Electra Elite IPK II Document Revision 1
Headset Operation 2 - 435
Headset Operation
Description
A multiline terminal user can utilize a customer-provided headset in place of the handset. Like using
Handsfree, using the headset frees up the user’s hands for other work. However, Headset Operation
provides privacy not available from Handsfree.
An extension with a headset has two options for when it appears busy to incoming callers. The headset
extension can be:
J
Busy to incoming callers when only one extension appearance is busy (i.e., Off-Hook Signaling
prevented)
- OR -
J
Busy to incoming callers only when both extension appearances are busy (i.e., Off-Hook Signaling
allowed)
As the headset plugs into a separate jack on the bottom of the telephone, the handset can still be
connected to the telephone. This provides you with the option to use the handset, headset or the
speakerphone for calls.
Conditions
While using the headset, the Headset function key becomes a release (disconnect) key
and no dial tone is heard from the speaker.
While in the headset mode, the hook switch is not functional.
The Headset Programmable Function key (05) and Headset service code (688) are not
available for the Electra Professional telephones.
An extension with a headset can still receive voice-announced Intercom calls and respond
handsfree.
A Headset Function key is required to answer or place a call in headset mode.
