Captioning
Your Ensemble will automatically provide live
captioning for every telephone call you make
and receive, so if you have difficulty hearing a
telephone conversation, even with the volume
and tone controls adjusted to your preferences
(see page 19), you can simply read the
captioning. You'll see a transcript of everything
the other caller is saying. It's like TV captions
for your telephone calls.
Captioning may be new to you and may take
some time to get used to. Most people take a
few weeks of moderate to heavy phone use
before they are fully comfortable using captions.
When each call starts, there will be a brief
pause while the call is received at the
ClearCaptions Captioning Center. You'll hear
the other person speaking, then see the
captions a moment later. The audio and the
captioning will be slightly out of sync — this
is normal as there is some time required for
conversion and transmission to your phone.
ClearCaptions
combines
technology and
human interaction
to create and
display the
captions for you.
A specially trained
captioning
assistant hears
only the incoming
audio of the
person you are
speaking with and
converts it to text
that is accurately
and nearly
instantly delivered
to your phone.
