Introduction

 

 
The following instructions are intended to guide you through the installation procedure and some standard 
configuration options for the DS-3500/DS-7000 Digital Voice Recorder (DVR) and Olympus Dictation 
Management System (ODMS) R6 Software.  They are not intended to replace the manual that came with 
your product. 
 
Note that the software can be configured in a number of different ways (dependant on customer’s 
requirements) so this document can only show some of the most commonly configured options.

Pre-Install Checks

 

 

 

Check the PC meets the minimum specifications required for the product.  These are listed on the 
exterior of the product box, and in the 

product manual.  Alternatively, you can go to the “Downloads” 

page of our website at 

www.dictation.co.nz

 to download the Product Spec Sheet. 

 

 

Ensure you have the all the necessary product components.  You will need: 

o

 

CD labeled 

“Olympus Dictation Management System Release 6”

 

o

 

Licence ID code that begins with the characters 

“RD6…”

.  This is printed on a separate light 

green or blue paper that is the same size as the CD cover. 

o

 

DS-3500 or DS-7000 Digital Voice Recorder, including sD memory card and batteries. 

o

 

USB Download Cable and CR15 Docking Cradle (optional 

– not inc. with DS-3500). 

 

 

If you already use the DS-3500/DS-7000 but are moving to a new PC, we recommend you check all 
software settings on the old PC and copy these to the new PC.  Alternatively, if other people in your 
office use the same equipment, you may be able to copy their settings. 

 

 

If your site already uses the Olympus product, ensure you know where the sound files are stored on your 
computer network.  If this is the first install for your site, and you wish to share the files with other users 
on your network, you will need to create a shared Folder Structure.  See below for more information on 
the Folder Structure. 

 

 

Do not connect the Digital Voice Recorder until after the software is installed. 

 
 

Folder Structure 

 
If this is a new install, and you wish to share the files with other users on your network, you will need to 
create a Folder Structure in a Shared Drive on your network, i.e. an area that can be accessed by all users.  
For easy recognition, we would recommend you call the folder “Dictation”, or similar.  If you do not know how 
to do this, please contact your IT person. 
 
Within the “Dictation” folder, create sub-folders.  The naming and content of these sub-folders is entirely 
dependant on your specific requirements.   If you wish to start with a simple Folder Structure, create the 
following sub-

folders under the main “Dictation” folder:  “Folder A”, “Folder B”, “Folder C”, “Folder D”, “Folder 

E

”, “Finished”. 

 

NOTE: 

If you choose to use the “First Start Wizard”, the sub-folders will be created for you. 

 
If you would like additional information on some commonly used Folder Structures, please request a copy of 
“Customer Install Instructions - Folder Structures”.  Once you have read this document, if you need more 
assistance, please phone Dictation Distributors to discuss options.
