC and SD cards with storage capacities of up to 2 GB. The included 256MB SD memory card will provide about 44 hours of recording time in SP format or 65 hours of recording time in LP format.

DSS (Digital Speech Standard) File Format

Offering outstanding audio quality for recorded voice, .dss allows for a high compression rate, reducing file size, network traffic and required storage capacity. Legal firms, hospitals, government institutions or other users can benefit from reduced data volumes, resulting in easier file upload and transfer by e-mail, as well as reduced network traffic. The crystal-clear sound quality ensures that even quietly spoken passages can be understood and speech recognition can be applied. At the same time, .dss keeps power consumption in check, extending battery life. All professional Philips digital dictation devices, such as the SpeechMikes and the Digital Pocket Memos, support the .dss standard.

SpeechExec Dictate Dictation Software Included

The Digital Starter Kit 9397 is packaged with SpeechExec Dictate, Philips' dictation software that provides authors with easy-to-use functionality for organizing recordings. The software can also be configured to the user's preferences. Featuring a modern and intuitive user interface, authors can quickly and easily define urgent jobs and track work in progress.

Author Identification

All dictations can be marked with the author's name for easier job identification and file routing.

Automatic Transfer of Dictation Files Via E-mail or FTP

Automatic e-mail/FTP delivery transfers files directly to a transcriptionist or outsourcing service.

Automatic PC Download

A standard USB 2.0 connection allows you to easily upload sound files to a computer or network and send them to your transcriptionist. When the DPM 9370 is connected to a PC via the USB cable, by default the download process is started automatically. With the included SpeechExec Dictate software you can also configure the download process to begin only after the DPM 9370's DL/INDEX button is pressed. You can also configure whether individual sound files or all of the sound files will be transferred from the DPM to the PC.

Optional Docking Station 9120 Available

The optional Docking Station 9120 enables hands-free recording, plus fast easy PC download and battery recharging. The docking station includes two Philips rechargable AAA NiMH batteries 9154 and Philips power supply 9146.

End-of-Letter Index

When you are finished and do not want to make any further changes to a dictation, pressing the EOL button (End-of-Letter) to mark the current dictation as finished. Finishing a dictation via the EOL button is also possible in Record Standby mode. The file is closed and a new, empty file is automatically generated. The file number is increased by one. The EOL button can also be disabled, if desired.

Up To 16 Indices Per File

Index marks can be inserted at any position in the sound file. You can insert an index mark during Playback or Recording mode. You can insert up to 16 index marks into each file. In Playback mode, the index mark string is shown on the display when the playback cursor moves over an index mark. When you fast forward or fast rewind the file, the DPM 9370 will interrupt the current action at the insertion point of an index mark for about one second and the DPM will beep.

Voice-Activated Recording

Voice-activated recording mode is a convenient feature for hands-free dictation. When voice-activated recording is enabled, the DPM is in Record Standby mode; recording will start automatically when the input level exceeds a certain threshold (i.e. usually when you start dictating). Recording stops a few seconds after you stop speaking and restarts automatically when you start speaking again.

Insert, Overwrite and Delete Functions

Insert, overwrite and delete functions allow full editing and continuity of dictation (buttons can also be disabled). The delete function can be used for deleting a section from a sound file or deleting the whole sound file. The INS/OVR button switches between Insert and Overwrite modes. In Overwrite mode the new speech replaces existing speech in the sound file from the insertion point forward. Insert mode allows new speech to be added to a sound file while leaving the existing speech intact.

Adjustable Microphone Sensitivity

Three-level adjustable microphone sensitivity for conference or close-range recordings.
