Headset base and handset lifter installation
Installation options
You have three installation options:
Option 1:
Connect the handset lifter to a corded phone (see pages
17-24). This option enables you to answer calls even if
you are away from the telephone base.
For this option, you can use the headset with a single
line or multiple line corded telephone (such as the AT&T
1080, 1070 or 1040) or a digital business system (such as
a proprietary PBX telephone system). The handset lifter
works with the cordless headset to provide a complete
communication solution for most corded telephones.
The lifter raises and lowers its switch hook presser to
answer, make and end phone calls. The ring detector
provides an incoming call indication through the
cordless headset, so you can answer calls even when
you are away from the telephone base.
Option 2:
Connect the headset to a telephone wall jack (see page
25). This option enables you to use the headset with a
single telephone line with or without a telephone.
Option 3:
Connect the headset to a corded or cordless telephone
(see page 26). You can use the provided line splitter to
connect the headset to a telephone.
