4   Operating the Call Recorder 
This chapter covers the operation of the Call Recorder and additional options 
for configuring it. 
4.1 Automatic Recording 
The Call Recorder has been designed to record automatically. You can test 
this by starting a telephone conversation. The display will show the following 
text: 
Recording Call!
10-08-00 14:20 00:01:33
W hen the call is over the display will briefly show the following message: 
STORE
This means the call has been recorded and stored in the memory. 
4.2 Manual Recording 
It is of course also possible to record manually. Two situations can occur: 
You have chosen to record (telephone calls) automatically 
Even when you have chosen to record automatically, it is still possible to start 
a microphone recording. To do so press  
 and  simultaneously.  
						

							Call Recorder Manual ©-2001 Vidicode Datacommunicatie BV  34  You have chosen to start recording manually  
 In our experience this is rarely done. W hen the recorder is started it will 
record from the signal source selected: line, handset or microphone. W ith this 
setting it is sufficient to press 
 to start recording. 
4.3  Operating Options while Recording 
The following functions are available while recording:  
  Pause Recording 
You can pause recording by pressing the Play key once. Recording is 
restarted if you press Play again. 
  Stop Recording 
Recording is stopped when you press the Stop key. Now either select ‘store’ 
or ‘cancel’. A new recording of the rest of the call can be started by 
simultaneously pressing the Record and Play key.   
  Storing a Recording and Starting a new one 
By pressing the ‘>>>’ key the recording that was being made will be stored, 
and a new one will be started.  
   Archiving Recordings: Only for flash disk recording 
The Flash Disk Recorder has a permanent archive. By pressing the Record 
key while making a recording, you will permanently archive it; it will not be 
overwritten. The recorder will have to be instructed manually if the recording 
is to be erased after all.   
						

							Call Recorder Manual ©-2001 Vidicode Datacommunicatie BV  35 4.4  Search and Play 
A Call Recorder will first have to search for a recording before playing it. The 
recordings have been sorted on date and time. If you are searching for a 
recording, it will be selected from all the recordings present in the memory. 
The hard disk version: will search on the hard disk. 
The flash disk version: will search in the permanent archive and in the 
working memory. 
The LS120 version: will search on the LS120 disk present and in the working 
memory. 
Searching is possible on the basis of date and time, and of code. 
4.4.1  Searching and Finding Recordings 
W hen 
 is pressed the following text is displayed: 
Playback Calls
SEARCH LAST STOP
Listen to the latest recording by pressing the ‘LAST’ softkey. The recording 
will be played straight away. 
If the  ‘SEARCH’ softkey is pressed the display will say: 
Calls from 31-03-01
SEARCH CODE STOP
The date can now be changed, either by filling in the exact day, or typing in a 
* for day, date and year.  
Next press the ‘SEARCH’ softkey, after which the Call Recorder will make a 
selection.  
The first recording of the selection made will be displayed, as will the total 
number of recordings found.

SEARCH CODE STOP
The   and  keys allow you to scroll backwards and forwards in the 
selection made. The recordings can be played with the  
 key.  
Apart from the date, a code can also be entered when starting a search.  
 The recorder will automatically enter the telephone number as ‘code’ for 
outgoing calls. If number recognition is available, it will do the same for 
incoming calls.  
The code always operates in connection with the date, so if you are searching 
by code, remember to also fill in the dates desired. If you want to find all calls 
with a certain telephone number, fill in the datespan as follows: 
Calls from **-**-**
SEARCH CODE STOP
Next select ‘CODE’ and fill in the number, e.g.: 
Code = 0793617181_______
SEARCH CODE STOP
Subsequently press ‘SEARCH’ for a selection to be made.

4.5 Recorder Settings 
This paragraph discusses the ‘Recorder settings’.  These settings are not 
needed upon first time installation but will allow you to fine-tune the operation 
of your recorder later. 
4.5.1  Access to Recorder Settings 
Recorder settings can be found in the main menu: 
Recorder settings
NEXT MENU STOP
W hen the ‘MENU’ softkey is pressed, the first option appears: 
4.5.2  Card Always Needed 
Card Always Needed: No
NEXT CHANGE BACK
It is possible to set the recorder so that all recordings are made via the 
CryptoCard option. This will prevent recordings being made that the card 
option does not protect against interception. You will not be able to use the 
telephone without the CryptoCard.  
						

							Call Recorder Manual ©-2001 Vidicode Datacommunicatie BV  39 4.5.3  Minimum Time of Call 
Minimum call time: 5S
NEXT CHANGE BACK
This sub-menu determines the minimum time of call of all automatic 
recordings. Setting a minimum time avoids saving recordings of, for instance, 
somebody taking the phone off the hook by mistake. 
4.5.4 Notification Tone 
Notification tone: No
NEXT CHANGE BACK
The notification tone is meant to warn the person you are speaking to that the 
conversation is being recorded. This is obligatory in the U.S.A. if there is a 
chance that one or both of the people talking is unaware that the conversation 
is being recorded. It is not common practice in Europe to use a notification 
tone. 
4.5.5  Asking to Store or Delete 
Ask store/delete: No
NEXT CHANGE BACK
At the end of a recording the recorder can ask whether it should be stored or 
deleted. If you choose to activate this function, the recorder will give a prompt 
after each recording with beeps and the following display: 
Searchcode = _______
STORE 60 DELETE
The user should then press the softkey of his choice, but if there is no 
reaction, the recorder will count down from 60 to 0 before saving the 
recording after all.  
						

							Call Recorder Manual ©-2001 Vidicode Datacommunicatie BV  40  4.5.6  Beep after storage 
Beep after store: No
NEXT CHANGE BACK
This option refers to a short beep the recorder will sound at the time of 
storage to notify the user. 
4.5.7 Silence Period 
Silence Period: 10.0s
NEXT CHANGE BACK
This is the period during which the sound has to be below the level set on the 
signal level meter to stop recording. The period can be increased when a 
recording is often switched off, and then restarted, if nothing is being said for 
a longer period of time during a conversation. 
4.5.8 Playback Volume 
Playback Volume: 20
NEXT CHANGE BACK
This option sets the preferred playback volume. Once the recorder has 
started playing, the volume can be regulated further with the help of the 
middle- and left soft keys in the same way the volume is adjusted when you 
make a telephone call (in that case indicated by the + and – signs). 
4.5.9 Microphone Amplification 
Mic. Amplification: 4
