Auto-Answer Feature⁚ An Overview
The Voyager Legend boasts a convenient auto-answer feature, designed for hands-free call management. This feature automatically answers incoming calls when you place the headset on your ear. This eliminates the need to manually press a button, providing a seamless and intuitive user experience, especially when you’re on the move or have your hands full.
To utilize the auto-answer functionality, ensure the feature is enabled in your headset settings. By default, it may be activated. However, it’s always good to check the configuration via the Plantronics Hub app or the headset’s internal settings, if accessible. When a call comes in while the headset is off your ear, simply placing it on will automatically connect the call after a short delay.
This delay allows you time to adjust the headset or decide whether to take the call. If you prefer to decline the call, you can remove the headset before it connects. The auto-answer feature enhances usability and ensures you never miss an important call, offering a truly hands-free communication solution.
Troubleshooting Pairing Issues
Encountering pairing problems with your Voyager Legend can be frustrating, but several common solutions often resolve the issue. First, ensure your headset is in pairing mode. The LED indicator should be flashing red and blue. If not, initiate pairing mode by tapping the voice button and saying “Pair mode” or by pressing and holding the call button until you hear “Pairing.”
Next, verify that Bluetooth is enabled on your phone or device and that it’s actively searching for new devices. If the Voyager Legend doesn’t appear in the list, try restarting your phone’s Bluetooth or even rebooting the phone entirely. Interference from other Bluetooth devices can also cause pairing issues. Try moving away from potential sources of interference like Wi-Fi routers or other active Bluetooth devices.
If problems persist, clear the pairing history on both your headset and your phone. On your headset, you may need to reset it to factory settings (refer to the relevant section in this manual). On your phone, unpair or forget the Voyager Legend from the list of connected Bluetooth devices before attempting to pair again. Finally, ensure your headset’s firmware is up to date using the Plantronics Hub app, as outdated firmware can sometimes cause pairing incompatibility.
Switching Between Multipoint and Singlepoint Modes
The Voyager Legend headset cleverly supports multipoint technology, allowing it to maintain connections with two Bluetooth devices simultaneously. However, you might sometimes need to switch between multipoint and singlepoint modes, depending on your usage scenario. Determining the current mode isn’t always straightforward, but usually, if you’re actively connected to two devices, you’re in multipoint mode.
Unfortunately, there isn’t a dedicated button or voice command to directly switch between these modes on the Voyager Legend. Instead, the headset intelligently manages the connection based on the active Bluetooth connections. To effectively switch to singlepoint mode, simply disconnect one of the paired devices. This can be done by either turning off Bluetooth on the device or by “forgetting” or unpairing the headset from the device’s Bluetooth settings.
Once one device is disconnected, the headset will automatically operate in singlepoint mode, focusing solely on the remaining connected device. To revert to multipoint mode, simply re-establish the Bluetooth connection with the second device. The headset will then automatically manage both connections, allowing you to seamlessly switch between audio sources from either device. Remember to ensure both devices are within Bluetooth range for optimal performance.
Voice Command Features⁚ What You Can Say
The Voyager Legend headset offers a convenient suite of voice commands, allowing you to manage calls and device functions hands-free. To activate voice command mode, simply tap the voice button located on the headset. After tapping, wait for the prompt before speaking clearly and distinctly.
A primary command is “Answer” or “Ignore” when receiving a call. Saying “Answer” will accept the incoming call, while “Ignore” will decline it. To initiate pairing mode, say “Pair mode” after tapping the voice button. This is useful when connecting to a new device or re-establishing a connection.
Other useful commands include “What can I say?” which will list available voice commands. Please note that certain features, such as voice dialing, may depend on your phone’s capabilities. While not an explicit command, the headset also supports voice prompts for various actions. For instance, when asked if you want to answer an incoming call, the headset will verbally present the options, allowing you to respond accordingly. Familiarizing yourself with these commands enhances the hands-free experience and optimizes your usage of the Voyager Legend.
Noise Cancellation and Audio Clarity
The Voyager Legend is engineered to deliver exceptional audio clarity, even in noisy environments. Its advanced noise cancellation technology actively minimizes background distractions, ensuring your voice is heard clearly by the person on the other end of the line. This is achieved through a sophisticated system, often utilizing multiple microphones to differentiate between your voice and ambient sounds.

The headset’s design and audio processing algorithms work in tandem to reduce wind noise, traffic sounds, and other environmental disturbances. This focus on clarity extends to the earpiece as well, providing rich and detailed audio for incoming calls and media playback. Whether you’re in a busy office, a crowded street, or driving in your car, the Voyager Legend strives to provide a premium audio experience.
The combination of noise cancellation and high-quality audio components ensures that you can focus on your conversations without being hindered by external noise. This is particularly important for professionals who rely on clear and effective communication in various settings. Experience the difference that superior audio clarity can make with the Voyager Legend.
Resetting the Voyager Legend to Factory Settings
Resetting your Voyager Legend to its factory settings can resolve various issues, such as pairing problems, unexpected behavior, or if you simply want to start fresh.
