Installing your headset

Before you connect your headset please ensure that any volume settings on your
telephone are turned down to avoid any unnecessary discomfort. 
There are two ways of connecting your BT Accord headset to your telephone.

1) Direct connection

If you have a BT Converse, Relate 3000 or any other telephone with a dedicated
headset port, simply plug the headset directly into the headset port on your
telephone. You do not need to use the configuration switch. Features such as
mute and volume control will be driven by your telephone. Please refer to the
instruction manual for your telephone if you are unsure how to do this.

2) Connection using the configuration box

If you do not have a headset port on your telephone you will need to use the
configuration box. The configuration box allows you to connect the headset to
your telephone and switch between the headset and handset. Please note that
your telephone cord must be fitted with a standard RJ11 plug (this is the type of
plug used on most telephones).

How to install and configure the configuration switch

1.  Disconnect the handset cord from your telephone
2.  Connect the cable from the configuration switch into the handset socket of 

your telephone

3.  Connect the handset cord to the handset socket of the configuration switch 

(the socket next to the cable, indicated by the picture of the handset)

4.  Connect the headset plug to the headset socket of the configuration switch 

(on the front of the configuration switch, indicated by the picture of the 
headset, no

Congratulations, you are now connected!

Using the configuration switch

The 

headset/handset button

lets you choose between using the handset and

the headset. When the button is pressed down you can use the headset, when
it is raised you can use the handset.

Note 

you will always need to lift the handset to take/make a call and replace
the handset to end a call when using BT Accord 10 and 20 headsets.

The 

mute/talk button

lets you place a caller on hold by pressing down to the

mute position. The caller will not be able to hear you but you will still be able to
hear the caller. To resume the call press the button again.

The configuration switch does not need a battery to operate.

Quick disconnect

If you need to move away from your telephone during
your call but don't want to take off your headset,
simply disconnect the Quick Disconnector. This will
leave your caller on hold. 

Reconnecting the Quick Disconnector will reconnect
the call.
