Garbled Text:
It may be caused by lost, damaged or late signals sent through the
air to the receiver. It happens with any wireless call, even non-TDD calls,
and mainly caused by nature. Move your TDD and wireless phone to
where you can receive a strong and contact signal. If you use a cordless
phone refer to your owner’s manual to know how to switch channel or
move closer to the base to strengthen the signal. Always check to make
sure you have a good connection from the cable to the TDD and the wire-
less phone.
“Drop Call”:
It may occur when you are moving between 2 call towers or in
valleys, hills, and tunnels. Try to redial when you have a stronger signal
from your cell phone.
Feedback:
If you see your “Phone” light on your TDD on constantly, your PP2000D
is getting feedback. You may reduce the volume of your cell phone or
cordless phone down until the red light turns off and then increase it for
better receiving.
