To enable the blind and visually impaired to use Avaya SIP phones, such as the J100 series, Avaya Workplace Client for Windows supports the following:

• Hidden mode. While using your deskphone for calls, Avaya Workplace Client for Windows is not visible on your computer, which prevents unwanted interactions with screen readers.

• Desk Phone mode. You can use this mode to control the deskphone using your keyboard. You can use customizable keyboard shortcuts to perform deskphone operations. Global shortcut keys enable keyboard control to work regardless of which application is in focus.

• Microsoft narrator. Avaya Workplace Client for Windows voices key information to you using the Microsoft narrator. You can select the preferred voice from the available narrator voices and adjust the text-to-speech speed and volume.

These accessibility enhancements are also available for softphone use cases where the Avaya Workplace Client user interface is visible on your computer.
