Procedure
There are two main settings to keep in mind when connecting your corded headset to a Poly phone. Headset Memory Mode allows all incoming and outgoing calls to go through your headset. Electronic Hookswitch (EHS) is a feature that allows users to start and end calls by pressing buttons on their headset. Not all headsets support electronic hookswitch, and those that do must be connected to an EHS adapter or cable to use this feature.
Note: These settings are only for corded headsets.
