This device will allow any standard cassette tape recorder the
|
||
ability to automatically record phone conversations. The device
|
||
will start the tape recorder when the phone handset is lifted and
|
||
stop the recorder when the handset is returned to the cradle.
|
||
|
||
The device is a DC switch that is normally on via the forward
|
||
biasing of Q1 via R3. Q1 now clamps Q2 into a forward state by
|
||
biasing its complement well into a saturated state via R4. The
|
||
DC switch is turned off via a negative voltage above that of the
|
||
Zener (D1). This voltage is usually about 48 volts and is the on
|
||
hook value of the phone line. This negative voltage over rides
|
||
the effect of R3 and keeps the circuit off. When the phone is
|
||
off the hook, the 48 volts drops to 10 volts, which is below the
|
||
[more]
|
||
|
||
zener voltage of D1, and R3 now turns the circuit on. Audio
|
||
signal is via attenuator resistor R1 and DC isolating capacitors
|
||
C1 and C2.
|
||
|
||
This device is really only a high impedance switch that isolates
|
||
the recording controlled device from the phone line via some
|
||
simple electronic circuitry. It requires no battery and obtains
|
||
power for operating from the remote jack that in most recorders
|
||
is a source of 6 volts. When the remote jack is grounded,
|
||
recorder operation starts, and when the grounding condition is
|
||
removed, recorder operation stops.
