5.8.2.1 Operator
only operator can activate microphone via webserver or Cocon software
5.8.2.2 Direct speak:
Enables the participant to turn on or off his microphone at any time. The only limitation here is the
maximum number of microphones that may be active simultaneously.
=> When this option is on and the the maximum active microphones setting is
reached, activation of an additional microphone will automatically switch off the microphone that was
active for the longest time. Again, the chairmen units can always be activated.
5.8.2.3 Request:
Enables the participant to send a request to speak to the chairman or conference operator by pressing
the microphone button (or to cancel his request by pressing the microphone button again). Once the
floor is requested, the first one in the queue has blinking green mic leds , the other ones have fixed
green mic leds, this means that the delegate unit is in request mode.
The chairman or conference operator grants the participant the permission to speak by using the NEXT
button or by activating the microphone via Cocon software , if used.
=> this option allows the participant to cancel his own request by pressing the
microphone button again
5.8.2.4 Group discussion:
Any microphone can be switched until the maximum active microphones setting is reached. Other
participants can switch their microphone in request mode. The first applicant who requested the floor
gets the floor when one of the currently active microphones is turned off .
When a chairman pushes the NEXT button , the microphone which was active the longest time , will be
switched off and the first one in the request queue will be switched on
The first one in the queue has blinking green mic leds , the other ones have fixed green mic leds
5.8.2.5 VOX
Is similar to direct speak + interrupt possible , but microphones are switched on by voice detection
Vox Treshold
Determines the sound level needed to activate the mic by VOX
VOX treshold is to be chosen in such way that a microphone is switched on directly after the person
begins to speak.
A threshold setting whichs to high might result in a microphone not being switched on or switched on
to late.
A threshold setting which is to low might results in a microphone being switched on by ambient sound
Also the microphone preset setting will influence the choice of the Treshold level .
