Just charge it, turn it on and it will record any time a sound is made. If no sound,it does not record. Playback on computer. It does not have to be plugged in to USB port to work.

this item is great. You charge it for about two hours by USB and after that you take it anywhere and just slide the button on the side to turn it on to record and off when you are done recording. Its a great little device that provides awesome sound. Perfect for spying or anything else. No one will even detect it is a recorder unless they have one themselves.

It has a USB plug for the video, and an 1/8" plug for audio, which plugs into your computers microphone jack. If you're using a USB port that's more than a few inches from a mic jack, you may have to use a separate microphone.

The device (adapter) plugs into the phone line, perhaps through an unused wall socket or a splitter. The adapter also connects to your computer through a mic jack so the phone line has to be near your computer because it needs your computer to do the recording. I found the connection to be so cumbersome that I haven't gotten it to work yet - keep putting it aside for an opportunity to move my PC closer

No you connect it to another device such as computer, iPad and save the recordings there.

As far as I am aware the USB works as a data transfer cable to transfer the recorded wave files to your computer and will not function while you are actually recording the audio. IT's simple enough to plug it in and transfer the files when you are done recording if you wanted a backup, but if you wanted to use it as a live mic recording straight to the computer I don't think it will work.

Mike answered it right. It plugs into the USB port on your PC. That's the size of the recorder and about 3" long.

You should be able to record to your computer through the USB to whatever recording software you are using.

Kind of - the camera has a special type of RCA plug called a "BNC". It comes with an RCA plug adapter, so to connect it to a computer, you would need an RCA (video in) plug on your computer. You can buy a "security card" IDE or PCIE, and it will use your Hard drive to record. I actually started this route, but found it better to just buy a seperate DVR, and you can access the device from a computer or smartphone from anywhere. The camera is pretty good for an outside, all weather unit.

yes. it plugs into a wall socket. To record your records, you need to use a jump drive. It does not connect to a computer.

It's no software it jus plug in play... If you need software to record with download REAPER or Sony Acid Pro they work great and they both have free trials so you can test and see which fit you best

It works without any computer connection. It records straight from your video source to a SD memory card.

It has a separate power adapter which can be plugged in at any time for as long as you like (even with the battery plugged in, which also charges when plugged in). It does not charge via USB - in fact, when you have it plugged into your PC via the USB it is recommended that you plug in the power adapter. Hope that helps. Make sure you have a big enough memory SD card for however long you want to record.

We plugged it into the microphone jack on our computer. Then, you need a program to use the microphone for recording. We used a free program called Audacity.
