6 PerSono Suite software
It is highly recommended that you install the PerSono Suite
software. Though your Savi Go system will operate without the
software running, it will limit the system’s capabilities.
3 the “manage aPI access Control” screen will pop
up stating that “another program is trying to access
Skype”. the name of the program will appear as
“PerSonoSuite.exe” with the publisher “Plantronics,
Inc.” You must select “allow this program to use Skype”
and click oK.
PerSono Suite software allows you to do the following with your
Savi Go system:
• Answer/end calls from the PC remotely with the headset
(requires use of supported softphone)
• Customise your headset and adapter settings to your personal
preferences
• Automatically manage your PC multimedia so you never miss a call
• Quickly access links to product support and software/firmware
upgrade information
Softphone support
For a list of softphones supported by PerSono Suite, refer to
www.plantronics.com/SoftphoneCompatibility PerSono Suite
software supports all the softphones on the list with no additional
steps by the user except Skype™.
To allow Skype to be a supported softphone in PerSono Suite,
please follow these steps:
4 to confirm that PerSono Suite is now supporting Skype,
go to the “PC Panel” tab in PerSono Suite and ensure
that Skype is listed under “Softphones”.
1 Ensure PerSono Suite software is running on your PC.
You will see a headset icon in the lower right-hand
portion of the PC tray bar when PerSono Suite software
is running.
2 If Skype is running on your PC, Skype will notify you of
the event that “PerSonoSuite.exe wants to use Skype”.
Go to the “new event” tab located in the upper right of
the Skype window and click on the red flag. You then
will need to click on the “PerSonoSuite.exe” link to be
taken to the “manage aPI access Control” screen.

audio
The system will support both narrowband and wideband audio from the PC.
Wideband
PC
Wideband audio delivers heightened speech clarity and life-like fidelity. However, wideband audio
consumes more battery power and has more stringent access criteria, which reduces the number of
systems that can be deployed in a small area.
Bandwidth
All PCs support wideband audio.
When switching between narrowband and wideband audio, you must re-establish the audio link for the
changes to take effect.

If this feature is set to ON, when a PC radio link is established,
Microsoft Office Communicator will assume the user is trying to
place a VOIP call and provide a dial tone.
The particular version of PerSono Suite software and headset/
base firmware running on your system is always reflected in the
VERSIONS fields.

audio sensing enabled
Audio sensing is a special feature supported by Plantronics
wireless devices that can detect audio signal at the USB port
and automatically establish a PC radio link between the base and
wireless headset without the user having to press the PC call
control button. If the parameter “Microsoft Office Communicator
dial tone enabled” is set to ON, every time the user presses the
PC call control button, the Microsoft Office Communicator dial
tone will be heard. However, the user may have pressed the PC
call control button to listen to music etc., and does not want to
hear the dial tone. In this case, if the user sets the “Audio sensing
enabled” parameter to “ON”, the radio link will be established
automatically when any PC audio is detected at the USB port,
thus eliminating the need for the user to press the PC call control
button.
When this parameter is disabled, automatic check for software/
firmware updates is disabled.
Check For Updates: You can choose to check for available
software/firmware updates at any time by clicking on the Check
For Updates button.
available Updates: Following an automatic or manual check for
updates, this field will be populated with any applicable software
and firmware updates.
Install: It is important to note that automatic checks for updates
does not include automatic download and install. The actual
download and install will only occur when you select at least one
item for the Available Updates list and click on this Install button.
