FAQS
How to use the DVT1160?
The DVT1160 is a voice tracking device. It works by listening for your voice and then tracking you by the sound of your voice. To use the device, simply turn it on and speak into it. The device will listen for your voice and then track you based on the sound of your voice.
How do I set up my DVT1160?
The DVT1160 comes pre-programmed with several different settings that are designed to work in different environments. To select a setting, press the button labeled “SETTING” until the setting you want appears in the display.
How do I change my battery?
Your DVT1160 uses a standard 9 volt battery. You can find replacement batteries at most electronics stores or online. To replace the battery, remove the back cover of your DVT1160 by unscrewing it from the bottom of the unit. Remove the old battery and replace it with a new one. Replace the back cover and screw it back into place.
How do I reset my DVT1160?
If you accidentally change a setting on your DVT1160, or if you would like to start fresh with all of your settings at their default values, you can reset your DVT1160 to its factory defaults by pressing and holding down both buttons on top of your device for about 10 seconds until all of the lights flash twice.
Can I use my DVT1160 outside?
The DVT1160 was designed to be used indoors in quiet environments like offices or classrooms. If you plan on using your device outdoors, we recommend that you try using it indoors first to make sure that it will work well in that environment before taking it outdoors with you. If you do decide to take it outdoors, we recommend that you keep it away from sources of loud noise like traffic or crowds so that it can best hear your voice commands. We also recommend that you stay within 20 feet (6 meters) of your device so that it can best track your voice commands.
compatible with windows 8?
Yes.
does it have multiple playback modes
Yes.
After you record can you play, pause to transcribe, rewind and play a few minutes again? Some recorders require you to rewind to beginning?
If you download the dictation to the computer, you can do so with the Philops SpeechExec software.
How many hours will it record with a 32gb micro sd card?
Recording time (internal memory): 23 h (HQ mode), 68 h (SP mode), 270 h (LP mode) — because the build-in memory is 4GB, perhaps we can multiply those hours times 8 to approximate the recording times with a 32GB micro sd card. 8 X 23 = 184 hours for HQ mode.
Does it have a speaker which allow it to play voice without earphone?
Yes. You can listen/record without external microphone. It’s just like the old school micro cassette recorders, but digital
Does this one include the “tie clip microphone?”
No, it does not.
Will this charge while plugged into the computer or do you always need batteries?
It should charge while plugged into a computer, though most usb ports on computers will charge much slower than a wall plug. Some PC models have usb ports that put out more amps than others and are made for charging.
Does it time stamp recordings?
Not that you can “hear” during playback, but yes it does when transferred to a computer.
Is this just voice activated recording? Or can you set it to start a continuous recording when you use the record button?
Yes, you can press the record button to start a continuous recording.
Is it compatible with mac os x 10.10.5
Yes it is
