Customizing Your Phone
77
AUDIO
The
Audio
option on the IP phone allows you to set the audio mode for your IP phone, configure
headset settings, and personalize ring tones and tone sets.
AUDIO MODE
The 6873i allows you to use a handset, a USB or Bluetooth headset, or handsfree mode to
handle incoming and outgoing calls. The
Audio Mode
option provides different combinations
of these three methods to provide maximum flexibility in handling calls. There are four audio
mode options you can set:
AUDIO MODE
OPTION
DESCRIPTION
Speaker
This is the default setting. Calls can be made or received using the handset or
handsfree speakerphone. In handset audio mode, pressing the
button
on the phone switches to handsfree speakerphone. In Speaker audio mode, lift
the handset to switch to the handset.
Headset
Choose this setting if you want to make or receive all calls using a handset or
headset. Calls can be switched from the handset to headset by pressing
the
button on the phone. To switch from the headset to the handset, lift
the handset.
Speaker/Headset
Incoming calls are sent to the handsfree speakerphone first when the
button is pressed. By pressing the button again, you can switch back and forth
between the handsfree speakerphone and the headset. At anytime, lifting the
handset switches back to the handset from either the handsfree speakerphone
or the headset.
Headset/Speaker
Incoming calls are sent to the headset first when the
button is pressed.
By pressing the button again, you can switch back and forth between the
headset and the handsfree speakerphone. At anytime, lifting the handset
switches back to the handset from either the headset or the handsfree
speakerphone.
Notes:
1.
When the default (Speaker) audio mode is being used, if a USB headset is
connected, or when Bluetooth is enabled and a Bluetooth headset is paired, the
phone automatically switches the audio mode to Headset/Speaker. You can
manually change the audio mode to any of the other audio modes, but if you change
it to Speaker, upon reboot, the phone will detect the headset and revert back to the
last known Headset-related audio mode.
2.
If a headset is not connected, you can manually change the audio mode from
Speaker to any of the other audio modes, but upon reboot, the phone will detect
that there is no headset and revert back to Speaker audio mode.
