Knowing What Sounds Are on the Line
The display screen tells you what sounds are occurring during your call with
two visual indicators: the Signal meter and the Outgoing Volume meter.
These meters only appear during captioned calls.
The Signal Meter
This helpful meter lights up to indicate
sounds on the handset, such as the caller’s
voice or a busy signal. It shows whenever a
sound is coming through the handset, even
if the sound is not loud enough for you to
hear. The size of this meter expands and
contracts with the volume of the sound.
Very loud sounds cause the meter to
completely light up the whole box. Quiet
sounds may cause just a single dot on the
display to light up. This meter can help you
gauge when a person is finished speaking
or initially answers a call.
The Outgoing Volume Meter
This meter helps you see how loudly you
are speaking. More of the bar lights up if
you speak loudly. Less of the bar lights up
if you speak quietly. You can use the
volume meter to gauge the volume of your
own voice during a call.
NOTE:
If the Outgoing Volume Meter is
filling completely or consistently turns
red, you may be speaking too loudly.
