Connecting Applications to the Device Service

If you would like to change the currently configured target:

1.Click on the Configure button. This opens a simple dialog window with a single drop-down list.

2.Select your preferred target from the drop-down list. If you prefer not to have a target, then select the “None” entry (see the note below for details about why you might do this).

3.Click on OK to close the configuration window. Your new selection should now show a check mark in its Configured column on the Default Softphone tab.

Connecting Applications to the Device Service

The main purpose of the Device Service is to act as a conduit through which applications running on your PC can communicate with your headset and interact with its advanced features (and vice-versa). Use the Applications tab of the Jabra Device Service settings window to see a list of applications that are currently connected to the service

To view a list of connected applications, make sure that the Jabra Device Service is running and open its settings window from the Notification Area icon. Then click on the Applications tab.

The Applications tab provides a table that lists information about the connected applications using the following columns:

•Name: the name of a given connected application

•Version: the software version number reported by the application

•Type: the type of application (e.g., "Softphone")

•Open Devices: shows the name of the physical Jabra device to which the Device Service has an open connection for each listed application.
