User Guide
1 Introduction
The Trillium Telephone Recording Adaptor provides a connection from your
telephone to your Computer or Tape Reorder for recording your telephone
conversations and/or playing pre-recorded messages to the telephone line. It can
be used with most telephones fitted with a modular handset cord. A level control
is provided, to adjust recording level of your own voice without affecting the level
of signal sent to the telephone line. This allows the record level of both ends of the
conversation to be balanced.
2 Installing your Telephone Recording Adaptor
The drawing below shows a typical installation.
1. Unplug the telephone handset cord from the telephone.
2. Plug the Adaptor telephone handset cord into the telephone handset socket.
3. Plug the telephone handset cord into the handset socket on the Adaptor.
4. Connect the Power Adaptor lead to the Recording Adaptor, plug the Power
Adaptor into the power point and switch on the power.
5. Plug the red connector (3.5mm stereo plug) into “Line-in” or “Microphone”
socket of your computer sound card or tape recorder.
6. Plug the green connector into the “Speaker” or “Line Out” socket of your
computer sound card (only required if you wish to play pre-recorded
announcements to line).
7. Lift the telephone handset and select handset selector switch position, which
operates the green light adjacent to the selector switch..
Your Telephone Recording Adaptor is now ready to use.
Adjusting the Record Level of your own voice
With the Transmit Level Control set to the minimum level (fully anti-clockwise)
the recording will contain the caller’s voice and your transmitted voice as heard in
the receiver of your telephone. With some telephones and telephone systems the
level of your transmitted voice heard in the receiver (referred to as side-tone) may
be significantly lower than the caller’s voice.
To select the appropriate transmit record level:
1. Call a friend or information service and record a brief conversation.
2. Play back the conversation
3. If the level of your voice is too low, gradually turn the Transmit Level Control
clockwise and repeat steps 1-3 until you obtain the desired transmit level.
