Headset Key

DS1000 Release Notes
G
Handsfree and Handsfree Answerback
An extension in the Headset mode can receive normal voice-announced Intercom calls
(depending on the setting of 1807-Headset Voice-Announced Intercom calls). The exten-
sion user can respond to the voice-announced call by speaking toward the phone (just like
non-headset extensions). To answer the voice-announced call in the headset, the user just
presses SPK after hearing the voice-announcement.
G
Microphone Mute
While on a headset call, the extension user can press MIC to mute (i.e., turn off) the headset
microphone. While responding to an Intercom call using Handsfree Answerback, pressing
MIC mutes the Handsfree microphone.
G
Off-Hook Signaling
Trunk Calls
Depending on the setting of 1802-Off-Hook Signaling for CO Calls, an extension in the
headset mode can receive either Camp On beeps or Off-Hook Ringing for incoming trunk
calls (just like non-headset extensions).
Intercom Calls
Depending on the setting of 1802-Off-Hook Signaling for Intercom Calls, an extension in the
headset mode can receive either Camp On beeps or Voice Over announcements from a co-
worker (just like non-headset extensions).
Hotline Calls
Depending on the setting of 1802-Off-Hook Signaling for Hotline Partner, an extension in
the headset mode can receive either Camp On beeps or Voice Over announcements from their
Hotline partner.
G
Paging
Internal Paging announcements broadcast over the telephone speaker while the extension is in
the Headset mode.
G
Transfer
Screened and unscreened transfers work just like non-headset extensions. For example, if a
headset extension user presses SPK to answer a screened transfer, the call will connect to their
headset when the transferring party hangs up.
Handsfree Transfers always connect to the headset extension's headset, not speakerphone.
G
Volume Control
While on a headset call, the extension user can press VOL Up or VOL Down to adjust the
receive volume in the headset.
A keyset user can have a key on their telephone or DSS Console assigned as a Headset key. The
user presses the key to enable or disable the headset mode, as an alternative to using the #HL User
Programmable Feature. The key lights while the extension is in the Headset mode, and is off while
the Headset mode is disabled.
If an extension user is on a call, pressing the Headset key automatically switches the active call to
the headset. Pressing the Headset key again switches the call back to Handsfree.
