4a. Using the HNT1 Phone with Skype

®

Connecting the HNT1 USB Phone

When the USB Phone is connected to a computer, the LCD backlight will turn on

and the device will connect to the installed Net-Talk™ software. When the

connection has been established,

USB Phone

is displayed, indicating the device is

ready for use.

Note: If

Connecting…

keeps showing on the display in Windows XP/2000, the

device might have a problem communicating with Skype. Please, refer to the
“Troubleshooting” section of this manual to resolve this problem.

Specifying a Audio Playback Device

When the Internet USB Phone is connected for the first time, Windows will reset its

audio settings to use the USB Phone as the default audio in/out device. In this

situation, the USB Phone will take over your current sound and speakers’ settings.

To continue to use your original soundcard and speakers for standard audio

playback, you can manually specify a preferred audio playback device (e.g., your

sound card or USB speaker) while at the same time, continue to use the USB

Phone as the default audio input/output device in Skype®.

To specify a sound device for audio playback in Windows, go to Control Panel >

Sounds and Audio Devices (or Sounds and Multimedia) > Audio and select a

desired device in the Sound playback section.
