Headset Compatibility

Headset Key

A keyset user can have a Feature Key on their telephone or DSS Console assigned as a Headset key. The user presses the key to enable or disable the headset mode, as an alternative to using the #HL User Pro- grammable Feature. The key lights while the extension is in the Headset mode, and is off while the Headset mode is disabled. If an extension user is on a call, pressing the Headset key automatically switches the active call to the headset. Pressing the Headset key again switches the call back to Handsfree.

Off-Hook Signaling and Headsets

Outside Calls (transfers and DILs)

If the extension is set up to receive Camp-On tones for waiting (transferred) outside calls, the user will hear the Camp-On tones in their headset. They will also hear Camp-On tones in their headset for a waiting Direct Inward Line (DIL). The extension will not, however, receive Camp-On tones for Key Ring calls ringing the phone while it is in the headset mode.

An extension in the headset mode will not hear Off-Hook Ringing.

Intercom Calls

If the extension is set up to receive Camp-On tones for waiting Intercom calls, the user will hear tones in their headset when a co-worker dials 2 to wait in line.
