What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This transmitter plugs into a standard telephone jack and wirelessly sends a signal to Bellman Visit receivers elsewhere in the home whenever an incoming call arrives — converting an auditory phone ring into a visual flash or vibration alert that someone with hearing loss can detect from another room. It's designed for people who are deaf or hard of hearing and can't reliably hear a ringing phone, including those who use a videophone (VP) for relay calls. This is one component of the larger Bellman Visit alerting system — it does nothing on its own and requires at least one compatible Visit receiver (sold separately) to actually notify you. The transmitter can also double as a multi-purpose wireless trigger, working with door contacts or pressure mats, but you'll need to purchase compatible receivers before any of that functionality becomes useful.

- Pair the transmitter with one or more Bellman Visit receivers following the pairing instructions in the manual.
- Test by calling the phone line and confirming receivers activate — typical setup takes 15–30 minutes. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
