Modifying the currently active interpreter configuration

You can modify the following features of the currently active interpreter configuration:

ythe main target language (A-channel)

ythe second target language (B-channel)

ythe auto-relay interpretation for the interpreters (auto-floor)

To modify the currently active interpreter configuration:

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

The “Select Booth” menu appears.

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

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.

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

4.Choose “as Config 1” or “as Config 2” and press the ENTER key. The modified interpreter conifguration is saved and becomes effective immediately.

Attention!

If you exit the “Save Config.” menu by pressing the EXIT key, the interpreter configuration will not be saved! The interpreter configuration remains unchanged!

Loading a previously saved interpreter configuration

To load a previously saved interpreter configuration:

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

The “Load” menu appears.

Choose “Configuration 1” or “Configuration 2” and press the ENTER key.

The interpreter configuration is loaded. Since the options and the initialization of the interpreter consoles on the central unit have already been saved in this interpreter configuration, your interpretation system is immediately operational. It is therefore not necessary to initialize the interpreter consoles again.
