Yealink CP930 (Discontinued) – Recording a Call

For the CP930 replacement please refer to the user guides for the Yealink CP935W.


To record calls you need to have an SD card inserted in the SD card slot. Refer to the this article for information about the CP930 ports.


  Before making a recording, it is very important to inform all parties that you are going to record the conversation and ask for their consent to do so. In some US states and in Canada only one participant need to provide consent for a call recording while in other states the law requires all participants to provide consent. To be on the safe side, please familiarize yourself with the legal requirements relevant to you, especially if you are making interstate calls. 


Making a Recording


After you start a recording you can pause it temporarily when you do not want some sensitive information be recorded.

If you place the call on hold during the recording, none of the parties will be recorded until you resume the call.

Starting, pausing/resuming, and ending a recording:

  • To start a recording, during a call select More>StartREC.

    The screen displays a recording icon () and the recording duration.

  • Select PauseREC to pause a recording. The pause recording icon () appears on the screen and the duration counting is halted.

    Select ReREC to resume the recording. The resumed recording will be saved to the same file.

  • To end a recording you can select StopREC or End Call.

    The screen prompts that the call was recorded successfully. The recording is saved on the SD card as a file with an .aac extension.
