Settingthe volume of theconsoles’ built-inloudspeakers

The bars on the start display indicate the current volume setting for the consoles’ built-in loudspeakers.

To set the volume of the consoles’ built-in loudspeakers:

Turn the jog wheel on the central unit.

If you turn the jog wheel clockwise, the volume of the consoles’ built-in loudspeakers is increased, if you turn the jog wheel counter-clockwise, the volume is reduced.

Configuring the conference system

Turning on the central unit for the first time

When turning on the central unit for the first time, the text “Init Refused” is shown on the displays of the conference consoles connected to the central unit. The conference consoles cannot be detected by the central unit, since they have not yet been assigned a microphone number. Your conference system is not yet operational.

First, initialize the conference consoles in order to assign each console an internal microphone number. You can choose between two initialization modes: automatic and manual initialization.

Note!

Once you have configured your conference and interpretation system, the configuration will be retained in memory on turn-off. When turning on the central unit again, your conference system is immediately operational.

Automatically initializing all conference consoles

The automatic initialization allows you to initialize all conference consoles at once. In this case, however, the consoles are assigned microphone numbers in an arbitrary order.

From the central unit’s operating menu, choose “Conference”, “Initialize Units” and “Automatic Init” one after the other. The text “Please wait” is shown on the display.

When the text “Press ENTER to Save initialization” is shown on the display, press the ENTER key.

All connected conference consoles are initialized automatically and any previous configuration is deleted.
