IP Softphone 2050 Settings

If you enable Active Call when the USB Headset Adapter is selected as

the Ringing Speaker, then the external lamp also activates on incoming

calls.

Note: Any other application using the same audio channel as the

USB Headset Adapter also activates the external lamp.

Message Waiting

With Message Waiting enabled, the external lamp activates when the

IP Softphone 2050 registers a message waiting.

To enable Message Waiting, select the cadence you want from the list. To

disable Message Waiting, select None.

Priority

If more than one condition is enabled, then the external lamp activates

according to the condition with the highest priority. The priority of the

conditions, from highest to lowest, is as follows:

• Manual Override

• Headset Disconnect

• Active Call

• Message Waiting

Using the backlight

The USB Headset Adapter uses a backlight to illuminate the buttons,

letting you know when the IP Softphone 2050 is running.

To enable the backlight, select Use backlight.

Configuring Smart Functions

The Smart Functions button on the desktop USB Headset Adapter

provides quick access to IP Softphone 2050 features.

For information about configuring the Smart Functions button, see

“Customizing the Smart Functions menu” on page 67.
