TIP:
When using CapTel in 2-Line mode, all of the menu settings refer only to
Line 2, except for Tone/Pulse settings.
About 2-Line Mode
Your
CapTel
phone can be used with two telephone lines instead of just one
telephone line. This optional method is called “2-Line Mode”. Using your
CapTel
phone in 2-Line Mode lets you:
• Receive captions on all incoming calls. Your caller dials your
phone number directly, without having to dial the Captioning
Service first.
• Turn Captions on or off at any time during a conversation.
• Get full captioning for every type of call, including emergency
calls and calls through relay.
• Share a call without interrupting captions. (Others can pick up an
extension line.)
• Enjoy phone services like Call Waiting.
NOTE:
Using
CapTel
in 2-Line Mode is optional, and requires a second analog
telephone line with its own telephone number (separate from Line 1). The
CapTel
840 phone does not require two telephone lines to work – it can be
used with just one telephone line as described earlier in this user manual.
However, using
CapTel
with two telephone lines gives you more flexibility,
including the benefits listed above. When operating with only one telephone
line, the above features do not apply.
