Product highlights1.1
The Philips Digital Pocket Memo 9600 series •
sets new standards in advanced functionality
and style. Voice commands, on-board file
encryption and password protection are but a
few of the powerful features of the 9600. The
ergonomic design lends itself to unparalleled
user friendliness to create dictations, and the
intuitive controls are easy to use.
The Digital Pocket Memo’s asymmetrical and •
ergonomic design delivers unparalleled user-
friendly operation. All buttons are within the
sweep-angle of the thumb; a separate on/o
switch and the popular 4-position slide switch
let you work in the most familiar way.
Security and confidentiality is ensured through •
file encryption. Voice files can be real-time
encrypted and password-protected to prevent
unauthorized access. Another level of privacy
is ensured through personal user key codes.
SpeechExec Pro Dictate, the network-based •
dictation software, facilitates the sharing
and archiving of dictations and streamlines
communication between author and
transcriptionists. It includes advanced features
such as file encryption and integration with
legal and medical IT systems.
The Digital Pocket Memo 9600 can be quick-•
charged through the USB connection to your
PC. This gives you the assurance that your
recorder will always be ready to work when
you are.
Assign job data such as keywords simply by •
speaking them. This increases eciency and
minimizes errors.
