The
TeleSpy's telephone is the same popular
"Slimline" telephone found in
millions of home. Operation is no
different than the regularly produced
version and the user would notice no
difference. The TeleSpy plugs into any
standard telephone jack for normal phone
operation.
By adding
our patent-pending circuitry, the "Slimline"
manufacturer modifies the interior
electronics while leaving the exterior
virtually unchanged. The TeleSpy
circuitry requires an AC adapter
(provided) to be plugged into any
standard 110V wall outlet. The absence
of this power adapter would render the
TeleSpy circuitry useless, but would not
affect the telephone's normal operation.
Because of the ordinary appearance the
TeleSpy is not obtrusive and more
effective. The connection of the TeleSpy
to your existing phone line has no
adverse effect. It is no different than
adding another ordinary phone.
The
Motion Sensor
The TeleSpy's motion sensor is PIR or
Passive Infrared Technology. The passive
infrared sensor detects changes in the
room's heat signature due to occupant
motion. The range is in excess of 30
feet at which point the width is about
20 feet, creating about a 45 degree
wedge beyond the sensor origin.
The
Microphone
The hidden condenser microphone is
strategically placed for maximum
efficiency. It is amplified to insure
that the slightest of sounds are heard,
producing a high quality listening
experience.
Frequently Asked Questions
How
does the Self Test function help me?
The test switch on the TeleSpy
powers the green LED light near it. It
tells the operator instantly when the
motion sensor detects something (light
comes on). The light stays during a
timed period (the listening period) then
the phone would disconnect (light off),
now, light is off and TeleSpy is
instantly re-armed for the next
detection. Knowing how to use this
function allows the operator to discover
the exact perameter and sensitivity of
the motion sensor within their personal
environment. Operational tip: Unplug the
phone line. Now the TeleSpy will show
LED light "on" for detection
and light "off" for disconnect
and reset without calling. Always
remember that the first time you turn
the TeleSpy power "on" it
takes 60 seconds to arm but the LED will
turn off at 30 seconds. You must wait 30
seconds after the light has gone off
before the TeleSpy is armed (only the
first time.) Thereafter, when the light
goes off, the TeleSpy is instantly
armed.
Can
the TeleSpy™ be used in smaller homes
and apartments and homes with existing
security systems?
The TeleSpy™ is an ideal solution for
the smaller homes and apartments. It
will be desirable to lower and middle
income dwellings, including rented
apartments, because they will be seeking
affordable security and higher income
users find it a valuable supplement to
their existing systems. About 30% of
TeleSpys™ sold will be going into
small businesses, garages or shops.
What
if I hear a burglar?
First, be grateful you're not there but
are listening from a remote location.
Never attempt to apprehend criminals.
This could be very dangerous! If
professional assistance is required,
call 911 or your local law enforcement
emergency phone number.
How do
I know my best use of my TeleSpy?
Simple, think like an intruder. If an
intruder entered, where would he come
from (34% come through the front door),
where would he go? What's he want?
Predicting this movement should dictate
the TeleSpy's position in the room.
First place TeleSpy in the best place,
lastly run the cords. Use extension
cords if necessary.
What
about my pets?
Pets and motion sensors can live
together. If you use the motion sensor
with the pet in close proximity it
probably will set off the sensor. Use
the test light on TeleSpy to discover
for yourself the sensitivity of your
pet(s), then devise a strategy which
allows the TeleSpy™ to function
without pet interference; you may find
that pointing it in a specific direction
or slightly raising the unit solves the
problem. Sensitivity is factory set to
trigger on about a 40 pound (5 years
old) child or animal.
