Returning to the
Headset After a
Long Delay
Certain brands of headsets enter a power-saving mode that prevents the
telephone from ringing for one or more calls when
both of these
conditions are true:
■
The headset amplifier buttons for Mute and On are both set to On .
■
The handset is off the phone for a long time (for example, overnight).
It may take a few minutes for your headset to return from the
power-saving mode to the active mode when calls first come in, so your
telephone may not ring until the headset has returned to active mode,
and you may miss a call.
If you plan to not use the headset for a long time, 3Com recommends
that you set the mute and headset buttons on the amplifier to
Off and
hang up the handset on your telephone. When you are ready to receive
calls again, set up the headset for receiving calls:
1 Pick up the handset on your telephone and set it on your desk.
2 Put on the headset.
3 On the amplifier, set the headset button to On .
