Universal dictation input apparatus and method

摘要: The universal dictation input apparatus and method disclosed employs multiple wireless devices (“WDD”) base stations each of which include a 900 MHz radio for communicating with one another over selected frequency (“RF”) channel pairs to conduct sessions on centralized systems (“CDSs”). Each station is uniquely assigned single pair. WDDs are programmed code representing the exclusive channels select number stations. When user takes WDD off-hook, sequentially cyclically scans carrier transmitted by authorized until an idle identified linked channel. must be or more CDSs. To this end includes dialing address keypad CDSs third party addressed from DTMF digits. Dictation conducted sending commands, example “record” “play” in form digits send data as ASCII codes packets station. system commands generate keypad, programmable keys customized frequently used CDS provide other specialized features barcode reader. Specific setup downloaded enable it execute dialing, unique different vendors prepare receipt verbal commands. A voice recognition algorithm translate spoken at WDD, such “play,” into forwarded
