There are four features used with headsets: Headset Hang Up, Headset Status, Headset Auto Answer, and Headset/Handset Mute (MLX telephones only; use the fixed Mute button on the 4424LD+ and 4424D+ telephones). All must be programmed on buttons. The Headset Hang Up button (required) is programmed by your System Manager and activates headset operation at your telephone.
To use Headset Hang Up:
Press the programmed button to answer a call and press it again to disconnect, even if the caller hangs up. Unless you have programmed a Headset Status button, headset operation is always on.
To use Headset Status:
Press the programmed button to switch between headset and handset operation; when headset operation is on, the green light is on.
To use Headset Auto Answer:
Connects you automatically to ringing calls during headset operation. When you press the button to activate the feature, the green light goes on; to turn off Headset Auto Answer operation, press the button again.
To use Headset/Handset Mute (MLX telephones only):
Lets you turn off the microphone in the headset or handset, so that a caller cannot hear your conversation. The red light goes on when the headset (during headset operation) or the handset (during handset operation) microphone is off.
Note: Use the fixed Mute button on the 4424LD+ and 4424D+ telephones to turn off the microphone in the headset. If you press the Speaker button when you are on a headset call, the call transfers from the headset to the speakerphone. Press the Speaker button again to return the call to your headset.
