#18285 Hello group. I finally found the directions for getting the SILabs drivers to work with the programmer. Please note these are old instructions and may or may not work on Win 10. However, I followed these instructions on my old XP computer and they worked fine. When I upgraded to Win 7 they continued to work. They continued to work on an upgrade to Win 10. However, a clean installation of Win 10 started the failures. I plan to try these modifications on the later SILab drivers to see if I can get them to work again. The instructions to make the change are found in the JMRI group on .IO in message number 53630 titled QSI, JMRI and the Mac. Gerry Pruss was involved in the fix way back then. If these changes don't apply anymore maybe he can get involved again. I know a small batch of programmers were released a while back and I know it is used by some model OEMs. I wonder if Gerry fixed the problem on Win 10? Good luck. Lou |

#18287 Thanks Lou! I'll go have a look at JMRI in io groups. |
#18288 I did an install yesterday on 2 computers. I installed the Win 10 Universal driver on a 64 bit Win 10 Home edition. The virtual serial port was installed but the USB port did not install. I keep getting errors that say to complete the install. I don’t know how to do that. I then installed vet 6.7 of the driver an my Win 10 Pro 64 bit machine. Neither driver installed on it. I have come to the conclusion that the driver supplied by QSI no longer supports the programmer chip set. That version also does not provide a virtual serial port driver to use the programmer in JMRI. Gerry Pruss worked on getting the programmer with JMRI, maybe he needs to do something again to get the programmer to with current SLI drivers. They also need to find out why the drivers don’t work with the programmer in USB mode. Lou From: QSIndustries@... Sent: Sunday, October 20, 2019 4:23 PM To: QSIndustries@...

#18289 Lou, Prior to the install did you perform the special shutdown and restart to start up window 10 in the mode that allows it to load drivers that are not signed? Ed Sauers On 10/21/2019 1:25 PM, 'Lou Venema' tpwillie@... [QSIndustries] wrote:

#18290 Been there and done that many times. As far as I know the drivers are signed as I never had any complaints during the install process. I also was semi-successful on one machine.

Hand Control Microphones:
Quikscribe is configured to work with certain hand control microphones. If using the Philips SpeechMike, you will also need to install the drivers from the CD that comes with the SpeechMike. The Olympus DR-2000 mike does not require additional software driver installation.
Portable Digital Recorders:
Configured using the QS Downloader program, and files are sent to transcription using settings in QS Recorder
Note: If you’re using the Philips Digital Pocket Memo (DPM) or other model of portable recorder, click here for detailed configuration instructions with QS Recorder. If using other portable recorders, use Fixed Disk Mode in QS Downloader Settings.
File Settings
If this is a new install for the organization, then network folders need to be set up, as described in this example:
Create a folder on a shared network drive and name it QSFILES, then create subfolders with names of your transcriptionists (e.g., “S:QSFILESTYPISTSSALLY”, “S:QSFILESTYPISTSJOE”, “S:QSFILESTYPISTSBETTY”). This is for sending files over your network – you need to do this step only once. When you send a file, you will have the option to add/modify your destinations. In QS Recorder, the send destination is mapped to S:Typists.
Also, create a subfolder called Management under QSFILES (such as S:QSFILESManagement). Then in the QS Recorder Settings, under File Management, enter the Management Folder path for each QS Recorder. This allows the QS Player to update the management statistics for all files that are in process.
IMPORTANT!: Quikscribe Software Registration
The Quikscribe Recorder and Player software licenses must be registered within 30 days of installation. Don’t wait!!!
