telephone and plug it into the handset jack (#10)
indicated by the handset symbol.
2. Connect one end of the supplied telephone cable
to the telephone jack (#11) indicated by the
telephone symbol. Connect the other end
to the handset jack on your telephone.

TELEPHONE HANDSET PROGRAMMING
Please perform the following procedure to configure the HAA20 for your
particular telephone.
1. Set the Telephone Type switch (#4) on the front panel to the 'C' position
and determine if the system performance is acceptable by making
a call to another party.
Note: If the LED is illuminated, switch the Mute Switch to the Mouth
symbol for conversation.
If performance is acceptable, skip the remaining steps in this section.
If performance is not acceptable, follow these steps for the HAA20 to
optimize its setup for your particular telephone.
2. Set the Telephone Type switch (#4) on the front panel to the “E” position.
3. Set the Mute switch (#3) to the mouth position.

5. Turn the HAA20 over and place the microphone portion of the telephone
handset over the area labeled Buzzer (#12).
6. Push the Scan switch (#13) for no more
than 1 second.
Note: You should hear tones from the HAA20.
7. When the tones stop, setup procedure
is completed.
Note: If the tones continue for more than 30
seconds, stop the process by pressing the Scan
switch again. Then try the procedure
again from step 5. If the tones continue
for more than 30 seconds again, contact
Bogen for technical assistance.
8. Place the handset back on the cradle
of your telephone.
MANUAL MODE
The HAA20 also allows users to manually step through the different configu-
ration settings. Following the steps below, the user can select the optimum
configuration. Typically this would only be done if either the Auto Learn was
unable to select the optimum configuration setting or if many HAA20 ampli-
fiers were to be set to the same configuration as in a call center application.
1. Set the Telephone Handset/Headset switch (#5) on the front panel to the
Handset position.
2. Remove the telephone handset from its cradle and dial the number of a
person to assist you in configuring the HAA20 by listening to the quality of
your voice as you go through the seven different settings.
Note: Each of the seven configuration settings is accessed using the scan
switch and is identified by its own unique tone. The tones sound like Do,
Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti.
3. Once the call is established, put on the headset and set the Telephone
Handset/Headset switch (#5) to the Headset position.
4. Press and hold the Scan switch (#13) for approximately 3 seconds until
the first tone is heard. You will have 12 seconds to test the unit's perform-
ance using this setting. If the performance is acceptable, then wait for 2
short beeps from the HAA20 and the configuration will be stored.
5
If the performance is not acceptable, push the scan switch again within
12 seconds for the next setting and test again. Repeat this process until you
find the setting that gives the HAA20 acceptable performance. The unit will
continuously rotate through the available settings as the Scan switch is pressed.
5. After the optimum setting is stored, terminate the call by putting the tele-
phone handset back on its cradle. The configuration process will be completed.
OPERATION
It is recommended that you call someone to help you make initial volume
adjustments and enable you to get familiar with using the HAA20 before
using it for business service.
Perform the following steps to operate the HAA20.
1. Ensure that the Mute switch (#3) is in the mouth position and the
Telephone Handset/Headset switch (#5) is in the headset position.
2. Remove the handset of your telephone from its cradle.
3. Wait until you hear a dial tone and dial the number of the party you
wish to contact.
4. Adjust the receive volume of the Headset for a comfortable listening level.
5. If the person on the other end of the line has trouble hearing you, adjust
the MIC volume control.
6. Place the Handset of your telephone back on its cradle to terminate a call.
Note: The handset of your phone still controls the state of your phone
(hung up or off hook).
You may at anytime during a call switch between the handset of your
telephone and your Bogen Headset by using the Telephone Handset/Headset
switch on the front panel of the HAA20.
To mute your microphone, set the Mute switch to the symbol of the mouth
with an “X” over it. The LED on the front panel will light continuously when
the Mute is on. To take the mute off, set the Mute Switch to the symbol of
the mouth and the LED will turn off.
