Positioning Your Station

You should adjust the position of the station on your desk or table to suit your indi- vidual needs and, if applicable, maximize the performance of the sound activated features. When using a speakerphone, the microphone and loudspeaker are farther from you than when you use a handset. Some positioning tips for speakerphones to consider include:

￿For the microphone to best detect your voice, speak within three feet of it and face the station.

￿Background noise may prevent the sound-activated switches from operating properly. Avoid placing the speakerphone where it will detect sounds from typewriters, keyboards, printers, paging systems, and other equipment.

￿Place the speakerphone on a hard surface and away from table edges. Do not place the telephone in corners or enclosures. Do not let obstructions come between you and the microphone.

If you are using an Impact SCS model, your telephone has an adjustable pedestal to allow you to select the most comfortable viewing angle. When you receive the telephone, the pedestal is in its lowest

position—flush against the pedestal.
