Easy to Wear, Easy to Use
Plantronics offers two basic styles of aviation headsets: The MS50, which attaches to a headband or eyeglasses; and the StarSet®, which rests behind the ear. All Plantronics headsets offer hands-free, in-flight convenience, lightweight comfort during extended wear, and the dependability that has made us part of every manned-space program from Project Mercury to the Space Shuttle.

Attaching Your Headset to Your Glasses
MS50
Your MS50 headband is fully adjustable. The pivoting arm on which the capsule is mounted allows you to wear the capsule on the left or right side with the headband over the top of or behind your head, as illustrated. Place the eartip in the opening of the ear canal.
Performance Tip
Begin by extending the voice tube approximately one inch. Holding the capsule with your thumb and forefinger, as shown, place the headset against your head, above and slightly forward of your ear. Now slide the capsule downward, rotating it backward until positioned as shown. Finally, place the eartip in the opening of the ear canal.
Performance Tip
Place the voice tube near the corner of the mouth just below, but not directly in front of, your lips, as shown. Move the headband pivot bar up and down to position the tube vertically, and rotate the tube itself for horizontal positioning. If necessary, you can move the capsule laterally on the pivot arm.
StarSet ®
The spring clip on either side of the capsule allows you to snap your headset onto your glasses. If your glasses have wire temples, you may wish to order an eyeglass bow adapter to thicken the mounting base for the capsule and ensure a comfortable fit, as shown. The bow adapter is not included with the MS50 aviation headset (order PN 10822-00).
When adjusting the capsule, handle it carefully; tugging on the voice tube or cable may damage the headset.
StarSet voice tubes rotate, pivot, and telescope. Holding the headset securely against your head with one hand, grasp the bend in the voice tube with the othe. Pull out, push in, or rotate the voice tube to a position near the corner of the mouth, just below, but not in front of, your lips.
For stability, it is essential that the capsule be properly hooked over the top portion of the ear.
