INSTALLATION

Please install the CA40 DECT Adapter in accordance with the instructions detailed in the Quick Start Guide.

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.

The same function is provided by the Talk Button (19) on the remote pack.

PLACING A CALL USING THE HEADSET

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.

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.

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.

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.
