Placing a Phone Call or Answering a Phone Call on the Vantage/Vanguard Plus.
All of the Phone Tools are insertable tools: (Dial Pad, Dial Number, Send, Send Text Message, Text Messages). Use one of the storing menus in the Toolbox to store these tools under icon sequences or assign them to keys on your overlay.
Using the Dial Pad
The Phone Dial Pad allows you to perform all phone functions: making calls, answering calls, using Minspeak to carry on conversations, sending text messages and receiving text messages. You can configure the phone from the Dial Pad.
To make a call, the phone card must be active (a red and white icon visible in the Status Display Area) and there must also be bars visible.
To Make a Call
1. Activate the number keys on the keypad to dial the number you want.
2. Activate Send.

3. While the phone is ringing, you can select Go to Minspeak so you are ready to talk when someone answers.
NOTE: If you do not see a Go To Minspeak key on your Dial Pad, select OK to go to your overlay.
4. When the call has ended, activate End on the Dial Pad.
The Clear button clears the display.
The "Connecting Icon"
replaces the "Wing" icon
in the Status Display Area when you select Send.

The "Connecting Icon" is visible when the phone rings on your device. This is helpful should you have the device volume turned down. If you see the "connecting icon" but don't hear anything, you know your phone is ringing.
To Answer a Call
1. You hear the phone ring, or see the "Connecting Icon" in the display Area.
2. Activate Send.
3. Activate Go to Minspeak and answer.
NOTE: If there is no Go To Minspeak key on your Dial Pad, select OK to go to your overlay.
4. When the call has ended, activate End on the Dial Pad.
Note: Use commas when you dial phone numbers that include extensions or directory numbers. For example: 3302621984,123. If a number contains multiple extensions, use a comma between each extension.
