1 Introduction

The V-Tap Analog 2 is a hardware and software solution for the
recording of telephone calls. The supplied hardware unit can record the
audio from an analog telephone line or any telephone that works with a
cord-connected handset. The recorded calls are stored onto an SD card
in WAV files, and therefore the V-Tap Analog can operate stand-alone.
The content of the SD card can be sent optionally over the network, in
which case the data is wrapped into a special Tunnel-format that can be
received by the
Windows PC running the
recorder or V-Archive software can both interpret the tunnel-format and
make playable audio files from it, together with the original date, time
and call number information (meta data).
The use of an SD card is mandatory and must be FAT32 formatted. The
recorded data is stored in WAV file format on the card. Depending on
whether a Tunnel has been defined or not, the files are sent over the
network or can be read later by the V-Archive software from the card.
Note that, without a Channel License for Apresa or PC, the V-Tap Analog
does not produce WAV files or store any data on the SD card.
The V-Tap Analog can operate completely stand-alone and when the
capacity of the SD card is big enough, it can store data for weeks or even
months.
Connection to the V-Tap Analog is made with a network cable or by
using Wi-Fi, when available. The web interface can be accessed by using
a browser. The LAN cable is connected to the Ethernet port (100 Mbps).
The V-Tap Analog 2 is a member of a family of compatible products that
can be used to create all sorts of recording solutions. There are V-Taps
for VoIP, Analog, Audio and ISDN telephony and there is a V-App for
mobile recording. All of these products will communicate with the
Apresa Corporate or Apresa Cloud-based recording solutions.
NOTE 1: The V-Tap Analog needs to be powered through USB with
500 mA and a FAT32 formatted SD card must be inserted.
NOTE 2: The V-Tap Analog needs at least 1 Channel License for Apresa
or PC, else no calls are stored on the SD card.
