NOM
In this menu the maximum number of open microphones is set.
Important: For each chairman microphone unit in the system there is one channel reserved. A total
of 8 channels is available which can be occupied by chairman and delegate microphone units. If the
“Max” setting is selected and there are two chairman microphone units in the system, the microphones
of six delegate microphone units can be activated simultaneously. If the setting “4” is selected and
there are two chairman microphone units in the system, the microphones of four delegate units can
be simultaneously activated.
The display of the NOM is reduced accordingly, if it does not match the real number of chairman
microphone units or the network setup. The display is increased again to the original value, when the
network setup allows this.
Mode
In this menu, the mode of the conference system for all microphone units will be set.
Normal:
Turn on the microphone with the microphone button.
• The red LED ring of the gooseneck microphone illuminates and the microphone button illuminates
green: The microphone is ready to talk.
• Depending on the setting of the Orbis CU control unit up to 8 participants (e.g. 7 delegates and 1
chairman) can speak simultaneously.
Important:
When the maximum number of open microphones is achieved, the microphone can only be turned on
manually, when another microphone has been turned off.
FiFo:
• If the microphone units operate in the FIFO mode, the first microphone is switched off when
turning on another microphone, if the maximum number of open microphones (NOM) is exceeded.
Voice:
• If the microphone units operate in the voice-activated mode (“Voice”), the microphone is turned
on when speaking into it. The microphone unit can also be operated via the microphone button.
• If the voice-activated mode is desired with “Last Mic Hold”, this can be realised with an additional
chairman microphone unit, which is allocated via the microphone button and which remains allocated.
