Does the RS25 foot pedal work with windows 7?

If you have a 64 bit version of Windows 7, you will need an RS27 foot pedal. The RS23 and RS25 are not supported. RS27 is available at dictationmall.com

This is more a computer or musical instrument query than a camera one.

Your windows 7 is probably a 64 bit OS and will require the RS27/RS28 foor pedal.

The AS2300 foot pedal RS23 or RS25 are not compatible with 64 bit operating systems. You will need an RS27 pedal, available at http://www.dictationmall.com/147-035.html

Also the software is not supported on windows 7. You can get a free upgrade to the latest version, dss player standard, here. http://olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/software_results.asp?id=1219&os=w

If you have version 6, you need to upgrade to version 7 first. Once at version 7, you can then upgrade to player Standard.

This does not appear to be a query relating to cameras. Please repost it in a forum more suited to the item in question. Thank you.

Possibly you just need a footswitch driver. Here's a download for one:

If you find a version 7.1 upgrade, be cautious about it, since I read that it often causes problems (google Olympus DSS version 7.1 upgrade and read about it).
Hopefully the driver will get you going.
Good luck, hope this helps, and thanks for using FixYa.

The RS25 is compatible. The problem is the driver is not installed automatically. It can be found in the tools folder on the CD.

The answer is all in the serial number you use to install the DSS player!

Look carefully and you will see the recorder disk has in my case an [E] printed above the install serial number and the transcription pedal has [T]

Install the same disk with the E the driver is there, the control in Control Panel is there, but the foot switch does not work with the software. Put in the serial number with the [T] and foot switch works first time!

If you uninstall the play and then reinstall with the [T] serial number you do not need to reboot or even unplug the foot switch from the USB.

Bingo

The foot pedal is a 7 pin connector and you have 3 different foot pedals options the Models are LX-055-5,LX-055-7,ECS-055-7
