Use these steps to make a phone call from a public telephone, office phone or a call box. If there is no VCO phone number for your state, use the TTY number to place a VCO call. After you receive the response from the Communication Relay Agent, move the PocketComm down to the mouthpiece of the handset and press (CTRL)+(P) to send out the VCO request to the CA.
PocketComm supports 45.5 baud American Standard, 50 baud International, and 110 baud Fast Type. For a proper transmit and receive code through a telephone link, we need to make sure the code is right. In North America, they use 45.5baud. If you plan to take the PocketComm with you overseas, do not change the speed if you will make a call back home.
WHAT IS FAST TYPE? Fast Type is a modified code from 45B standard. It can speed up to 110B for a fast typist. If Fast Type mode is turned on, the unit will automatically recognize the speed and change from 45baud to 110 baud.
When purchasing the cellular phone and service for your PocketComm, make sure you get a TTY compatible unit or look for the TTY-Cellular telephone symbol. MAKING A CALL WITH YOUR CELLULAR PHONE Make sure you get a strong signal from your provider and your PocketComm is off.
MAKING A CALL WITH YOUR CORDLESS PHONE You can connect your PocketComm to a cordless phone that has a 2.5mm audio headset jack, and enjoy the freedom of making a call around the house. Charge the cordless phone at night to ensure a fully charged battery.
