CR-200 / CR-100 USB Ver. 2-3 - Installation and User Guide
29/64
You use the ‘Monitor’ button on the CR-100 USB to turn the speaker function on and
also to select the desired volume level. Each press increases the volume by one level,
of which there are 4 in total. After you have reached the top level, if you press the button
again this switches the monitor function off. You can also turn the monitor function off
from any other volume setting, by holding the button down for a second.
CAUTION:
Feedback (a whistling sound) can occur if the volume level is too high. If this
happens, select a lower volume level.
NOTE:
You can also configure your CR-100 USB so that the monitor function is
permanently activated. You can also set the standard volume level for this. You will find
details on these settings in section 7.1.
4.4 Recording in-room conversations
The CR-100 USB has an integrated microphone that enables you to record not only
telephone conversations but also in-room conversations, i.e. meetings and round-table
discussions, for example. To make an in-room recording, you have to move the ‘Mic’
switch on the CR-100 USB into the ‘on’ position (see section 3.2.3, also regarding the
connection of an external microphone). Then set up the CR-100 USB so that the
distance to each participant in the conversation is about equal and also not more than
approx. 1.5 to 2 metres.
NOTE:
If the ‘Mic’ switch is in position ‘on’, the ‘Monitor’ function of the CR-100 USB is
automatically disabled to avoid acoustic feedback. Moreover, if the ‘Mic’ switch is in ‘on’
position, the CR-100 USB unit’s possibly activated automatic call detection (see section
7.1) will be deactivated temporarily, as automatic detection of the start and end of such
in-room conversations can cause the automated system to malfunction due to the
varied volume levels involved.
However, if you have enabled automatic recording and automatic backup in the PC
software (see section 4.1), you can conveniently control the recording of the
conversation by using the Start / Stop button on the CR-100 USB. The red LED light
shows you if the recording is being made.
NOTE:
After recording an in-room conversation do not forget to put the ‘Mic off-on’
switch back into the ‘off’ position, if you subsequently want to record telephone
conversations again with your CR-100 USB.
