Press ENTER to Save

You can save two different interpreter configurations in the central unit: “CONFIG 1” and “CONFIG 2”. This allows you to quickly and easily adapt you interpretation system to a new conference. In addition, you can modify the currently active interpreter configuration at any time.

Creating a new interpreter configuration

To create a new interpreter configuration:

1.Define the number of booths as described under “Setting the max. number of interpreter booths/languages” on page 86.

If you change the number of booths after you have created and saved the interpreter configuration, the new number of booths will automatically be saved in the configuration.

2.Define the number of interpreter consoles per booth as described under “Setting the max. number of interpreter consoles per booth” on page 86.

If you change the number of interpreter consoles after you have created and saved the interpreter configuration, the new number of interpreter consoles will automatically be saved in the configuration.

3.From the central unit’s operating menu, choose “Conference”, “Configuration” and ”New” one after the other.

The “Select Booth” menu appears.

4.(Carry out this step once for each booth.) Choose the booth number and configure:

y the main target language as described under “Configuring the main target language (A-channel) of a booth” on page 88.

y – if necessary – the second target language as described under “Configuring the second target language (B-channel) of a booth” on page 88.

y – if necessary – the auto-relay interpretation for the interpreters as described under “Enabling the auto-relay interpretation function (Auto-floor)” on page 89.

5.After you have configured the last booth, press the EXIT key repeatedly until the “Save Config.” menu appears.

6.Choose “as Config 1” or “as Config 2” and press the ENTER key. The interpreter configuration is saved.

Attention!

If you exit the “Save Config.” menu by pressing the EXIT key, the interpreter configuration will not be saved! A new interpreter configuration is not created.

7.Initialize all interpreter consoles on the central unit (see “Half- automatically initializing all interpreter consoles on the central unit” on page 90). This initialization is automatically added to the existing configuration. Your interpretation system is now ready for operation.
