Tele-Q Telephone Ringer Ring Voltage Generator

Tele-Q is an electronic system designed to operate prop telephones for stage and screen. The system is hard-wired: telephones are connected directly to Tele-Q using standard modular connectors. Tele-Q will operate any single-line telephone that works on a standard phone line and some that don't. It will operate telephones through thousands of feet of wire, so the system can be set up to control phones from practically anywhere. Tele-Q operates on two 9-volt batteries (included) or optional AC Adapter.

Tele-Q is a hand held, battery operated, telephone ringing voltage generator. It will ring any telephone fitted with a modular plug from a set of two 9-volt batteries or optional AC adapter. Tele-Q is shipped in its standard configuration where it produces a ringing voltage simulating the current ITT standard. This means it will ring any telephone that works on a standard telephone line. It is completely ready to use and should provide hours of service with the set of batteries that are already installed.

The AC Adapter is available seperately.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The operating instructions are simple: connect any telephone to the modular jack and press the button. Telephones not fitted with a modular plug can easily be adapted to one. All the parts you need, and probably some helpful advice, are available at your local retail telephone store.  

The red light (LED) on top of the Tele-Q tells you that it is producing ringing voltage and if batteries need replacement. When batteries are about two thirds depleted, the LED will only flicker briefly when the button is pressed. There is still plenty of operating time left once this begins to happen, however at this point new batteries should be installed if dependable operations is to be insured.
