If the original floor language is a language of which all interpreters have a complete understanding and from which they work, you do not have to enable this function. In this case, all interpreters interpret the original floor language into their respective target languages. These interpretations are fed to the corresponding interpretation channels.

The below illustration shows the normal interpretation process where the original floor language is directly interpreted into the target languages.
