TeleSpy's telephone is the same popular "Slimline" telephone found in millions
of homes. Phone operation is the same as a regular phone and the user would not
notice a difference. The TeleSpy plugs into any standard telephone jack for
normal phone operation.
By adding our patent-pending circuitry, the phone manufacturer
modified the interior electronics while leaving the exterior virtually
unchanged. The TeleSpy circuitry requires an AC adapter (included) to be plugged
into any standard 110V wall outlet. The power adapter powers the TeleSpy
circuitry but does not affect the telephone's normal operation. Because of it's
ordinary appearance the TeleSpy is not obtrusive and more effective. Connecting
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 on during a timed period (the listening period) then the
phone will 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.

How do I know the 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.
How do I know my best use of my TeleSpy?
Simple, think 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 be triggered
by about a 40 pound (5 years old) child or animal.
