Mary what I do is quite simple. I just keep the mic "open" however, I activate the "mute button" located on the left earpiece. Then when I need to talk just reach up and press the "mute" button to un-mute. When finished talking if I do not want someone to be disturbed or hear the background noise, I push the "mute button" to mute the mic. Also when the headset is in the "Mute" mode the microphone area glows red. If not muted there is no color around the mic. I mention this because my family knows when the mic is red it is okay for them to come in and talk. If it isn't red they indicate they need to talk to me and I then push the mute button. I hope this helps you.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There is a built in mute button that you are able to use. You can mute your mic if not in use and when you need to speak you can unmute the mic to respond. Hope this answers your question.
