Maximizing Headset Features

The Plantronics Voyager Legend offers several features to enhance your user experience. These include voice commands for hands-free control, comfortable eartips for extended wear, and intuitive call management functions.

Using Voice Commands

Voice commands allow you to control your headset without pressing buttons. To activate voice control, tap the Voice button on your Voyager Legend. You can then issue commands like “pair mode” to initiate pairing or “check battery” to hear your battery level.

Common voice commands include:

  • “Answer” or “Ignore” for incoming calls
  • “Redial” to call the last number
  • “Call back” to return the last incoming call

Voice commands work best in quiet environments. Speak clearly and pause briefly after tapping the Voice button for optimal recognition.

Optimizing Eartip Comfort

Proper eartip fit is crucial for comfort and sound quality. The Voyager Legend comes with multiple eartip sizes. Try each to find the best fit.

To change eartips:

  1. Gently pull the current eartip off
  2. Push the new eartip onto the earpiece
  3. Twist slightly to lock in place

A well-fitted eartip should:

  • Feel secure without pressure
  • Block outside noise
  • Allow clear audio

If you experience discomfort, try a different size or material. Silicone tips offer durability while foam tips can provide a custom fit.

Managing Call Functions

The Voyager Legend simplifies call management with its intuitive controls. The main call button handles most functions:

Function Action
Mute Tap mute button
Adjust volume Press volume up/down
Check battery Tap call button when idle

To switch an active call between your headset and phone, press the call button for 2 seconds. This feature allows seamless transitions when privacy is needed.

Remember to check your user manual for detailed instructions on advanced features like managing multiple calls or using smart sensors.
