Phoning a Contact
To call a contact, either press the down navigation arrow at the home screen or press
OK to enter the main menu and navigate down to contacts. When you enter your
contact list your first contact will be read to you. Your contacts are listed
alphabetically. Use the navigation arrows to highlight the contact you wish to call. To
initiate the call, press the square call button. You will then be asked to confirm that
you want to call the contact. Press OK to confirm or the round End button to go back.
Note:
If you enter the contact list via the main menu, you will be able to add, delete or
modify the contact list, as well as call from the list. If you enter the contact list from
home screen by pressing the down arrow, you will be able to make calls from the
contact list, and add to your contacts, but you will not be able to delete or modify your
contacts.
Editing and Deleting a Contact
To edit or delete a contact you will need to enter your contact list via the menu. To edit
a contact, use the navigation arrows to highlight the specific contact you wish to edit or
delete and press the OK button. There are two options: modify or delete. Press the
OK button to confirm your selection. Modifying a contact is very similar to adding a
contact, except that you will first need to delete the characters previously entered
before typing what you wish to replace it with. Note, character deletions are not
announced. You can, however, press the repeat speech button on the right edge of
the phone to hear what is currently entered.
Text Messaging
If your ODIN VI is on, and you receive a text message, the phone will beep and will
announce that you have new messages. If you receive a message while the phone is
off, it will beep and announce that you have new messages, after you turn on the
phone.
To access the messaging submenu, press the up arrow key from the home screen. In
the alternative, at the home screen press the blue OK button, use the navigation
arrows to highlight Messages and press OK.
Reading a Text Message
– Inbox
You can access your received messages in two ways: First, you can press the up
arrow at the home screen. The phone will then say Inbox. Press OK to select. The
ODIN VI will now speak the most recent message in your inbox. In the alternative,
press the OK button from the home screen to enter the main menu. Use the
navigation arrows to scroll to Messages. Press OK to select. Highlight Inbox and
press OK to select. The ODIN VI will now speak the most recent message in your
inbox.
