Executive Summary:

Whether you are new to CapTel captioned telephones or are a longtime user, there are several advanced features that make phone calls easy and convenient for people with hearing loss. This webinar explores one of those features: Dialing by Picture, which allows people who use the CapTel 2400i to dial simply by touching a picture of the person they want to call. While convenient for anyone, Dial-by-Picture is especially helpful for people with dexterity or memory issues. Intended specifically for people who use a CapTel 2400i captioned telephone, this webinar demonstrates how to sync your computer/laptop to add pictures to your phone’s contact list, and how to incorporate photos for easy one-touch Speed Dialing.

 

Intended for people who use CapTel model 2400i.

Helpful Hints and Tutorials

    • Zoom concerns have been addressed and procedures will be modified as Zoom continues to update their software. The main security issue was with open meetings. When you register, it creates a unique link for a password protected session.
       
    • Use a computer. If possible, attend the meeting on a computer rather than via a smart phone or iPad. This will give you the best layout to view the captions as well as other meeting features.
  • Update Zoom. Make sure to upgrade to the latest version of Zoom.
  • Captions. HLAA Webinars are open or closed captioned. Subtitles will be visible at the bottom of the meeting zoom screen.
     
  • Check your time zone. This meeting will take place live at 2 p.m. ET, 1 p.m. CT, Noon, MT and 11 a.m. PT. If you are in a different time zone, please adjust the time so you do not miss the meeting.
