1 Introduction
The Call Recorder Octo | Quarto is a digital audio recorder which can
simultaneously record from eight/four analogue telephone lines or
eight/four mono audio-sources. The Octo |Quarto is designed for
continuous unattended recording. Recording is started and stopped
automatically for each individual call. The quality of recordings is
ensured by the Automatic Gain Control, which evens the recording levels
of the local and remote voices. When recording from other audio
sources, voice activated recording starts and stops recording
automatically. The Octo | Quarto also has connections for start/stop
switches.
Internal Hard disk
Internal Hard diskInternal Hard disk
Internal Hard disk
The Octo | Quarto has an internal hard disk, a network interface and an
optional CD writer. All recordings are stored digitally on the internal
hard disk. The large storage capacity of the hard disk ensures the Call
Recorder's ability of long term unattended recording. Other advantages
are that recordings are randomly accessible and that there is no risk of
erasing existing recordings by new recordings. The Octo | Quarto issues a
warning when the hard disk is getting full. If the warning is ignored the
oldest recordings will be overwritten by the newest. Stored recordings
can be archived using the optional Call Recorder Archiving System
software. It is also possible to copy recordings from the hard disk to a CD
if your Octo | Quarto is equipped with the CD recorder. Copying
recordings to a recordable-CD can be done in different ways for
different purposes. It is possible to copy single recordings, copy a
selection of recordings or continuous copy new recordings
automatically. Recordings on CD can be viewed and played-back with
the Call Recorder Quick CD Access System software that comes with the
Octo | Quarto.
Compression
CompressionCompression
Compression
The digital format of the recordings is determined by the use of speech
compression. The Octo | Quarto compresses recordings default according
to the G.723 High Rate format. G.723 High Rate compression provides a
good balance between audio quality and recording size and is
compatible with most Windows versions. Compressed recordings take up
1/10th of the size of uncompressed recordings. Therefore the
compression has a profound effect on the storage capacity of the Call
Recorder in terms of recording size.

Ethernet
EthernetEthernet
Ethernet
The Call Recorder is equipped with an Ethernet interface. Therefore the
Call Recorder can be connected to a PC or computer network through
the Ethernet interface. With its own IP address the Call Recorder acts as
an FTP-server from which recordings can be downloaded. The Call
Recorder Access System software can be used to connect to the Call
Recorder over the network to retrieve recordings from the Octo | Quarto
and archive the recordings on the PC. The Call Recorder Access System
software has extensive archiving capabilities including the creation of
special archives suited for backup on CD. A special version of the Call
Recorder Access System allows for fax image recovery of recorded audio
fax transmissions. The Ethernet connection also allows for RTR Call
monitoring over the network. The optional RTR Call Monitor software
can be used to monitor all connected telephone lines over the network.
The Octo | Quarto has its own menu driven search function to find and
playback specific recordings. Typical recording-file search parameters can
be Date, Called number and Telephone number. The Octo | Quarto has
an internal speaker for playback of recordings.
Encry
EncryEncry
Encrypppption

All recordings can be encrypted. The Call Recorder uses the CryptoCard
option for this feature. Playback of encrypted recordings is impossible
without the CryptoCard. Playback of encrypted recordings on a PC is
possible only with the optional CryptoCard reader in conjunction with
the original or a matching CryptoCard.
1.1 Configuration
The Call Recorder Octo | Quarto is connected in parallel to the
eight/four telephone lines but can also act as a telephone itself.
Recording is started and stopped separately for each conversation.
Recording is started when a telephone is taken Off-Hook and continues
until the telephone returns to On-Hook. The On- and Off-Hook status of
the telephone lines is detected automatically. Automatic Gain Control,
speech compression, notification and Caller ID can be configured
separately for each separate line.
Recordings can be started in several ways. Direct On- and Off-Hook
detection is the most common. Recording can also be started by a
switch-connection. Making or braking a contact can start or stop
recording for individual lines. Voice activated recording is another way
to start and stop recordings. This method is common for recording of
radio communication or other audio sources.
Manual Call Recorder Octo | Quarto © Vidicode 2010
13
Individual lines can also be configured for the recording of fax traffic.
The configuration for fax recording differs from the recording of
telephone conversations in several ways. The recordings of fax traffic are
not compressed, Automatic Gain Control is disabled and the notification
is omitted. The original fax images of fax recordings can be recovered
and viewed with a special version of the Call Recorder Access System
software.
The Call Recorder allows the user to listen in to ongoing calls through
the internal speaker; this is called the Monitor function. The volume of
the internal speaker can easily be adjusted. The Call Recorder also allows
for the connection of a headset, which can be used to listen to
recordings.

desired Off-Hook detection sensitivity. Try the other setting when
automatic start and stop of recordings doesn't work properly.
In the Voice mode the Call Recorder monitors the input source for audio
signals and recordings are started accordingly. Voice recording is mainly
used to record from other sources than the telephone, like radio
communication.
Another option is to start and stop recordings with a connected switch.
Some digital telephones have a switch connection for this purpose. If
switch is selected as start method the next item in the menu will be
"Switch type". You can choose between Make or Break indicating
opening or closing the switch to start a recording.

4.3.3 Rings to Answer
When this parameter is set to any value between 1 and 25, the recorder
will answer the telephone line by itself, as an answering machine. The
notification message is played first and then a recording is started. The
recording is stored on the disk as a normal call recording.
This Automatic Answering feature can also be used for example in the
situation that the recorder is added to a call on the line in conference
mode (3rd party listener).

stopped, when the call resumes a new recording may start again. In
order to keep the call in one recording a larger Silence Period is
suggested. For the recording of radio communication it is preferred to
