This section describes the base, its buttons and their functions.

Base buttons

Basics

 

When you press on a base button, you are opening a phone line/audio channel. Depending on

 

the circumstances, you won’t necessarily hear a dial tone until you’ve dialled from your phone.

 

The base buttons allow you to switch to a different phone line/audio channel.

 

Change your default outbound line

 

This feature sets the preferred outbound line when the headset call control button is pushed

 

while all lines are idle.

 

With the system idle, you can change your default outbound line by pressing the desired

 

outbound base button until it flashes green four times.

 

You can also change the default outbound line using the Plantronics Control Panel by going to

 

Start > Programs > Plantronics > Plantronics Control Panel > Device Settings > Base.

Base subscription button

The headset and base that came in the box are subscribed (connected) to each other. However,

 

if you wish to use a new headset or need to restore subscription to your current headset (base

 

subscription button is red), the units can be subscribed to each other by the following

 

methods.

 

The subscription button is the silver trim with four dots on the front of the base.

Automatic secure subscription

With your system idle, docking a new headset will automatically subscribe it to the base, making it the primary headset. The base subscription LED will blink green/red during subscription mode and remain green when the new subscription is established.

Manual secure subscription

With your system idle and your headset docked, double press the subscription button on the base. The subscription light will flash red and green. When the subscription light on the base becomes solid green, the headset and base are subscribed to one another.

Manual over-the-air subscription

1With your system idle and your headset undocked, double press the subscription button on the base. The subscription light will flash green and red.

2Press the volume up button on the headset for three seconds until the headset LED turns solid white. When the subscription light on the base remains solid green, the headset and base are

subscribed to one another.

NOTE If the base subscription LED goes solid red, after flashing red/green, the subscription attempt has failed and should be repeated.
