1. A system for adjusting an audio setting for a headset, comprising:
- a communications device;
a detachable headband operable to be worn over a user head, wherein the detachable headband can be coupled to the communications device;
a sensor coupled to the communications device configured to determine a detachable headband connection state comprising a coupled state indicating the detachable headband is coupled to the communications device and a decoupled state indicating the detachable headband is decoupled from the communications device; and
a processor configured to adjust the audio setting for the headset to a headband mode responsive to detection of a change in the detachable headband connection state from the decoupled state to the coupled state, wherein the audio setting comprises a receive volume setting, a receive frequency response setting, a terminal coupling loss weighted setting, a side tone setting, a receive noise reduction setting, or a receive automatic level control setting.

Abstract
A system for adjusting an audio setting for a headset, comprises a communications device, a detachable headband containing a detectable element that can be coupled to the communications device, a sensor coupled to the communications device configured to determine whether the headband is coupled to the communications device and a processor configured to adjust the audio setting for the headset to a headband mode when the headband is coupled to the communications device. The processor may also adjust the audio setting of the headset to a non-headband mode based on the sensor detecting the headband being disconnected from the communications device.

13. A headset system comprising:
-
a detachable headband; a detachable earbud; a communications device coupled to the detachable headband, wherein the detachable earbud is configured to be coupled to the communications device in a non-headband mode when the detachable headband is decoupled from the communications device; a sensor coupled to the communications device and configured to detect a connection state between the communications device and the detachable headband; and a processor operably coupled to the sensor to adjust a setting of an audio equalizer to a headband mode from the non-headband mode when the sensor detects that the detachable headband has become connected to the communications device. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
