FAQs

How do I activate or deactivate Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)?

ANC is typically activated automatically when the headset is on and connected. To manually toggle ANC, there might be a dedicated button on the headset. Check the headset's physical buttons for an ANC or noise-cancellation symbol.

Can I use the headset while it is charging?

Yes, you can typically use the EPOS ADAPT 561 II while it is connected to a power source via the USB-C cable for charging.

What is the battery life of the headset?

> Info needed: Specific battery life in hours for talk time and standby time.

How do I reset the headset to factory settings?

> Info needed: Specific instructions for performing a factory reset.

Is the boom arm detachable?

The boom arm is foldable and can be tucked away into the headband, but it is not designed to be fully detached.

What is the range of the Bluetooth connection?

The Bluetooth connection typically offers a range of up to 25 meters (82 feet) in open environments, which may be reduced by obstacles.

Does the headset support NFC pairing?

Troubleshooting

Headset not connecting to PC via dongle

Ensure the BTD 800 USB-C dongle is securely plugged in. Try a different USB port. Restart your PC. If issues persist, re-pair the dongle by holding the button on the dongle for a few seconds while the headset is on and near it.

No audio output or input

Check that the EPOS ADAPT 561 II is selected as the default audio device in your computer's sound settings and within your communication application (e.g., Microsoft Teams, Zoom). Ensure the volume is not muted or set too low.

Bluetooth connection to mobile device drops frequently

Ensure your mobile device is within Bluetooth range (up to 25 meters/82 feet). Reduce interference from other wireless devices. Charge the headset fully. Try forgetting the headset from your mobile device's Bluetooth settings and re-pairing.

Cannot launch Microsoft Teams with the dedicated button

Verify that the BTD 800 USB-C dongle is connected to your PC. Ensure Microsoft Teams is installed and running. Press the Teams button briefly; a long press might have a different function.

Audio quality is poor or distorted

Check for obstructions between the headset and the audio source. Ensure the headset is fully charged. Update the headset firmware if an update is available via the EPOS Connect software.
