The headset controls for invoking each of the above features of your softphone work in exactly the same way as they do for your mobile or desk phone. See also your Jabra headset reference manual for details about how to invoke each of these functions.

Note: Make sure that your Jabra device is selected as both Headset and Handset in the Audio Tuning Wizard of Cisco IP Communicator.

See also your Cisco IP Communicator documentation for complete details.

Note: The Jabra interface for Cisco IP Communicator will only be installed if the Cisco program is already present on your computer when you run the Jabra setup program. If you installed the Cisco program after installing Jabra, then you must run the Jabra setup program again to install the Cisco driver. Look also for a read- me file and/or see also your Jabra headset reference manual for details about running the Jabra setup program.

Using Microsoft Office Communicator

Microsoft Office Communicator does not require a dedicated driver to work with Jabra products. For the same reason, you do not need to run the Jabra Device Service in order to send commands from your headset to the softphone. However, you will still use the Jabra Device Service whenever you want to configure your headset using the Jabra Control Center.

See "System Requirements” on page 4 for Microsoft version requirements.

You are able to control the following features of Microsoft Office Communicator using your standard Jabra headset controls:

Accept incoming call

End call

Mute microphone
