Configuring the Avaya 1140E IP Deskphone
•If the base is powered off, the headset is only paired to the IP Deskphone, and you can press the telephone key to connect to the IP Deskphone.
Note: Unless you need to dual pair a headset, operating the headset with the IP Deskphone is simpler if the headset is only used with its
Interaction with wired headsets
If you connect a Bluetooth wireless technology headset and a wired headset to the same Avaya 1140E IP Deskphone, the two interact as follows:
•If a wireless headset is not paired, the wired headset works as normal. Likewise, if a wireless headset is paired with a wired headset, but the wireless headset is not in range, the wired headset works as normal.
•If the Use BT headset checkbox is selected, the wireless headset is used as the IP Deskphone headset.
The Bluetooth wireless technology headset can work only if it is within range of the IP Deskphone. As the wireless headset approaches the edge of its wireless range, the audio quality degrades, and radio interference noise increases. When the wireless headset is in connecting range, the Headset key controls the wireless headset, even if a wired headset is attached. If a wireless headset moves out of connecting range, a special beep sounds in the headset to indicate that the connection is lost.
When you do not want to use your Bluetooth technology headset
If a Bluetooth wireless technology headset is connected, and you want to use the wired headset, you can switch between the two. It is not necessary to unpair or disable the wireless headset.
You can switch between a wired and wireless headset and back again when the IP Deskphone is idle or during an active call.
