Making a Speakerphone Call with Communications Software

Answering an Incoming Call

External Modems with Speakerphone

When you hear your phone ring, press the SPEAKER button.

If you do not hear your phone ring, you may not have the telephone's cord plugged into the modem's PHONE jack. If you are using your communications software to dial speakerphone calls, the software needs to be running in order for you to hear incoming calls.

Internal Modems with Speakerphone

See your modem's communications software manual for instructions.

Speaking Privately to a Caller

If you want to talk privately to a caller, you can use a phone handset instead of the speaker by lifting the handset. To use the speaker again, press the SPEAKER button and then hang up the handset.

Adjusting Speaker Volume

Press the up and down volume buttons on top of the modem (marked VOLUME).

Muting a Call

External Modems with Speakerphone

If you'd like to say something without the receiving party hearing you, you can press the MUTE button. When you mute a call, the ONLINE light will blink.

To turn off the mute feature, press MUTE again. (The ONLINE light will stop blinking and remain illuminated for the remainder of the call.)
