Troubleshooting I have my headset and mobile connected; how do I connect them both to Calisto 800? Automatic Reconnect: • If a Voyager Pro+ or Voyager Pro UC is used, go to “Bluetooth” menu in Calisto and select “Connect Both”. They should both automatically reconnect even if Headset is still actively connected to the Mobile. These 2 headsets have special firmware to allow automatic reconnect. Note: If an iPhone is used, it should also allow the automatic reconnect.
The Tx or Rx audio quality on my Calisto sounds muffled or distorted? • If the Calisto unit is used by several people at the same time, users should be positioned either in front or the back of the unit for optimal microphone pick-up. • For small group calls, we highly recommend that the PA50 Wireless Mic be used as it provides flexible 360 degree room coverage.
Can I access Voicemail on Calisto? • Yes, Calisto supports PSTN Voicemail and Lync/Microsoft Office Communicator R2 Voicemail. In the case of PSTN, it requires the user subscribe to the service from their phone provider and enter the Voicemail Access number under Settings>Landline Voicemail>Voicemail Access. In the case of Lync/Microsoft Office Communicator R2, it requires an enterprise to have enabled Unified Messaging application from Microsoft.
