NEC DS1000 - Manual (Page 120)

You can use a customer-provided
headset on your phone in place of
the handset. Like using Handsfree,
the headset frees up your hands for
other work (like typing on your computer). In addition, the headset
provides privacy not available with Handsfree.
Ask your Communications Manager what types of headsets you
can use with your phone.
To enable the headset mode:
1. Unplug the telephone handset but leave it in the cradle.
2. Plug in the headset.
3. Press your Headset key.
Notes:
● You can have a Headset key on your telephone or your DSS
Console.
● The Headset key lights when your extension is in the Headset
mode, and is off while you have Headset mode disabled.
● If you are on a call, pressing the Headset key automatically
switches the active call to your headset. Pressing the Headset
key again switches the call back to Handsfree.
● While your extension is in the Headset mode, the system
ignores all hookswitch depressions.
When in the headset mode:
● Press a line key to place or answer an outside call.
OR
● Press to get Intercom dial tone.
OR
● If on a call, press to hang up.
