Introduction

On this page you can find more information about the Interop tests we have done with the Plantronics headsets.

The most reliable/intelligent connection when using Headsets is to use the Headset with it's own Base station and connect it to the Maxwell 10 via the EHS connection.

For Plantronics you need the EHS cable APS-11

The Plantronics headset is working with the Lollipop release.

Signalling of incoming call (Ringing in headset)

The Maxwell 10 has a "HEADSET ON/OFF or RJ9/RJ45-OFF" setting that has the following function:
In the right top corner of the Maxwell 10, pulldown the settings menu and via the menu:
Headset ON - Ringing audio played via Headset during incoming ring.
Headset OFF - No audio signalling in Headset when receiving call.
This feature is implemented for 3e Party Audio support, and plays the ringtone like it is normally done via the speaker. But it also means that to play this ringing signal, the headset connection has to be enabled. When you try to answer the call, then the Headset connection will be disabled because it was already active. You need to press again to answer the call. The recommended setting for EHS headsets is to disable this feature.
