7-1-1 or 1-800-662-1220 Deafblind relay users often use special TTYs equipped with TeleBraille. Specially trained relay operators are familiar with deafblind users and trained to provide effective solutions to their calling needs. Text Pacing:
This feature is specific to TeleBraille users. During these relay calls, the relay operator will type at a regular pace. The message comes across on the user's TeleBraille at a rate of 15 words per minute. This allows the user to achieve a more readable rhythm. It is set at this default words-per-minute rate unless the deafblind user requests increased or decreased rates of text in increments of 5 words per minute. |
