no screen line has been specified. Whether the seat number or screen line is displayed first depends on which ‘Search’ mode has been selected.
If ‘Interpreters’ has been selected, the ‘Connect To’ list box will display a list of all interpreters who can receive an intercom call.
iNote
What is displayed for interpreters is based on information contained within an interpreter configuration file in the Simultaneous Interpretation software module (LBB 4172). If no booth/desk numbers have been defined, or the Simultaneous Interpretation program is not open, then there will be no information displayed in the ‘‘Connect To’ list box.
Each interpreter will be identified by ‘Booth <N>, Desk <M>’, where <N> indicates the booth number of the interpreter, and <M> gives the desk number within the booth.
Selecting a delegate, chairman or interpreter for connection
The procedure for selecting a person to receive the intercom call is always the same, regardless of whether a delegate, chairman or interpreter is selected. To do so:
•Click on the name in the list.
If you wish to change your selection, simply repeat the procedure.
Search
This option allows you to conduct a search for a particular delegate or chairman. The ‘Search’ facility is located beneath the ‘Connect To’ list box. There are two ‘Search’ radio buttons, a ‘Search’ push button and a list box:
Figure 13 The ‘Search’ facility
You can specify whether the search is conducted by screen line (‘Names’) or seat number (‘Numbers’) when searching for a delegate or chairman.
iNote
When ‘Interpreters’ is selected, a ‘Search’ can only be carried out to locate interpreters, and can therefore only be done by ‘Numbers’, where numbers is ‘Booth <N>, Desk <M>’.
To choose the mode not currently selected:
•Click on the radio button without the black circle.
i Note
Specifying the ‘Search’ mode also determines the way information is displayed in the ‘Connect To’ list box. If ‘Names’ is selected, then the list is arranged alphabetically by screen line, with the seat number displayed after each screen line. If ‘Numbers’ is selected, then the list is arranged by seat number, in ascending numerical order. The screen line (if specified) is displayed after each seat number.
You can specify a particular delegate or chairman you wish to search for. This is done by entering the details of the required delegate/chairman in the text box situated under the ‘Search’ push button. If ‘Numbers’ has been specified for the search, you may only enter up to four alphanumeric characters. If ‘Names’ has been specified for the search, then the maximum number of characters allowed equals the maximum length of the screen line.
To search:
•Click on the text box under the ‘Search’ push button.
•Type the details of the required delegate in the text box.
•Click on the ‘Search’ push button.
Once the search is completed, the list box displays all entries corresponding to the input details. You can select the desired entry by clicking on it.
Connecting an incoming call
Once you have selected the destination of the intercom call, you can connect it to the caller. This is done by means of the ‘Connect’ push button at the bottom of the dialogue box. This button is enabled if the following conditions are met:
•The handset of the operator’s intercom unit is not on the cradle.
•An item has been selected in the ‘Connect To’ list
•There are intercom lines available. If there are no intercom lines available, the text beneath the ‘Connect’ push button will say ‘(No Lines Available)’.
