Headset base and handset lifter installation
Installation options
You have three installation options:
Option 1: Connect the handset lifter to a corded phone (pages
23). This option enables you to answer calls even if you are away from the telephone base.
For this option, you can use the headset with a single line or multiple line corded telephone (such as the AT&T 1080, 1070 or 1040) or a digital business system (such as a proprietary PBX telephone system). The handset lifter (lifter) works with the cordless headset to provide a complete communication solution for most corded telephones. The lifter raises and lowers its switch hook presser to answer, make and end phone calls. The ring detector provides an incoming call indication through the cordless headset, so you can answer calls even when you are away from the telephone base.
Option 2: Connect the headset to a telephone wall jack (page
This option enables you to use the headset with a single telephone line with or without a telephone.
Option 3: Connect the headset to a corded or cordless telephone
(page
25). You can use the provided line splitter to
connect the headset to a telephone.

About internal and auxiliary ring detectors
The internal or auxiliary ring detector detects the telephone ringer and sends a ring tone to the headset earpiece.
If you installed the lifter over the top of the corded phone speaker, the internal ring detector will recognize when the phone rings. However, if your corded phone speaker is located elsewhere on the phone, stick the auxiliary ring detector to the speaker as shown below.
