called Voice-To-Voice Relay or VTV.
Contact your local relay service for more
information. The relay services vary from
state to state, and the procedures using the
VCO phone may vary slightly. Follow the
steps below to determine which procedure
you should use for your local relay serv-
ice.
Making VCO Calls
I. If your relay service has a dedicated
phone number for TTY/TDD calls
listed
on the directory, use that number
for making outgoing VCO calls. (The
voice num
ber is for people to call you
through the relay service).
Follow These Steps to Make VCO Calls:
1. Lift the handset.
2. Push the RELAYbutton or dial
from the keypad.
3. After the Communications
Assistant (CA) answers your call in
text, press REL MSG button to
request a VCO call.
4. When prompted with "GA" on the
display, voice the number you're call-
ing. (In some areas, you may only
provide calling information by text.)
5.
When connected, read incoming
mes
sages on display and start
speaking
when you see "GA" at end
of text message. Say "go ahead"
when you're done
and it's the other
person's turn to talk.
6.
Continue your conversation by reading
and talking.
