    4-1112 Kuhio Highway
    Kapaa, Hawaii 96746
  • Telecommunications Relay Service Text Telephone (TRS) Users
    Callers using Text Telephones (TTY/TDD) are able to communicate through a specially trained Communications Assistant (CA) who relays telephone conversations verbatim. The CA translates typed words into speech and spoken words into typed messages.
    Speech-To-Speech (STS) enables people with a speech disability to use their own voice, a voice prosthesis or augmentative communication device to make a phone call. A specially trained communications assistant assists them by repeating their words to the other person.
    TRS provides Voice Carry Over (VCO) for TTY users who speak but are unable to hear. Hearing Carry Over (HCO) for TTY users who can hear but are unable to speak.
    Call................................................................................711
    Additional numbers for the relay in Hawaii are:
    TTY…........................................…….............1-877-447-5990
    Voice............................................................1-877-447-5991
    Speech to Speech..........................................1-877-447-8711
    Spanish.........................................................1-877-447-7261
  • TRS Call from a Coin Telephone
    You can make a TRS call from a coin phone that has a built-in TTY. Local calls can be made at no charge but for long-distance calls use a calling card, prepaid card or make the call collect or third-number billing.
    Step 1: Lift handset and place it in the holder.

    Step 2: Dial 7-1-1 or the TRS TTY direct telephone number.
    Step 3: LED line status: slow flashing - line ringing/fast flashing - line busy.
    Step 4: If a TTY machine or the CA answers the call, the TTY drawer will open automatically. You may begin typing.
    Step 5: If the call is answered by a hearing person, press the * symbol three times to start the TTY announcer.
    Step 6: If the drawer begins to close before you complete your call, press any button on the keypad to reopen it.
    Step 7: When finished, hang up the phone and the drawer will automatically close.
