6 PerSono Suite software

It is highly recommended that you install the PerSono Suite software. Though your Savi Go 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 Savi Go system:

???Answer/end calls from the PC remotely with the headset

(requires use of supported softphone)

???Customise 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

For a list of softphones supported by PerSono Suite, refer to www.plantronics.com/SoftphoneCompatibility PerSono Suite software supports all the softphones on the list with no additional steps by the user except Skype???.

To allow Skype to be a supported softphone in PerSono Suite, please follow these steps:

1Ensure PerSono Suite software is running on your PC. You will see a headset icon in the lower right-hand portion of the PC tray bar when PerSono Suite software is running.

2If Skype is running on your PC, Skype will notify you of the event that ???PerSonoSuite.exe wants to use Skype???. Go to the ???new event??? tab located in the upper right of the Skype window and click on the red flag. You then will need to click on the ???PerSonoSuite.exe??? link to be taken to the ???Manage API Access Control??? screen.

3The ???Manage API Access Control??? screen will pop up stating that ???Another program is trying to access Skype???. The name of the program will appear as ???PerSonoSuite.exe??? with the publisher ???Plantronics,

Inc.??? You must select ???Allow this program to use Skype??? and click OK.

4To confirm that PerSono Suite is now supporting Skype, go to the ???PC Panel??? tab in PerSono Suite and ensure that Skype is listed under ???Softphones???.

Battery life

At the lower left-hand corner of the screen (and for all software screens), you will see one of the following icons indicating the approximate charge left in the headset battery.

Settings screen ??? headset and USB adapter

The Settings screen allows you to customise the adapter and headset to your preference. The Savi Go system is supplied with the default settings and can be changed as described in the Settings column below.

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.

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
