Plantronics Hub Software

Plantronics Hub software (optional) for Windows enhances your speakerphone's capabilities, and, enhances your user experience when used with your PC.
For example, Plantronics Hub software provides:
• Integrated call control for popular softphones and Unified Communications (UC) clients
• Enhanced UC presence capabilities - more granular availability status means fewer interruptions
• Useful Preferences settings
• Automated software and firmware updates
Hub software loads when your PC is booted up and runs discretely in the background, requiring no user intervention except via the following:
Plantronics Control Panel — a one stop utility for all device, application, preferences and configuration options, and product information
Plantronics Update Manager — provides notification and facilitates installation for your speakerphone's firmware and Hub software updates

Troubleshooting

How do I know Calisto 610 is turned on?
Is there a visual indicator on the Calisto 610 that shows volume level?
What size room and how many participants does Calisto 610 support for group conference calls?
Pressing the volume +/- buttons while the unit is ON emits a volume adjustment tone.
No. There is no visual indication of volume level or volume adjustments on the Calisto 610.
NOTE The Calisto 610 has a mid-range default volume setting. It
provides audible indications as you adjust the volume and when you have reached the maximum or minimum volume level.
There are 2 variables to consider for this answer, and both involve the perceived audio by 8 listeners on the other (far) end of a Calisto 610 call:
1 The acoustic properties of the room: Not all rooms are created
equal, and room acoustics can vary significantly.
2 The subjective opinion (or hearing abilities) of the far-end listener(s)
which can also vary significantly
With these variables considered, in general Calisto 610 can be used in up to a 12x12 foot room with up to 8 participants.
