MICROPHONE SENSITIVITY SETTING
Use the Microphone +/– buttons to adjust voice detection sensitivity levels. Press +
for more voice detection sensitivity and – for less. The highest + setting will pick up
your voice even at a whisper.
The most sensitive settings should be used in very quiet environments with little or no
back ground noise. Experiment with the Microphone Sensitivity level to ensure voice
detection picks up the beginning and end of each sentence.
Remember, what you hear in your headset is what other members of the network
will hear.
