How to Place Emergency 911 Calls
Using SVRS
You can use Sorenson VRS® (SVRS) to make 911 emergency calls
with your Sorenson videophone (i.e., VP-100™ or VP-200™). 911 emergency
calls placed through a Sorenson videophone will receive priority
attention.
To place a 911 emergency call through SVRS with your Sorenson VP-200,
please follow these directions:
- Use the number keys on your Sorenson
videophone remote to enter 911 in the dial field
- Highlight the SVRS button
- Press the Enter button on your remote
- Be prepared to give the interpreter your full
name and the address of the emergency
Although Sorenson VRS is an option for you to use in
an emergency, you should always keep a standard telephone or TTY. During
a power outage or an Internet connection failure you would not be able
to use your Sorenson videophone to make a 911 emergency call using
Sorenson VRS. Your TTY should work in those situations if it is equipped
with a backup battery. Dialing 911 from your telephone or through TTY
services is still recommended for immediate identification of your
location. |
