Making a TTY Call:
You may use the VCO to
communicate with a text telephone
(TTY/TDD). The party you called
will begin using their TTY and
send you a greeting message.
When the VCO receives text
messages, it automatically
switches from regular telephone
mode to text mode. The screen
will display "BAUDOT MODE,"
and then the text received. After
"GA" appears, you can then
respond by using the keypad of
the VCO to type your messages.
