Headset

My headset is unstable.

When you wear the headset, the microphone should rest as close to your cheek

 

as possible without touching. The microphone can be adjusted inward by pivoting

 

the earpiece to optimize the position of the headset. See Position your headset.

I can’t subscribe a headset to the base.

Make sure both the headset and base have the red XD markings. See Subscription button in this user guide.

Desk Phone

I can’t hear a dial tone in the headset.

I hear static.

Make sure your headset is charged.

Make sure your headset is subscribed to base. See Subscription button. Press the call control button on your headset.

If using a lifter, make sure the lifter is lifting the handset high enough to operate the hookswitch; set to a higher setting if necessary.

Adjust the configuration switch on the base until a dial tone is heard. Fine tune the listening volume on the headset.

If the volume is still too low, adjust the Listening volume dial on the base.

Make sure there is at least 12 inches between your base and your computer, and 6 inches between your base and your telephone. You may hear static as your headset is going out of range; move closer to the base.

 

The sound is distorted.

Lower the Speaking volume dial or Listening volume dial on the base. For most

 

 

telephones the correct setting is position 2.

 

 

If your desk phone has a volume control, lower until the distortion disappears.

 

 

If the distortion is still present, adjust the headset volume control to lower the

 

 

headset speaker volume. If the distortion persists, lower the Listening volume dial

 

 

on the base.

 

 

Make sure there is at least 12 inches between your base and your computer, and 6

 

 

inches between your base and your telephone.

 

 

 

 

I hear echo in the headset.

Lower the Listening volume dial and Speaking volume dial on the base. For most

 

 

telephones, the correct setting is position 2.

 

 

If the audio level is too low in this position, adjust the headset volume control to

 

 

increase the headset speaker volume.

 

 

If your speaking volume is too low for your listener in this position, adjust the

 

 

position of the headset to make sure the microphone is as close as possible to

 

 

your mouth.

 

 

Adjust the Configuration switch. The most commonly used position is “A”, which is

 

 

the default position.
