CONTROLLING A CONFERENCE

4.3 USING CONTROL MODE

Before using control mode, you should be familiar with the characteristics of each of the five microphone operating modes. Please refer to chapter 1.3 (‘Controlling Microphones’) and page 3-13 (‘Specifying the Micro- phone Operation Mode’) for further information.

Switching microphones on and off

In control mode, depending on the microphone operating mode, the opera- tor can switch inactive microphones on, and switch them off again. It is also possible to clear all requests-to-speak.

NOTE: In ‘Delegate with Voice Activation’ mode, no operator interven- 4

tion is possible.

Switching microphones on - to switch any inactive microphone on:

•Click on the icon of the inactive microphone you wish to switch on.

•In ‘Operator with Request List’ mode, ‘Operator with Request and Response List’, ‘Delegate with Request List’ mode and ‘Delegate with Override’ mode, clicking on an inactive microphone icon automatically makes that microphone active. This applies to all inactive microphones, whether they are on the request-to-speak list or not (only applicable to ‘Operator with Request List’ mode and ‘Delegate with Request List’ mode). If the speakers list is full, then the first microphone is automati- cally switched off and removed from the speakers list to make room.

To switch on the first microphone on the request-to-speak list in ‘Operator with Request List’, ‘Delegate with Request List’ and ‘Operator with Request and Response List’ modes:

•Click on the ‘Shift!’ option on the menu bar, or click on the ‘Shift’ push button in the action box. You can also simply click on the microphone icon.

NOTE: The ‘Shift!’ and ‘Clear Requests!’ options on the menu bar can be displayed as an action box with push buttons for these two functions. For more details, please refer to page 4-6,‘Action Box’.

NOTE: A response request to speak is always automatically at the top of the request-to-speak list, and is therefore the first to be automatically activated.
