NEC 1093099 Manuale Utente

◆ 85

A keyset 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, the headset provides privacy not available 
from Handsfree.

Headset Compatibility also provides the following features. (Note that while an extension is in the Headset 
mode, the system ignores all hookswitch depressions.)

❥

If programmed and connected, Background Music will broadcast over the telephone speaker while the 
extension is in the Headset mode.

❥

An extension user in the Headset mode can press 

 and 

to control the volume 

of any call ringing their phone.

❥

An extension in the Headset mode can receive normal voice-announced Intercom calls, depending on sys-
tem programming. The extension user can respond to the voice-announced call by speaking toward the 
phone (just like non-headset extensions). To answer the voice-announced call in the headset, the user just 
presses 

 after hearing the voice-announcement.

❥

While on a headset call, the extension user can press 

to mute (i.e., turn off) the headset micro-

phone. While responding to an Intercom call using Handsfree Answerback, pressing 

 mutes the 

Handsfree microphone.

Outside Calls
Depending on system programming, an extension in the headset mode can receive either Camp-On 
beeps or Off-Hook Ringing for incoming outside calls (just like non-headset extensions).

Intercom Calls
Depending on system programming, an extension in the headset mode can receive either Camp-On 
beeps or Voice Over announcements from a co-worker (just like non-headset extensions).

Hotline Calls
Depending on system programming, an extension in the headset mode can receive either Camp-On 
beeps or Voice Over announcements from their Hotline partner.

Paging
Internal Paging announcements broadcast over the telephone speaker while the extension is in the Head-
set mode.

Transfer
Screened and unscreened transfers work just like non-headset extensions. For example, if a headset 
extension user presses 

 to answer a screened transfer, the call will connect to their headset 

when the transferring party hangs up. Note that Handsfree Transfers always connect to the headset exten-
sion’s headset, not speakerphone.

Volume Control
While on a headset call, the extension user can press 

 and 

 to adjust the 

receive volume in the headset.

A keyset user can have a Feature Key on their telephone or DSS Console assigned as a Headset key. The 
user presses the key to enable or disable the headset mode, as an alternative to using the 

 User Pro-
