ADVANCED CALLING

Using Automated (Touchtone) Systems

With CapTel, you can easily receive and/or leave messages on answering machines or voice mail systems with automated menus. You can press the CapTel number buttons at any time during a call to make selections. This makes navigating automated systems easy. You may press a number button as soon as you are ready to make a selection. You do not need to wait for the captions prior to pressing your selection. The captioning service continuously transcribes anything that is said regardless of what you are saying or which buttons you press.

Note: Some automated systems have very short response times which may disconnect you. If this happens, simply hang up and try the call again.

Leaving Messages on Answering Machines

You may begin leaving your message as soon as you see BEEP on the display screen or hear the recorded greeting end.

If you receive no further information, you may assume your message was recorded. If the answering machine is capable of confirming that a message was left, you will see the confirmation message on the CapTel display.

Retrieving Your Voice Mail Messages

Simply call the phone number you dial to check your voice mail/answering machine system and follow your voice mail/answering machine prompts to retrieve your message (with 1-Line CapTel, you must enter the entire seven digit phone number – “*” codes or three digit access codes are not supported in 1-Line mode.)

You can press the number buttons at any time; you do not need to wait for the captions before pressing your selection.

To receive captions of voice messages left on an answering machine located next to your CapTel, please see Captioning External Answering Machine Messages on page 22.
