After installing the software, you will have an All Programs > Jabra > Jabra PC Suite folder in your Windows Start
menu. It provides links to the following programs:

USING JABRA CONTROL CENTER WITH THE JABRA LINK 220/220A ENABLER
Jabra Control Center is the Jabra Control Suite program that enables you to congure your enabler. To run the
program, click on the Windows Start menu and select All Programs > Jabra > Jabra PC Suite.
When the enabler is connected to your computer, you will see the settings that are relevant for that enabler.
These settings can be set under the Settings tab as described below.
The Settings Tab (Jabra Link 220 Enabler only)
The options on the Settings tab enable you to control the Audio protection (Intellitone) for the Jabra Link 220
Enabler. To identify which version you have, check the underside of the LINK 220 enabler.
Use the settings in the Audio protection (Intellitone) area of the Settings tab to set the hearing-protection level
of your headset.
Hearing risk is evaluated as a function of both volume and duration. Therefore, the maximum sound level should
be lowered as the number of hours you spend using the headset increases. The enabler oer a choice of four
protection levels. These features protect your hearing by preventing acoustic shocks and limiting the maximum
noise exposure from the headset during your workday. This system is called Intellitone™, which is only available
from Jabra. All protection levels (including “none”) also feature Peakstop™, which oers protection against sudden,
loud audio spikes.
All three Intellitone levels above (other than “none”) meet and exceed de facto global protection levels, and are
compliant with NIOSH standards and EU health and safety codes of 85 dB(A).
In the Audio protection (Intellitone) area, mark the radio button for the Intellitone level that matches the number
of hours in which you use the headset each day.
Important: Check your local laws or regulations to nd out whether a specic protection level is mandated in
your area.
Updating the enabler Firmware
Firmware updates can sometimes improve the performance of your enabler and/or add new features. Visit the
Jabra web site to nd out if rmware updates are available for any of your Jabra products. You will be able to

WARNING: Do not remove the enabler from your PC while the rmware is being updated and make sure your
computer will not shut down or go into sleep or standby mode during the process. (Should a disconnection
unintentionally occur, please retry from step 1)
