After you set the base unit options for your headset and connect your headset to your phone, you can enable EHS.
To enable electronic hookswitch on your phone:
1 Connect your headset and EHS adapter to your phone.
See the Quick Start Guide for your phone on
your phone.
2 Navigate to Settings > Basic > Preferences > Headset > Hookswitch Mode.
3 Select one of the below modes for your specific headset:
Choose Jabra if an EHS-compatible Jabra headset is attached with an EHS cable or adapter.
Choose Plantronics if an EHS-compatible Plantronics headset is attached with an EHS cable or
adapter.
Choose Sennheiser if an EHS-compatible Sennheiser headset is attached with an EHS cable or
adapter. If your phone does not have a menu selection for Sennheiser, select Jabra instead.
Choose Regular Mode (default) if another headset is attached.
Change the Headset Mode
Headsets that come with a docking station have two modes: soft phone and desk phone mode. In order for you
to control your phone using your headset, your headset must be in soft phone mode. If you cannot operate the
phone from your headset, it is possible your headset is in desk phone mode.
To change to soft phone mode:
» Press and hold the headset hookswitch until you hear a sound or message on the headset.
