guyst77,
Depending on whether you use a PC or MAC, you will need to install the Plantronics Hub Software.
Below are the links and instructions.
From within the phones WebUI, go to Features > Audio > Ringer Device for Headset >> set to "Use Speaker & Headset" < this is the setting from the phone that will send the ringing alert tone through to the headset.
The reason for the hub software is so that you can set the default pickup/answering device.
While I designed this configuration for use with the Savi 8210/8220, it should should work for all other wireless headsets that have a USB connection option.
