drop-down lists, then Windows and all Windows programs will send
and receive sound to/from your headset by default (which is probably
what you want).

o

If your headset is not shown as the current setting for these two drop-
down lists, then try to change the setting. If your Jabra device is also
not shown as an available option in these two lists, then check your
cabling and make sure your Jabra device is turned on.

See also your Windows documentation or online help for complete details about
how to work with the

Sounds and Audio Devices

control panel.

Many softphone applications (and other programs) provide settings similar to
those shown above for Windows. These settings will typically default to tracking
the Windows settings, but you may also be able to override Windows for
individual programs and/or modify the Windows setting itself via the program
settings. Please see your softphone documentation for complete details about
these.

Note: Jabra is constantly evaluating the softphone market to see which new
programs should be supported with a dedicated driver, such as currently exist for
Skype, Microsoft and Cisco. Contact your Jabra representative or see the Jabra
web site for the latest news on softphone driver development.
