Ensemble™ – User Guide (draft) 10/30/2012 – Beta User Guide – Thank you for purchasing your new Ensemble™ from Clarity – the best amplified telephone that offers captioning service*. Please read these instructions carefully to ensure you take advantage of the complete set of rich features offered by this product. (* upon registration of your product; feature available if you have access to high speed internet service in your home; you will need an available LAN port on your router). Page 1 of 31 Ensemble™ – User Guide (draft) 10/30/2012 Ensemble™ User Guide Package contents: • Ensemble (power supply and phone line cord connected to your unit) – larger black unit with the corded handset • Wireless Access Point (WAP) (power supply and Ethernet cable connected to your unit) – small white device • User guide Installation Your product comes completely assembled as you take it out of the box. In order to be able to take advantage of the captioning feature of your product, you need to have access to high speed internet in your home; locate the router in your home. Install WAP first – follow directions below before installing your Ensemble main unit • Locate the LAN ports on your router – you will need one open LAN port. They are typically on the back of the unit. If you have high speed wireless internet, you may have a modem that is separate from your wireless router. Refer to the instructions provided by your internet provider if you have problems locating the router LAN ports. • Plug the free end of the Ethernet cable from the provided WAP into one of the unused LAN ports on your router • Pull the ends of the power supply cord to untangle the cable • Plug the power supply for the WAP in an electrical outlet close to your router • Allow a few minutes for the WAP to start up and to talk to your router; your WAP is ready when the two blue lights and one orange light are lit and steady (not flashing). Main unit installation (Ensemble) – install after completing the WAP installation Locate an electrical outlet close to your phone outlet Pull the ends of the phone cord untangle the phone cord Plug the free end of the phone cord in your phone outlet Pull the ends of the power supply to untangle the cord Page 2 of 31 Ensemble™ – User Guide (draft) 10/30/2012 Plug the power supply in the electrical outlet close to the phone outlet Allow a few minutes for the unit to start up; you will notice a message on the screen “Please wait…” It takes several minutes for the Ensemble unit to start completely. Do not touch the screen until you see the message “Ready”; once that disappears, you are ready to start using your phone. NOTE: IMPORTANT! Use only the power adapter supplied with your unit. Using a different power supply may damage your unit and voids the warranty. NOTE: you can choose to connect your Ensemble directly to your wireless router (without using the WAP included with the Ensemble unit); the unit can connect to routers with WPA/WPA2 Personal security settings. You can do this if you know all settings of your wireless network – see Connection section. To verify that your telephone has wireless access, check the upper line on your display – you should see the wireless symbol next to the date. (in some cases, it can take several minutes for the WAP to provide the Ensemble unit with a valid IP address. This IP address is necessary to check registration, register, or make a Clear Captions call. If you encounter any problems with internet connectivity, please wait 5 minutes and try one more time.) Page 3 of 31 Ensemble™ – User Guide (draft) 10/30/2012 Registering your device with ClearCaptions™ Your device has to be registered with ClearCaptions™ in order to access the captioning feature. If you have high speed internet access and you installed your WAP, you will be prompted to register your device in order to access the captioning service. Your device displays a registration page – touch the first text box (under First name) and a keyboard will be displayed on your screen; fill out the entire page and press “Finish”; if registration was successful, you will see a message on your screen “Registration successful”. You can choose to ignore the registration page at startup, by pressing the X at the top right corner of your screen. You will not be able to use the captioning feature of this product until your device is registered with the ClearCaptions™ service. • To register at a later time, press the Settings icon, then choose the section named About Phone. • In the About Phone window you will see a section named ClearCaptions™ Device ID; you will see the Device ID of your unit, and the status registered/unregistered. • If your unit is unregistered, press the Register button in this section – and fill out the required fields in the registration page. • Press Finish when done; if the process is completed, you will see the “Registration Successful” message on your screen. • If the process did not complete, repeat the steps to register your unit.

Go to www.clearcaptions.com and sign up for the service following the directions on this website. Once you have signed up, use the same email address and password used to create the ClearCaptions account to register your device; follow the steps to access the registration page on your device, and choose the Sign In button at the bottom of this page; use the information in that window to finalize the registration process. Page 4 of 31 Ensemble™ – User Guide (draft) 10/30/2012 About ClearCaptions®: The ClearCaptions® service is funded by the Telecommunications Relay Fund, an FCC-regulated program funded by phone carrier collections from all telephone subscribers. The service is provided for U.S. residents who have a bona fide hearing loss, and who have difficulty hearing on the phone (“Qualified Users”). When using the service, a live operator provides captioning. By using ClearCaptions® on your Ensemble phone, you acknowledge you are a Qualified User and agree to use it appropriately. You also agree not to use the captioning feature on your Ensemble phone to make or receive calls while outside the United States or its territories. Page 5 of 31 Ensemble™ – User Guide (draft) Using your Ensemble Page 6 of 31 10/30/2012 Ensemble™ – User Guide (draft) 10/30/2012 If your product has wireless access and is registered, you can take advantage of the captioning feature on Ensemble™. Shortly after the complete start up of your Ensemble™, itwill prompt you to enter the time and date. We recommend you do that (by pressing “yes” when you see the window “Do you want to set time and date?” on your screen) in order to ensure that time is accurately registered with your answering machine messages. When the Date/Time window is displayed, press + or – for each field to set all items. When finished, press Save to exit this screen. You will see the updated date/time in the upper bar on your screen. If you subscribe to Caller ID from your local phone provider, the time will update automatically every time you receive a call. In idle mode, your phone displays the numeric keypad and a number of icons at the bottom of the screen. The numeric keypad is used for dialing outgoing calls. The numeric keypad can be displayed in three sizes according to your needs. Press the small/large “1” on the left of the screen to adjust the size of the displayed keypad. At the bottom of the screen you will see 1/2/3 rows of icons (depending on the size of the numeric keypad) – these are shortcuts to the most used features of your phone. Pressing each icon allows you to quickly access these features – we recommend you press each icon to familiarize yourself with the capabilities of the Ensemble™. The MENU icon is present in all configurations, to allow you access to all shortcuts by pressing that icon; it is situated in the lower right corner of your screen. Press this icon – a new window is displayed, showing all available shortcuts. You will see the ClearCaptions™ button under your numeric keypad. Press this button – if your Ensemble™ is registered with the ClearCaptions™ service, you will notice that the button will turn blue(if the unit is not registered, the color of the ClearCaptions button stays grey). When the color of the button is blue, your calls will be captioned automatically when you place or answer a call – we recommend allowing automatic captioning with each call for your convenience. Page 7 of 31 Ensemble™ – User Guide (draft) 10/30/2012 If you wish to caption a select number of calls, you can turn your CC button to off, and turn it on as desired. You can engage or disable captioning during calls by pressing the CC button on your screen. Making an outgoing call Recommended: Enter the phone number you wish to call before lifting the handset; this process is knows as “predialing your calls”. Your phone allows you to predial the phone number you wish to dial. The advantage of this method is that if you happen to enter a wrong digit in your phone number, you can use the back arrow next to the number field to erase the misdialed digit. We recommend you predial in all cases, to take advantage of the delete function available in this mode only. Predial Touch the screen to enable the display. Dial the digits of your phone number; when finished, lift the handset to start dialing. The screen changes to your in-call window. NOTE: you still have access to the numeric keypad after lifting the handset – in case you dial into an automated answering system that requires interactive call progress (“press 1 to access…”). Do not forget to close the keypad when you are finished, to have access to the captioning window “hiding” under the keypad. The pop up keypad can be used to gain access to the phonebook, to engage the mute function or to redial during a call.
