OmniSound® – superior audio quality
OmniSound®'s patented audio optimisation technology guarantees impressive, crystalclear, full-duplex audio in both directions for efficient and effective virtual meetings. The
sound is powerfully transmitted to all attendees thanks to two hypersensitive microphones
with 360° audio pick-up and speakers.
OmniSound® delivers HD audio during VoIP calls. It also incorporates automatic echo cancellation and noise suppression, which minimises background noise interference, and an equaliser
for personal adaptation of the audio properties. You can walk freely around the room, talking,
sharing and discussing with others without loss of sound quality and without any annoying
audio clipping, muffling or echoes. It's as close to real sound as you can get.
Konftel AB hereby declares that this conference phone is in conformity with all the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC.
Please visit www.konftel.com/doc to view the complete declaration of conformity.
Warning!
Do not expose the Konftel Ego to water or moisture.
Warning!
Do not open the casing of the Konftel Ego.

DESCRIPTION
TURNING OFF AND ON
The Konftel Ego starts automatically when it is connected with a USB cable to a poweredup computer. The three LEDs show a faint green light to indicate that it is switched on.
The battery is simultaneously trickle charged.


Hold
(off/on) down for five seconds to manually switch the Konftel Ego off or on.
To save the battery when the unit is not being used and it is not connected via USB,
you can switch it off by pressing .
If the Konftel Ego is connected via USB, it will continue charging even if it is switched
off, but at a reduced rate.
The Konftel Ego switches off automatically after 3 hours to save the battery unless it
is being charged via USB or is connected via Bluetooth. Restart the Konftel Ego by
connecting it to a USB port or by pressing (off/on).
USING WITH A COMPUTER
The Konftel Ego transforms your computer into high-quality conferencing equipment
with OmniSound®. Unlike normal computer speakers and microphones, the Konftel Ego
provides full duplex (two-way audio) and efficient echo cancellation and static reduction.
The computer identifies the Konftel Ego as an echo cancellation device which means that
communication software usually leaves the audio processing to the Konftel Ego, resulting
in better sound quality. This can also be manually adjusted, for example in Skype®.

OmniSound® performs over the full audio bandwidth (50–7,000 Hz). However, there
may be some factors that limit the sound quality, depending on the equipment in the
network and that used by the other call participants.
If you are playing music, or some other one-way audio stream, the Konftel Ego switches
automatically to music mode so that the sound is not altered by OmniSound®.
CONNECTING TO A COMPUTER

Connect the computer to the Konftel Ego with a suitable USB cable.
The
icon is displayed on the Konftel Ego.
If Lync or Skype for Business is started on the computer, the status icon
is displayed instead.

The computer's operating system normally automatically selects the Konftel Ego as a
speaker and microphone. If the Konftel Ego is not automatically selected as an audio
device in the computer, you may have to access the computer settings and manually
select Konftel Ego.

If the computer has active software that is using the computer's built-in speakers, you
may need to restart the software to switch to the new speaker (Konftel Ego).
USING AS A COMPUTER SPEAKER (MUSIC MODE)
The computer normally only activates the speaker in the Konftel Ego if no other software
is running that can use the microphone. This means that the Konftel Ego acts as a
computer speaker and that the audio processing in OmniSound® is turned off so that the
sound is not altered.

When the Konftel Ego is connected via USB, you have to use the computer to control
buttons only work for music via Bluetooth.

To make a VoIP call from the computer, use Skype®, Microsoft® Lync®, Skype® for
Business, an online meeting service or some other VoIP (Voice over IP) software.
The Konftel Ego microphone will be automatically enabled when you start a VOIP call or a
recording using audio recording software on the computer. OmniSound® now handles full
duplex and echo cancellation.

USING WITH A BLUETOOTH DEVICE
The Konftel Ego can be connected to a mobile phone, tablet and computer via Bluetooth.
We are using a mobile phone in these examples. Bluetooth must be enabled in the mobile
phone's settings.
Audio can be transmitted in two different ways via Bluetooth. One is two-way and is
optimised for speech. The other (A2DP) has higher audio bandwidth, is one-way and is
optimised for music. The Konftel Ego supports both of these.

OmniSound® performs over the full audio bandwidth (50–7,000 Hz). However, limitations
in the telecommunications networks and in Bluetooth technology reduce the bandwidth
somewhat and the sound is compressed. This has an effect on the sound quality.
PAIRING AND CONNECTING
Two devices have to be paired before they can communicate with Bluetooth. You do this in
different ways depending on whether your telephone supports simplified pairing via NFC
(near-field communications) or not.
A maximum of eight devices can be paired with the Konftel Ego. If another device is then paired,
the oldest pairing information is deleted. It is also possible to delete all pairings, see page 12.
Pairing and connecting with NFC



NFC must be enabled on your mobile phone and the screen unlocked.
Hold the mobile phone next to the NFC symbol
on the Konftel Ego.
You might need to move the phone closer then further away from the Konftel Ego to
make contact via NFC. The range is only about one centimetre.
The mobile phone and the Konftel Ego are paired and connected.
Pairing without NFC

Turn Bluetooth on in your mobile phone.
This normally makes the phone visible to other Bluetooth devices and even starts a search on
some phones.

Hold
down for two seconds on the Konftel Ego.
This makes the Konftel Ego visible to other Bluetooth devices.
The
icon is displayed and the LEDs flash blue.


Start a search on your mobile phone.
Select the Konftel Ego from the list of devices found and select pairing. (It may take a
while for the devices to find one another.)
The devices are paired and usually automatically connect to one another.
The

icon is displayed on the Konftel Ego.
After 60 seconds in pairing mode, the Konftel Ego returns to normal mode even if
pairing has not been established.
USING WITH A BLUETOOTH DEVICE
RECONNECTING ALREADY PAIRED DEVICES
A pairing means that the phone and the Konftel Ego save information about one another.
This information is saved, even if the connection is broken.
The connection is broken if:
• The devices are far apart (Bluetooth has a range of about 10 metres).
• You turn off Bluetooth in your mobile phone.
The next time your mobile phone and the Konftel Ego are within range of one another, you
will not need to pair them. Simply connect.

when the phone is within range.
If you have a call in progress on your mobile phone, it is transferred to the Konftel Ego.
Some mobile phones try to connect automatically to a paired handsfree (Konftel Ego)
when you make or take a call.
USING AS A SPEAKER (MUSIC MODE)
The Konftel Ego functions as a powerful speaker for playing music from your mobile
phone. If your phone supports A2DP, you'll get the best audio quality. When music is
being played, the audio processing feature in OmniSound® is turned off so that the sound
is not altered.
