6 PerSono Suite Software

It is highly recommended that you install the PerSono Suite software. Though your Voyager PRO UC system will operate without the software running it will limit the system's capabilities.

PerSono Suite software allows you to do the following with your Voyager PRO UC system:

• Answer/end calls from the PC remotely with the headset (requires use of supported softphone)
• Customize your headset and adapter settings to your personal preferences
  • Automatically manage your PC multimedia so you never miss a call
• Quickly access links to product support and software/firmware upgrade information

Softphone Support

Audio Bandwidth

The system will support both narrowband and wideband audio from the PC. Wideband audio delivers heightened speech clarity and life-like fidelity. However, wideband audio consumes more battery power and has more stringent access criteria which reduces the number of systems that can be deployed in a small area. All PCs support wideband audio. When switching between narrowband and wideband audio, you must re-establish the audio link for the changes to take effect.

• See which Plantronics device is attached to your PC and working with PerSono Suite software.
• Customize how you want the PerSono Suite software to manage your multimedia when a call begins/ends.

Advanced Settings

Microsoft Office Communicator Dial-tone Enabled

If this feature is set to ON, when a PC radio link is established, Microsoft Office Communicator will assume the user is trying to place a VOIP call and provide a dial tone.

If this feature is set to OFF, when a PC radio link is established, Microsoft Office Communicator will sit idle.

"Microsoft Office Communicator Dial-tone Enabled" can be set to ON or OFF.

Microsoft Office Communicator Certified product:

Default Setting = ON

Standard product: Default Setting = OFF

Audio Sensing Enabled

Audio Sensing is a special feature supported by Plantronics wireless devices that can detect audio signal at the USB port and automatically establish a PC radio link between the base and wireless headset without the user having to press the PC call control button. If the parameter "Microsoft Office Communicator Dial-tone Enabled" is set to ON, every time the user presses the PC call control button the Microsoft Office Communicator dial tone will be heard. However, the user may have pressed the PC call control button to listen to music, etc., and does not want to hear the dial-tone. In this case, if the user sets the "Audio Sensing Enabled" parameter to "ON", the radio link will be established automatically when any PC audio is detected at the USB port, thus eliminating the need for the user to press the PC call control button.

"Audio Sensing Enabled" can be set to ON or OFF.

Microsoft Office Communicator Certified product: Default Setting = ON

Standard product: Default Setting = OFF
