How to connect controller to headset

Plug the QD to the QD of any Jabra GN corded headset.

How to connect controller to PC

Plug the USB plug into a free USB port on your PC. Once connected, the active mute and hookswitch buttons will be illuminated.

The first time connected, your PC displays a small pop-up message in the task bar to indicate that a new device has been found. You are now ready to use the controller.

How to adjust volume on the controller

Use the wheel at the center of the controller to adjust the volume. Turn clockwise to turn up and

counterclockwise to turn down. You will hear a soft click in the headset each time you adjust the volume.

When you reach maximum volume, the headset will beep twice as a warning. We recommend that you do not use the headset at full volume.

How to mute the headset

It is possible to mute the microphone on the headset so that no sound/voice will be transmitted from the headset to the PC.

By tapping the mute button the microphone is now muted. The lights will go from a solid green to pulsating red. It will continue to pulsate red while muted.

To un-mute: tap
the mute button
again and the
light will go from	Green when not muted
pulsating red to
solid green.
	Red when muted

How to answer a call from your PC SoftPhone

When a softphone call arrives, you will hear a ring tone in the headset.

If you are using a Jabra-supported softphone*, then answer by tapping on the hook-switch button on the USB controller; tap again to hang up when you are done. Softphone control requires that you install Jabra PC Suite (described later in this manual).

For other softphones, use the native interface on your computer to answer and hang up.

When you are using a supported softphone, the controller lights work as indicated to the right.

You also have the option of rejecting an incoming call by pressing and holding the assigned Soft button. The incoming call will then be rejected.
