2. Multi-User Profile/Remote Profile

Password + Personal Identification Number (PIN)

The multi-user/remote feature is of great benefit if you have more than one relay user living in your household or if you are away from your primary phone number. The Password and PIN ensures that you are the only person who can make changes to your profile. When accessing your profile from another location (remotely), please provide the CA with your 7-digit Password (alphanumeric) and 4-digit PIN (secret number) so the CA can access your profile options.

Choose 7 letters and/or numbers for Password
Choose 4 numbers for PIN
