After installing the software, you will have an All Programs > Jabra > Jabra PC Suite folder in your Windows Start
menu. It provides links to the following programs:
- Jabra Control Center
Enables you to configure your controller from your PC.
- Jabra Device Firmware Updater
Enables you to update the controller firmware.
- Jabra Devices Service
Runs in the background and monitors your USB ports for Jabra devices. It makes sure that Windows will
recognize these devices and enables the Jabra Control Center and Softphone drivers to interact with them.
In addition to the above programs, the PC Suite also provides drivers for several types of softphones, including
Skype, Cisco IP Communicator and Microsoft® Lync™ 2010.
When you are using a supported softphone, you will be able to control that softphone using the buttons of the
controller. You can also talk using any softphone using its native graphic interface on your computer.
Note: Jabra is constantly evaluating the softphone market to see which new programs should be
supported with a dedicated driver. Contact your Jabra representative or see the Jabra web site for the
latest news on softphone driver development.
