GLOSSARY OF

PRIMARY FUNCTIONS

Dial - This key toggles the Q90

in or out of dialing mode. After turning on the Q90, press Dial

once to select a phone number from the directory or to dial manually. See “Making a Phone Call,” page 12. Pressing the key a second time or pressing the ESC key cancels dial mode.

Redial - Press this key to redial the last number you dialed.

Quick # - This key

automatically dials the number in Directory 1. Use it for the

number you dial most frequently, such as your call relay service. See page 8 to set up your Phone Directory.

VCO Request - When on line, press this key to transmit a fac- tory defined message, “VCO

CALL PLS GA” , and automatically establish VCO mode. See

“VCO (Voice Carry Over) Calls”, page 16.

MSG 1 & MSG 2 -

Press these keys to send user-defined messages.

See “Personalized MSG 1& 2” on page 9.

Hi-Speed™- Sends text at

twice the normal speed, so you can type as fast as you want,

for quicker, more economical calls.

Ameriphone has developed Hi-Speed™as an “open” format that can be licensed, at no charge, to other TTY manufacturers, relay services, etc. Our goal is to encourage an industry-wide standard that enables the greatest number of TTY users to communicate at new, higher speeds. See “Changing Other Settings,” page 12.

Save - If this key is pressed

while in dial mode, it saves a phone number sequence in the

phone directory. If this key is pressed when not in dial mode, it saves a user message.

HCO - The Q90 allows you to

type the outgoing conversation, while allowing you to hear the

response through an accessory speaker or Walkman style headset. HCO is for people who can hear, but have difficulty speaking. These calls are usually made through the relay service. See “HCO (Hearing Carry Over) Calls,” page 17.

Transfer - Allows a call to be

transferred to another TTY on the some phone line. See

“Transfer,” page 15.
