How it works

Simply press your TASH ability switch or use your sip-n-puff switch or wheelchair ECU port to access the phone to make, receive, and hang up calls. Although the Bluetooth speakerphone accessory will work with any Bluetooth cell phone with voice recognition, we highly recommend Bluetooth cell phones with VoiceSignal’s one-step, speaker independent, speech recognition software solution. VoiceSignal is a free voice recognition software that is pre-installed on specific phone models. Unfortunately the phone either has VoiceSignal software or it doesn't, it cannot be purchased and installed later except in very rare exceptions such as with the PalmOne Treo. So you want to make sure that your Bluetooth cell phone has VoiceSignal voice recognition and you can access VSuite by pressing the button on a Bluetooth headset. You can find out more information and a list of phones that support VSuite at the VoiceSignal website.
