Ryan Posted on Oct 25, 2013

I just got a new CS530 and it is connected to a Cisco 7940 via APC-41. The headset turns off after about 1 minute during the call. Any ideas? The headset is charged. I get the green light under the phone on the base, when it turns off, the green light goes out. But the call is still connected on the phone. The headset button on the 7940 is on. It has to be or the headset can't answer the call.

    Evidently the 7940 isn't compatible with the APC-41. The 7942 is, and have a request into IT to see if we have any of those models. Here is the steps to get it working on a 7942 in case someone else needs it:

Make sure the headpiece is charged. Turn the headpiece off by pressing the little black button on top of the earpiece and holding for about 5 seconds. Turn the earpiece back on again the same way. You should have a slow flashing blue light on the mic boom. The base station will now try to find the earpiece and within about 20 seconds the red light on the base should be steady and blue light on top should be on.
If this doesn't work you may need to manually pair the earpiece to the base by pressing and holding the Listen Volume Adjust + Button and headset Call Control Button on the earpiece until the light on the mic boom flashes red and blue repeatedly. As above, the base station will now try to find the earpiece and within about 20 seconds the red light on the base should be steady and blue light on top should be on.

SOURCE: Plantronics CS55 requires lifting handset on phone

Please note that your hand receiver has to be off the hook when using the headset.

This is correct, additionally you can use a handset lifter accessory, such as the HL1 or HL10.

Subscribing Headset to Base:

The headset and the base unit are supplied subscribed to each other. However, if you wish to use a replacement headset with the base unit (or if you lose your connection to the base unit), then you must re-subscribe as follows:

1. Return the headset to the charging base.

2. Press and hold both the + and - buttons on the back of the charging base until the red light on the front of the base starts to flash.

3. Let go of both buttons. The red light should continue to flash.

4. Press the mute switch (black wheel on the top of the headset) straight down until a green light appears on the headset, then let go of the wheel, and the light should remain on the headset.

5. Resubscription is finished when the red light on the base is fully illuminated and the green light on the headset disappears.

6. Remove the headset from the charging base lift telephone handset/press headset button if not using a handset lifter. The headset and base should now be connected.

7. If this procedure does not resolve your issue to try a system reset.

SOURCE: my headset will not hold a charge CS70VT

The only thing is to check the voltage output by the charger... usually 5 volts. The lights MAY blink even if voltlage is too low.

If it is OK, then battery in the headset has failed. Have the battery replaced or DIY if not under warranty.

The usual cause of this is to continue using batteries under load when one of the cells is totally depleted.

SOURCE: cs70 headset with a Cisco

This works if you're using the HL10 handset lifter with your CS70. The HL10 has a built-in microphone to pick up the vibrations from the ringing of the phone speaker under the handset. The HL10 came with an accessory package that has an extra round microphone on a cord to help the lifter if the telephone speaker is located in an out-of-reach location on the phone. You take that external microphone, plug it into a jack on the back of the HL10 and let it hang free making sure it's not resting on any surface. That should eliminate any ringing in your headset.

Good luck from Headsets Direct!

SOURCE: User has a iCom Bluetooth

Make sure that the Plantronics 500A base inteli-sensor switch is set to the number one setting (should be set on the one line, not the two line setting, on the right side of the 500A base unit). Also if you are using an EHS (Electronic Hook Switch) instead of an HL10 Handset Lifter, that could be the issue as well. The only other thing is to check the user guide for the hearing aid and make sure that there is not an "auto answer" setting that may need to be turned off. Here is a link below for the 500A / 510S user guide.

I have a new Apple 5s how do I open it to put the new SIM card in

On the side you have small hole. Take a paper clip, insert into that hole, and push a little. You will get SIM tray popped. Insert new SIM, and re-insert tray.

Problem with cisco 2513 routers

Check what version of software do you have. Do "dir" command and look at the file name. If it contains "K9" in the name, then it has "crypto" functionality, if it doesn't, then you need to find it (however it will be quite a challenge, as these routers are end-of-life for a decade...)

My Headset does´nt have dialtone, I was connecting to cisco phone 7941, 7970, 7911, and nothing, not work.

You can use a Plantronics S11 headset with a Cisco phone, however it is not the best compatible solution. To use an S11 with a Cisco phone, you have to make sure that you are plugging it into the handset receiver jack and not the headset jack. You will need to lift the handset receiver, set it off to the side, and then hang it up after each call. If you want a more compatible solution that you can plug into the actual headset jack and just press the headset button on the telephone to answer and hang up, then you would need one of the Plantronics "H-series headsets" with the Plantronics Cisco direct connect cable ( model 26716-01 ).

7940 cisco ip phone being powered by a power brick seems to loose power when connected to the ethernet. When ethernet is disconnected, power comes back. Ethernet works fine when phone is not connected. No...

Change out your cable from the wall drop to the phone. A Cisco phone is capable of receiving inline power (Power Over Ethernet) via the blue and brown pairs of the cable. It sounds like you may have a cable with a short in either the brown or blue, or both pairs, shorting out the power when it is connected via ethernet.

If you can, have your IT Tech check the cable, and the line through the wall to the switch.

'in call' volume cisco 7940

The handsets will eventually go bad. If it is every single handset that you have, the problem is with the system. But if the problem is only with a few of your phones, you might consider replacing the handsets. We at IdacomUSA.com have replacement Cisco handsets for sale at only $25. Hope this helps you out :)

Cisco ip phone 7940 does not ring for incoming calls.

It sounds like you have enabled Do No Disturb accidently. This can be turned on and off by pressing the DND softkey button along the bottom of the LCD display. You might need to press the 'more' softkey to display all options.
