Can't you simply take the tape from the 2750 and put it into the other Dictaphone to play it? Or is the other Dictaphone a different size tape (eg; mini or micro)?

Make sure the foot pedal is plugged into the SIDE of the machine and not the BACK of the machine. I've seen many people make this mistake...

Sorry, I don't speak spanish, but try replacing Q609 on the main PCB. It's located on the top, towards the front of the machine.

Also make sure that the motor doesn't have a 'flat spot' (that it stalls). This is generally what blows the Q609 transistor. If you have power to the machine and a cassette in, try manually turning the motor to see if it'll start on it's own.

For transcribing, you'll need the machine (2750), the power supply, a foot control, and a headset (unless you use the machine's built-in speaker).

For dictating, you'll need the machine (2750), the power supply, and the microphone.

I'm sorry to hear that your Dictaphone 1243 is experiencing difficulties with recording sound. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try to resolve the issue: 1. Check the microphone: Ensure that the microphone is not obstructed or damaged. Clean any debris or dust that may be affecting its functionality. 2. Volume settings: Verify that the volume is not set too low or muted. Adjust the volume settings accordingly. 3. Batteries: If your Dictaphone 1243 operates on batteries, make sure they are charged or replace them with fresh batteries. Insufficient power can affect the device's performance. 4. Recording mode: Confirm that you have selected the correct recording mode. Some devices have different recording options, such as voice activation or manual recording. Ensure you have chosen the appropriate mode for your needs. 5. Storage space: Check if there is sufficient storage space available on your device. If the memory is full, it may prevent further recordings. Delete unnecessary files or transfer them to another storage device to free up space. 6. Reset or firmware update: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you may consider performing a reset on your Dictaphone 1243. Consult the device's manual or contact the manufacturer's support for instructions on how to reset the device. Additionally, you could check if there are any firmware updates available for your device and apply them if necessary. If none of these steps help to resolve the problem, it might be best to reach out to the manufacturer's support team or consider taking the device to a professional technician for further assistance.

Hello they have it http://www.tvps.com/Products/Dictaphone-1253-Manual---Mini-Cassette-Portable-Dictation-Recorder__ECS-MANDI1253.aspx

There are several Freeware Text-to-Speech and some very expensive Text-to-Speech available on the internet, but to the best of my knowledge there is nothing available at any price that will do a proper job --the easy way. This is why all "books on tape" or CD or whatever else, are performed by real people. Check in your local library. :-) If you really want to voice record text books for your son to listen to, you are the only one who can do it. It is a labor of love. Or you can hire a student radio announcer. At your local second hand stores you'll be able to get yourself a decent cassette tape recorder/player and a decent plug-in external microphone, with an ON-OFF switch. That should be an investment of not more than $20.00 to $30.00 The 60 minute cassette tapes are the more durable ones, and can be had for about $1.00 each. Much information is available on the Internet about how to record your voice on tape. For converting your tapes to MP3, my choice is a freeware named Audacity. The benefit of this software is that not only it has professional features, but it has excellent on-line manuals and step-by-step instructions. After that, it is only a question of trial-and-error until you are happy with the final outcome. It is time and effort well invested. Cheers

There is a couple reasons way your unit can beep. #1 not tape on the unit #2 if you trying to record maybe the cassette tab on the cassette is broken to protect a recording #3 it can be at the end of the tape #4 try to play and make sure tape moves if tape don't move possible broken belt or bad motor If none above you can send an email to [email protected] or call (805) 644-9525. Please indicate model and detailed description of problem.

I agree wiht chris,that's a great solution. What about tape to pc?

The 2720 has an internal fuse that may have blown as well.

Hello there,
At times companies that produce devices like this tend not to put the manual online and efforts to try to get it through some other users upload might be difficult as well. The solution is for you to simply just disassemble the device and try to locate the fried regulator.
That way, you will be able to solve the problem, The moment you disassemble the device, you will be able to detect where the problem is from and know how to solve the problem from there.
Most times, the service manual just do not give prescription and direction on how to repair problems like this as the kind of solution the proffer there are basically common problem that requires just pressing just one button or the other on the device.
Try to disassemble it, that way you will be able to diagnose, detect and fix the problem as the case may apply. But if you do not want to disassemble it, you can get it to a repairman to have it checked and fixed for you in order to save you the expense of a guess work.
Hope this information was helpful to you. Goodluck. Elect_Comp

There is a switch on the right-hand side of the machine labelled 'VOX'. Set this switch to the 'OFF' position and you should be good to go.

'VOX' is voice-activated recording. It's designed to record only when someone is talking, and to pause when nothing is being said. In theory it's a great feature, but it never really works as good as you'd like. It'll usually miss the first few words you say, or it'll cut in & out while you're talking.

You can also set the 'VOX' sensitivity by adjusting the 'Tone/VOX' slider on the front of the machine.

Hope this helps...

When in RECORD, pressing the 'Cue' button will put a tone on the tape. This is used on the transcriber's machine to identify different jobs and such.

When in PLAY, pressing the 'F Play' button will change the playback speed to 1.5.

If you hold the 'ERASE' button and hold the portable in REWIND, it'll erase the tape while it's rewinding.

Hope this helps...

I've still got some parts for these machines if you still need it repaired.
