Terms of use

This page appears after the splash screen, the first time you launch AC2RD. It describes the terms of use of the software. You must accept them to access all the features of AC2RD.

Main menu

This is the main menu of AC2RD. It is divided into two tabs : a Home tab to monitor the software, and a Records tab for accessing phone and voice recordings. In addition, the main menu gives access to a sliding bar (on the left) redirecting to the software settings, the logbook, the about page, or closing the software.

Home

The Home tab allows you to monitor the software (visualization of important information, and access to shortcuts on the main functionalities of the software). It is divided into 3 categories: general state, call recorder, and dictaphone.

General state

The general state returns information about the recorder status, the ongoing action, the storage path, and the available space.

Recorder status

The recorder status is either inactive or in recording mode.

Ongoing action

The ongoing action can be an incoming call, an outgoing call, the dictaphone, or nothing.

Available space
