UK D HEADSET/HANDSET SELECTION Pressing the Headset Button (2) on the base unit selects Headset or Handset mode. The Headset Indicator (1) will be illuminated when in Headset mode and off when in Handset mode. DK The same function is provided by the Talk Button (19) on the remote pack. PLACING A CALL USING THE HEADSET E F To place a call using the headset, the system must be in Headset mode. Take the handset off the hook and dial in the normal way. You will then be able to talk through your headset. When the call is complete, return the telephone handset to the cradle. Tip: By selecting Handset mode after completing your call, you will conserve the remote pack battery power and extend the remaining available talktime. You can achieve this by pressing either the Headset Button (2) or the Talk Button (19) immediately on conclusion of the call. Note: If you have installed a Plantronics Handset Lifter please refer to the section "Making a call using the Lifter" on page 10. I RECEIVING A CALL USING YOUR HEADSET When your telephone rings take the handset off the hook. Ensure that your CA40 Adapter is already in Headset mode. You will then be able to talk through your headset. When the call is complete, return the telephone handset back to the cradle. N NL Note: If you have installed a Plantronics Handset Lifter please refer to the section "Receiving a call using the lifter" on page 10. PLACING AND RECEIVING A CALL USING THE HANDSET In Handset mode the telephone can be used to make and receive calls in the normal way. P SF S 5 UK ADJUSTMENTS Before adjusting Listen Volume, Speak Volume, Listen Tone and Audible Cue Volume, ensure the system is in Headset Mode. When setting Listen Volume, Speak Volume and Listen Tone, you will hear a beep through the headset each time you press these buttons. A double beep indicates you have reached the upper or lower limit and a triple beep indicates that the mid-range setting has been reached. LISTEN VOLUME ­ HOW OTHERS SOUND TO YOU The Listen Volume can be adjusted by pressing the Volume Up (17) or Volume Down (18) button on the remote pack to increase or decrease volume to a comfortable level. Alternatively you can use the Up (3) or Down (4) button on the base unit, which provides the same function. SPEAK VOLUME ­ HOW YOU SOUND TO OTHERS Press the Mode Button (5) once to select Speak Volume Adjust. The Speak Volume Indicator (6) will illuminate, and you will hear a triple beep in your headset. Adjust the volume level using the Volume Up (3) or Volume Down (4) button. Once you are satisfied with the setting press the Mode Button (5) once to select Listen Tone, twice to return to default or simply wait 10 seconds for the new setting to be saved. The base unit Up (3) and Down (4) buttons will then revert to their default function of listen volume adjust. This control can only adjust the speak volume for the headset and cannot adjust the speak volume for the telephone handset. Tip: Normally the speak volume adjustment need only be made once when initially setting up the CA40 Adapter, and should not require adjustment thereafter. Too high a speak volume level can cause audio problems so be careful to set this at a comfortable level for the person at the other end. Refer to the Troubleshooters Guide on page 12 for more information. LISTEN TONE To adjust the tone (bass and treble) that you hear through the headset press the Mode Button (5) twice. The Tone Indicator (7) will illuminate and you will hear a triple beep in your headset each time the Mode Button (5) is pressed. Use the Up (3) or Down (4) button to adjust the base and treble to your preferred levels. Once you are satisfied with the setting press the Mode Button (5) or simply wait 10 seconds for the new setting to be saved. The base unit Up (3) and Down (4) buttons will revert to their default function of listen volume adjust. This adjustment only affects bass and treble you hear through the headset. It cannot adjust the headset speak tone (the tone level that the caller hears), nor the handset listen or speak tone levels. 6 UK AUDIBLE CUE VOLUME The CA40 amplifier provides audio feedback for most operator adjustments. The audio indications ­ or Audible Cues - take the form of different toned beeping sounds for different functions. The intensity of the Audible Cues can be set at three volume levels (low, medium and high) or turned off. To increase or decrease the beep volume level hold down the Mute Button (15) and press the Up (17) or Down (18) button. You will hear a triple beep on each press, which gets louder or quieter according to the adjustment. Even though you hear the audible cues, the caller does not, even if you make adjustments midway through a call. UK D DK MUTE E F Press the Mute Button (15) once to stop the caller hearing you (you can still hear them). When the Mute Button (15) is pressed, the Mute Indicator (16) will blink, and you will hear a beep in the headset every 15 seconds. Press the Mute Button (15) again to permit the caller to hear you. The Mute Indicator (16) blink and the regular beep will both stop. PAGE A short press on the Page Button (8) on the base unit causes the buzzer on the remote pack to emit two short rings. This feature allows you to be paged if you are away from your desk. A long press (at least three seconds) on the Page Button (8) causes the remote pack buzzer to continually ring until any button on the remote pack is pressed. You can use this feature to locate a lost remote pack. I N Note: The Page feature will not work if the remote pack is out of range. DISABLING THE REMOTE PACK RINGER NL P SF S 7 If you do not wish the remote pack buzzer to ring to alert you to an incoming call, then the ringer can be disabled by switching the Ringer Switch (23) to the Off position (position 0). The default position is On (position I). Note: The remote pack buzzer can only operate as a ring alert if you have installed a Plantronics Handset Lifter, otherwise it will only operate when activated by the page function. The page function will still activate the remote pack buzzer even if the ringer is switched off. UK OUT OF RANGE WARNING The Out of Range Indicator (14) will blink when the remote unit gets close to the range limit. When this occurs you should walk back towards the base unit until the Out of Range Indicator (14) stops blinking. If you walk away from the base unit you will eventually exceed the maximum operating range for the CA40 Adapter. Any active call will be suspended and a double beep will sound in your headset every 10 seconds to warn you that you are out of range. The double beep will cease and the Out of Range Indicator (14) will extinguish once you return within range and any active call will be taken off mute allowing you to resume your conversation. Tip: It is strongly advised that you avoid walking out of range when on an active call as you may find the call takes some time to re-establish after returning into range. LOW BATTERY WARNING When the remote pack battery is running low (approx. 5 minutes talk time remaining), an audible warning will be heard through the headset as a single beep repeating every 10 seconds. Soon after hearing this warning, you should recharge the remote pack, or change to a freshly charged battery (if you have purchased the optional spare battery). LISTENING TO AN EXTERNAL AUDIO DEVICE The CA40 Adapter provides the option of using the headset to communicate with one additional audio device apart from the telephone, e.g. a PC soundcard. This feature allows you to use your headset with other audio devices such as voice recognition software or sound recording/playback devices. This additional audio source is referred to as external audio in the remainder of this guide. The External Audio Cable (41) must be connected between the CA40 and the audio device via the External Audio Cable Port (33). USING EXTERNAL AUDIO To listen to the external audio, press the External Audio Button (9). The External Audio Indicator (10) is illuminated when external audio is active. Your headset is now switched to send and receive audio to/from the external audio device rather than the telephone. If you are engaged in a telephone call using your headset when the External Audio Button (9) is pressed, the listen volume level from the telephone will be automatically lowered permitting you to hear the caller in the background together with the external audio source. However the caller will no longer be able to hear you. When in external audio mode, listen volume control and the tone adjustments for the headset when listening to a call can also be used to adjust the volume and tone of the external audio source. If you wish to make a call or pick up an incoming call whilst listening to external audio, press the Headset Button (2) or Talk Button (19) which reverts the CA40 to Headset mode, and allows you to proceed with the call through your headset as normal. 8 UK Note: Any adjustment to listen volume and tone when in external audio mode will also affect the settings when listening to a subsequent call through your headset. However, the headset speak volume adjustment described on page 4 only affects speak volume to the telephone. The speak volume to the external audio device cannot be adjusted by the CA40 controls. UK D RECHARGING THE REMOTE PACK To recharge the remote pack, place it into the Remote Pack Charger Bay (25) in the base unit. During charging, the Remote Pack Charger Indicator l (11) on the base unit will be illuminated. When the remote pack is fully charged, the Remote Pack Charger Indicator I (11) on the base unit will extinguish. A completely depleted battery will require approximately 3 hours of charge time to fully recharge. DK E CHARGING AN OPTIONAL SPARE BATTERY (Refer to the diagram on page 4 ...
