Tips
• You can adjust the volume only for the currently active audio mode. For example, if you increase
the volume while using speakerphone mode, you have not affected the headset mode volume.
• If you adjust the volume without saving the change, the volume will revert to the previously-saved
level the next time you use that audio mode.
• If you adjust the volume on a selected audio device directly (for example, if you adjust your
computer’s volume controls), the Check Audio Settings window might appear the next time you
launch Cisco IP Communicator. See the “Using the Audio Tuning Wizard” section on page 6.
Customizing Rings and Message Indicators
You can customize the way Cisco IP Communicator indicates the presence of an incoming call or a
new voice mail message for each of your lines. Customized ring sounds and other indicators can help
you quickly differentiate between multiple lines. For example, you can choose a chirping sound to
indicate an incoming call on Line 1 and a drumbeat to indicate an incoming call on Line 2
.
