SpeechExec Pro Dictate included
The supplied Version 12 two-year user licence helps you organise recordings, route work and monitor job status. Your typist needs a separate transcription licence and playback setup. Pair it with the LFH7277 Pro transcription kit, or explore the SpeechExec Pro solution guide.
Current Philips subscriptions are assigned to users. Installation/support services are separate; confirm your user and computer setup with VoiceX.
Optional cloud and speech recognition
A separate SpeechLive subscription provides a cloud workflow. Automatic recorder uploads use the Windows Desktop App; Mac users upload files manually. Compatible Dragon integration also requires separately purchased software and a supported edition. Neither is included in this kit.

Check your Windows setup

Read official Philips specifications or ask VoiceX about installation and support.
3D Mic system for best audio quality and accurate speech-recognition results
The breakthrough 3D Mic technology uses the built-in microphones to always deliver best recording results: an omnidirectional microphone offering 360 degrees sound pick-up, ideal for the recording of multiple sound sources such as meetings, and a unidirectional microphone optimized for voice recording and accurate speech-recognition results.
Built-in motion sensor for automatic microphone selection
The built-in motion sensor senses when the device is placed on the desk or held in the hand and selects the microphone accordingly to suit the recording situation. The motion sensor switches automatically into standby mode when the device is idle. Once the Pocket Memo is picked up again, it’s ready to record within seconds.
Ergonomic slide switch for efficient single-handed operation
The quick-response and ergonomic slide switch is designed for singlehanded operation of all recording and playback functions, allowing easy and quick file editing (insert, overwrite, append). It operates with a light sensor signal, making it wear-free and durable.
Robust stainless steel casing for extra durability
The asymmetrical and ergonomic shape fits perfectly into your hand. Its slim and lightweight design maximizes comfort, even when working over longer periods of time. The brushed stainless steel creates a robust and highly durable protective shell around the device. The device is shockproof according to US military standard 516.6.
SpeechExec workflow software for efficient data management
The SpeechExec Pro software organizes the workflow of dictation files and resulting documents between author and transcriptionist and allows you to monitor the status of your work.
Large colour display and clear user interface for easy, intuitive operation
The large full-colour display offers sharp images, making it easier to see everything at first glance. The clear user interface is optimized for easy, intuitive operation.
Docking station for fast battery charging and hands-free recording
The stable and superior docking station provides speedy charging and automatic transfer of your recording to your computer. With an optional foot control connected, the docking station enables hands-free recording and transcription even without a computer.
Light and motion sensors for extended battery life
The high-capacity Li-ion battery can be easily charged through a standard micro USB jack. The integrated light and motion sensors guarantee extended battery life. The smart technology adjusts the brightness of the display and switches automatically into standby mode when the device is idle, ensuring that your recorder will always be ready to work when you are.
File encryption and device PIN lock for high data security
Recordings can be encrypted in real-time using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES or Rijndael Algorithm) with a key length of 256 bits. Use encryption as part of your organisation’s security procedures. The device itself can be assigned a PIN code to protect against unauthorized use or file playback.
DPM8500 barcode scanner, not included on DPM8000
The DPM8000 does not include a barcode scanner. This illustration shows the separate DPM8500 variant. Ask VoiceX if barcode capture is required.
Remote management support for time-saving deployment and maintenance
The Philips SpeechExec Remote Device Manager software allows IT, administrators, to centrally manage, configure and update dictation hardware from Philips, saving valuable time and resources. Managing device settings for individuals, groups and teams or the whole organization is easily done remotely.
Classic mode for clear and easy-to-use operation
Many users still love their analogue devices for their simplicity and user-friendliness. The optional classic mode gives the user the look and feel of working with an analogue device while retaining the advantages of digital technology and keep focused on the essentials.
