InSTallIng ThE Jabra Pc SuITE
To install the Jabra PC Suite, do the following:
1. If you have not already installed your softphone, then we highly recommend that you do so before you install
Jabra PC Suite. This will ensure that Jabra support is correctly added to your softphone program. If you add
a new softphone program to your computer after installing Jabra PC Suite, then we recommend that you
reinstall Jabra, which is quite easy.
2. Download the Jabra PC Suite installer from www.jabra.com.
3. Run the setup.exe program included with the download. This will install Jabra PC Suite on your computer.
4. Follow the instructions on your computer screen. Installation is very simple and should take just a minute or
so. Please note the following as you work through the installation wizard:
- Jabra PC Suite requires Microsoft .NET Runtime 3.5. If this is not already installed on your PC, then the setup
program will automatically download and help you install it (requires an Internet connection).
- The wizard will ask which components of the Jabra PC Suite you would like to install. Usually, you should
install all of them.
- If you are using Microsoft Windows Vista, you may see a “user account control” message; just click on “Allow” to
continue with the installation.
- The wizard will ask if you would like to start the Jabra Device Service when Windows starts (see also the de-
scriptions of these programs below). If you will often use your headset with a softphone, then we recommend
that you enable the Device Service.
- At one point, you may see a warning from Windows that the software "has not passed Windows Logo testing.”
This is expected and does not indicate a problem. You can safely click on the “Continue Anyway” button.
Jabra Pc SuITE ProgramS
After installing the software, you will have an All Programs > Jabra > Jabra PC Suite folder in your Windows
Start menu. It provides links to the following programs:
- Jabra Control Center
Enables you to congure your headset from your PC.
- Jabra Device Firmware Updater
Enables you to update the headset rmware.
- Jabra Devices Service
Runs in the background and monitors your USB ports for Jabra devices. It makes sure that Windows will recog-
nize these devices and enables the Jabra Control Center and Softphone drivers to interact with them.
In addition to the above programs, the PC Suite also provides drivers for several types of softphones, including
Skype, Cisco IP Communicator and others. Support for Microsoft Oce Communicator is also available if you are
using the Oce Communicator version of the headset.
When you are using a supported softphone, you will be able to control that softphone using the buttons of the
headset USB controller. You can also talk using any softphone using its native graphic interface on your computer.
Note: Jabra is constantly evaluating the softphone market to see which new programs should be sup-
ported with a dedicated driver. Contact your Jabra representative or see the Jabra web site for the latest
news on softphone driver development.
