Today I am going to show you how you can take
The cordless phone with an answering machine
And use the cordless handset to caption the answering machine
With the Captioncall telephone
So here you'll notice I have the actual cordless
And down at the bottom of this cordless phone where it says mute.
You'll see there is an actual envelope
So, you see the envelope there
That is the actual button that activates
The answering machine over the cordless handset
So now I am going to show you how to
Do this using the Captioncall phone
Including saving the conversations
So you can go back and read it later
So let's begin...
So the first thing I tell customers is to simply
Push the menu button on the Captioncall phone
And you're going to get 4 options
It doesn't matter which of these 4 you select
You can select any one of them
And then at the bottom left you'll see an envelope and question mark
So we want to select the envelope
And it gives you two options
One for voicemail if it's set
And the second for Captioning Answering Machine
So what we are going to do is select Caption Answering Machine
And then we are going to take the handset OFF the hook and lay it "face-up"
So that the mic (mouthpiece) is able to take in sound
So at this point we are going to go back to the cordless phone
And push that envelope button on the bottom
(place the cordless phone next the handset mouthpiece)
(message is playing while the Captioncall phone captions it)
(message continues to play and get captioned)
At any time that you want to SAVE this conversation
While you're getting the captioning on the screen
There is a little button up here at the top left
It sort of looks like the map of the United States
And it has a little plus sign
Just touch that and turn it green
Make sure you do this BEFORE you hang the phone up
Because if you hang the phone up before
You turn that button green it won't save the conversation
So now its green and the captions are still going
So all you have to do at this point is finish the conversation
Or the answering machine...
And just hang up the telephone
So at this point you'll want to go back so that you can read
The captioning so that you can verify phone numbers
Or whatever is of information that you are seeking
So what we are going to do is press Menu
And we're going to go to Saved Calls
The same little symbol that you saw on the screen at the top left
And the latest log will always be at the top
Notice that the dates and the time are showing on the side
So this is showing 9:57AM and this is showing the dates of older logs
So to activate this log we just touch that
Then it opens and you are now able to take your finger and scroll
Through the information and to get back to that
Telephone number we were looking for
503-256-6440
And so, that's how you do it
Now if you want to get rid of this log
You don't want to keep it any more
You can go up to the trashcan and select it
And it will give you the option to delete it
And now that log is gone
I hope this helps.
Have a great day!
