Note: Using the softphone mode on your USB headset
Certain USB headsets, such as those that come with a docking station, have two modes—
deskphone and softphone. To work with your phone, your headset must be in softphone
mode. If you cannot operate the phone from your headset, your headset may be in
deskphone mode. To switch modes, press and hold the headset hookswitch until you hear
a sound or message on the headset.
Compatible EHS Headsets
The EHS feature enables you to answer and end phone calls using controls located on the
headset. To use it, your headset must include a digital serial control interface in addition to the
standard analog headset jack (RJ-9) interface. The serial control interface requires an EHS
adapter that you can purchase from your headset manufacturer.
