This section describes features and procedures common to both the Call Center Agent and the Call Center Supervisor.

Headset interface

Note: Refer to your distributor for recommended headset types for use with the IP Phone 1150E.

Test your headset before using the phone to receive calls. In a noisy environment, an amplified headset is an option. Select Headset type in the Options list and choose Type 1, Type 2, or Amplified. When an amplified headset is used, there are two methods of volume control: the Volume Control Bar on the phone and the volume control on the headset amplifier. Adjust the phone volume before adjusting the headset volume. To provide the best communication with the least amount of distortion, the headset volume control should have a higher setting than the phone volume control.
