Headset Visual and Audio Indicators

The headset provides status messages using both lights and audio signals. For example, the LED lights various colors to indicate battery level, incoming calls, on/off operations, etc.Audio signals tell you when you have pressed a button, selected a new target phone or changed the volume; in-ear ring tones are also provided.

See Section 7.5: Headset Controls and Signals for complete details.

6.2The Target Phone Concept

The target phone is the phone to which the audio link for your (outgoing) call is activated when you tap the multifunction button (MFB) on the headset. You can select a different target phone by pressing the headset MFB.

The effect of activating the audio link to an idle target phone varies depending on the gesture you use on the headset MFB, on your set-up and on the features supported by your phone — for mobile phones you can activate voice-activated dialing or redial, for softphones you can open the audio link and (for some softphones) redial.

If you initiate an outgoing call from a mobile- or softphone, the audio link opens automatically when the phone goes off-hook.This phone-initiated outgoing call does not affect your choice of target phone.

For incoming calls on phones with ring detection — as is the case with mobile phones and most softphones — activating the headset MFB accepts the call. When the incoming call ends, the target phone returns to the selected target phone before the incoming call.

For phones where ring detection is not possible, you have to change the target phone manually before you can accept the call. In this case, when the call ends the target phone is the phone for which you accepted the call.

For maximum convenience, set the target phone to the phone which you are most likely to use for outgoing calls.
