Operating the components of the SDC 8200 system

If the SDC 8200 CV chairman unit is configured so that the request-to- speak list is shown on the display, this request-to-speak list is also shown on all SDC 8200 DV conference consoles.

To configure the SDC 8200 CV chairman unit so that the request-to-speak list is shown on the displays of all conference consoles:

On the SDC 8200 CV chairman unit, press the “ ” or “ ” menu selection key.

The request-to-speak list is shown on the displays of all SDC 8200 DV and SDC 8200 CV conference consoles. The microphone numbers of the consoles from which a request to speak has been made are not shown on the displays of the SDC 8200 CV conference consoles.

Operating the interpreter consoles

Adjusting the volume and the middle and treble response of the head- phones connected to the interpreter console

If you have connected two headphones to the interpreter console, the vol- ume control adjusts the volume for both headphones. At each system start-up, the volume is automatically reset to a medium level.

Caution!	Hearing damage due to high volumes!
	This is a professional conference system. Commercial use
	is subject to the rules and regulations of the trade associ-
	ation responsible. Sennheiser, as the manufacturer, is
	therefore obliged to expressly point out possible health
	risks arising from use.
	This system is capable of producing sound pressure
	exceeding 85 dB(A). 85 dB(A) is the sound pressure cor-
	responding to the maximum permissible volume which is
	by law (in some countries) allowed to affect your hearing
	for the duration of a working day. It is used as a basis
	according to the specifications of industrial medicine.
	Higher volumes or longer durations can damage your
	hearing. At higher volumes, the duration must be short-
	ened in order to prevent hearing damage. The following
	are sure signs that you have been subjected to excessive
	noise for too long a time:
	– You can hear ringing or whistling sounds in your
	ears.
	– You have the impression (even for a short time
	only) that you can no longer hear high notes.
