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 needs 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.
USB Flash Drive Requirments
To record calls on your Trio phone you need to insert a USB flash drive into the USB port of the phone.
If your phone doesn’t detect the drive when you insert it into the USB port, ask your administrator to verify that the USB port on the phone is enabled!
Don’t remove the USB flash drive while recording. Doing so may corrupt the file, preventing you from playing it back later. Removing the USB flash drive while recording can also damage the flash drive.
Recordings Format and Details
Recordings are saved as .wav files that can be replayed on the phone or on a computer. You can record up to four hours in one .wav file.
Phone tones generated by call recipients or conference participants are also recorded.
When you mute your microphone while recording, only the other participants’ audio is recorded.
All incoming calls you answer after you start a recording are also recorded in the same file.
