Plantronics Savi W740 - Manual (Page 25)

Softphone compatibility
Remote call answer/end from the headset is available for compatible softphones with no
additional steps by the user except Skype
™ . For a list of compatible softphones, visit
plantronics.com/software . For Skype support, follow the steps below.
1 Skype will display the following message during the install of Plantronics Unified Runtime
Engine “PlantronicsURE.exe wants to use Skype”. Choose “Allow Access” to connect.
2 You can also check the Savi W740 Skype connection status by going to Skype and checking the
Tools > Options > Advanced > Advanced Settings > “Manage Other Programs Access” setting.
Multi-Phone Status (MPS) is supported for Microsoft Lync/Office Communicator and Skype.
When a call is placed or received on your deskphone or mobile phone that is paired to a
Plantronics Bluetooth headset, your presence in Microsoft Lync/Office Communicator and
Skype will be automatically updated to reflect a busy status. When your call is terminated,
your presence will return to its previous state.
If you answer an incoming mobile call using the answer button on the mobile phone, the audio
will remain in the phone. If you answer an incoming call using the headset or base, the audio
will be in the headset.
If the mobile phone audio is in the mobile phone, you can move the audio to the headset by
short pressing the base mobile button when the LED is off. To move the mobile phone audio
from the headset back to the mobile phone, hold the base mobile button for 3 seconds until
the solid green LED turns off. The audio will be pushed back to the mobile phone.
You can combine the audio of any two devices by simultaneously holding the base buttons of
any two of the three base buttons until the LEDs become solid green.
This is useful as a mini-teleconference call.
While on a call, you can subscribe up to three additional headsets to your base for conferencing.
Join a conference call
1 While the base has an active link, place the guest headset into the primary user’s charging
cradle (this connects the headset to the base).
When the base subscription light stops flashing green and yellow and remains yellow, the
primary headset/user will hear a tone indicating a guest wishes to join the call.
2 Press the primary user’s call button to accept the guest headset within ten seconds. Otherwise,
the request is terminated and the guest will hear an error tone in their headset.
NOTE To connect a guest headset that is of a different variety to the primary headset, short press the
base subscription button while the base has an active link. Next, press the guest headset volume up
button until the indicator light turns on. When the base subscription LED stops flashing green and
yellow and remains solid yellow, the request to join will be heard in the primary user’s headset and the
primary user will have to press their call button within 10 seconds to accept the guest.
Exit a conference call
Guests’ headsets can remain as guests through multiple calls.
To remove a guest headset, press the guest headset’s call button or dock the primary user’s
headset in the charging cradle.
A single tone in the master headset will be heard as each guest leaves the call.

As you add headsets to the base, an additional headset icon will appear in the Plantronics
Control Panel screen with a number from 1 to 3 indicating the number of additional headsets
