Infrared Use
The IR Telephone receives a wireless infrared command from REACH.
Notice the IR Receiver on top and in the center of the phone.
The IR Telephone also comes with an internal IR Emitter for use with the IR Kit.
Notice the stereo plug attached to the phone.
This plug can be plugged into an IR Kit Connecting Block, or into an extension cable comming from the Connecting Block.
Setting Up Commands
When using REACH in conjunction with the recommended telephone, it can be helpful to include a few additional actions into some of the buttons. These buttons include the answer and hang up buttons, as well as preprogrammed phone number buttons.
First, it may be benificial to include a “Television.Mute” command in with the answer button (see figure 9). If the user is watching televison and the phone rings, the answer command will automatically mute the television, making it easier to hear the person over the speaker phone.
To un-mute the television once the call has ended, we recommend including a “Televison.Mute” command in with the hang up button as well (see figure 10).

Finally, adding a “Telephone.Dial” action in a preprogrammed phone number button can make dialing a phone number more efficient (see figure 11).
