3.2.4 Other connections on the CallRecorder
The CallRecorder has a built-in loudspeaker, via which a monitor function is provided,
i.e. enabling telephone conversations to be output, with or without being recorded, if, for
example, the telephone does not have its own built-in speaker. (So-called ‘hands-free’
conversations are, however, not possible via the CallRecorder.)
With the CR-100 USB unit, you can also listen to recorded conversations using the PC
software, without the PC needing a sound card or speaker itself.
Headphones output (‘Phones’ socket)
In the instances described above, playback can also be via an external earphone or
headphones (not included) instead of via the built-in loudspeaker. Any standard
earphone or set of (mono/stereo) headphones can be connected by being plugged into
the ‘Phones’ socket (3.5mm jack plug). This automatically cuts out the integrated
loudspeaker.
Control connection (‘Control’ socket)
For external control of the CallRecorder, an external switch/button can be connected to
the ‘Control’ socket (3.5mm jack plug on the back of the unit). Depending on the functio-
nality provided by the system software and enabled via the PC software, this switch can
e.g. control the recording or enable play-back control similar to that of a dictation
machine, e.g. when used as a foot-operated switch. To find out which functions can
currently be controlled this way, please see the relevant information in the version of the
system / PC software that you are using and/or the information in the following chapters
(for CR-200 see 5.5).
