TS Phone

At last, an accessible telephone for people with a disability -

The TS Phone is an affordable, fully approved single switch operated phone for Australian Users.

Technical Solutions' TS Phone provides affordable access to the telephone network for people with severe disabilities. The fully approved loud-speaking phone can be operated using a single switch to answer and initiate calls. (Switch purchased separately, see our switches including cordless switches for use from a wheelchair)

SINGLE SWITCH OPERATION

To Answer A Call:
Press your switch to answer a call and and press again to hang up.

What About Making Outgoing Calls?
TSPhone users can take advantage of the National Relay Service and Telstra Delayed Hotline services for out going calls. Delayed Hot-line will automatically connect you to a preset number 4 seconds after you press your switch. It can be preset to dial the National Relay Service, which is an operator based service that will connect you to the person you ask for.

To Initiate A Call: Press your switch to obtain dial tone. Wait while Delayed Hot-line connects you to the National Relay Service operator. The operator can then assist with connection to the person you want to call. Finally press your switch again to hang up.

And of course, the TS Phone can still be used in the conventional way as well.
