WARNING:
Do not remove the controller from your PC while the firmware is being updated and make
sure your computer will not shut down or go into sleep or standby mode during the process. (Should
a disconnection unintentionally occur, please retry from step 1)
To apply a firmware update:
1. If you have not already done so, then attach your controller to your computer.
2. If you have not already done so, then download the firmware update from Jabra and save it on your hard disk
or network in a location where you can see it from your computer.
3. On your PC, use the Start menu to run the firmware-update application of the Jabra PC Suite.
4. Follow the instructions on your screen to identify your controller model, select the firmware update file and
apply it. See also the Jabra PC Suite online help for more details.
how To use The conTroLLer wITh a mobILe Phone
The controller includes a Bluetooth circuit, which enables the controller to connect directly wirelessly to a mobile
phone or another Bluetooth sound source. When connected to a mobile phone, you will be able to answer and
end calls using the buttons of the Jabra LINK 280 controller.
Pairing the headset to a mobile phone
To use your controller with a mobile phone, you must pair the controller with your phone. Once they are paired,
the controller will automatically connect to the mobile phone whenever it is in range (i.e., you should only need
to pair the two devices once). The controller must remain connected to your computer, because it requires
power from the USB connection.
How to pair the headset with a mobile phone using Jabra PC Suite:
1 Connect your controller to your computer and run the Jabra Control Center (see above).
2. Go to the Softbuttons tab of the Jabra Control Center. Here you see two drop-down lists for assigning
functions to each of the soft buttons of the controller.
3. Decide which of the two soft buttons you would like to use to control your mobile phone. Open the matching
drop-down list and select Mobile from the list.
4. The controller now lights blue, which indicates that the controller is in pairing mode. This means that it is
advertising itself for pairing with other Bluetooth devices.
5. Make sure that Bluetooth is active on your mobile phone and put your phone into Bluetooth finding mode.
The exact procedure for doing this varies by mobile phone manufacturer and model — see your mobile
phone manual for details.
6. Your phone now looks to see if any nearby Bluetooth devices are advertising themselves for pairing — this
should include your controller. Use your phone’s controls to identify and select the “Jabra LINK 280” device.
Your phone may also ask for the controller’s pass code. The pass code for all Jabra devices is 0000 (four zeros);
if necessary, enter this code into your phone and commit the code (e.g., by pressing on an OK button).
7. Your phone will now attempt to connect to the Jabra LINK 280 controller and then shows you the result of the
attempt. If the attempt fails, please try again. If you are still having trouble, please check your mobile phone
documentation and/or contact technical support for Jabra and/or your mobile phone.
