Running a conference Running a conference The character of your conference (i.e. the conditions under which the participants can take the floor or are granted speaking privileges) depends on the settings of the central unit (see page 50). Possible settings: "Direct Access", "Override" , "Push To Talk" and "Request" • "Direct Access" mode and "Override" mode: These two conference modes do not require the use of a chairperson unit. If the maximum number of speakers who can take the floor simultaneously ("Microphone Limit") has not been reached, a further speaker can take the floor immediately. Situation Event Behavior The maximum number of speakers who can take the floor simultaneously ("Microphone Limit") has been reached. A further speaker presses the microphone key on his or her conference unit. In "Direct Access" mode: The speaker has to wait until one of the current speakers passes on or loses his or her speaking privileges. He or she is then automatically granted speaking privileges. In "Override" mode: The speaker can take the floor immediately. The speaker with the longest speaking time loses his or her speaking privileges. • "Push To Talk" mode: This conference mode does not require the use of a chairperson unit. If the maximum number of speakers who can take the floor simultaneously ("Microphone Limit") has not been reached, any speaker can take the floor immediately as soon as he or she presses and holds the microphone key. Releasing the microphone key will discontinue the speaking privileges. Situation Event Behavior The maximum number of speakers who can take the floor simultaneously ("Microphone Limit") has been reached. A further speaker presses and holds the microphone key on his or her conference unit. Pressing and holding the microphone key causes no reaction. The speaker can only take the floor if the maximum number of speakers who can take the floor simultaneously drops below the specified limit value. • "Request" mode: For this mode to function, a chairperson unit is required or the conference system must be controlled via the "Conference Manager" software. In "Request" mode, the chairperson receives requests to speak and grants speaking privileges according to the FIFO principle (First In - First Out), i.e. the speaker with the longest waiting time is granted speaking privileges. Situation Event Behavior The maximum number of requests to speak has been reached ("Request Limit"). A further speaker makes a request to speak. The speaker can only make a request to speak if the maximum number of requests to speak drops below the specified limit value. You can control the conference either via chairperson units (see the following chapters) or via the "Conference Manager" software (see page 80). 72 | ADN Digital Conference System

Running a conference
The character of your conference (i.e. the conditions under which the participants
can take the floor or are granted speaking privileges) depends on the settings of
the central unit (see page 50).
Possible settings: “
Direct Access
”, “
Override
” , “
Push To Talk
” and “
Request
”
•
“
Direct Access
” mode and “
Override
” mode:
These two conference modes do not require the use of a chairperson unit.
If the maximum number of speakers who can take the floor simultaneously
(“
Microphone Limit
”) has not been reached, a further speaker can take the
floor immediately.
•
“
Push To Talk
” mode:
This conference mode does not require the use of a chairperson unit.
If the maximum number of speakers who can take the floor simultaneously
(“
Microphone Limit
”) has not been reached, any speaker can take the floor
immediately as soon as he or she presses and holds the microphone key.
Releasing the microphone key will discontinue the speaking privileges.
•
“
Request
” mode:
For this mode to function, a chairperson unit is required or the conference
system must be controlled via the “Conference Manager” software.
In “
Request
” mode, the chairperson receives requests to speak and grants
speaking privileges according to the FIFO principle (First In – First Out), i.e. the
speaker with the longest waiting time is granted speaking privileges.

The maximum number of speakers who can take the floor simul-
taneously (“
Microphone Limit
”) has been reached.
Event
A further speaker presses the microphone key on his or her con-
ference unit.
Behavior
In “
Direct Access
” mode:
The speaker has to wait until one of the current speakers passes
on or loses his or her speaking privileges. He or she is then auto-
matically granted speaking privileges.
In “
Override
” mode:
The speaker can take the floor immediately. The speaker with
the longest speaking time loses his or her speaking privileges.
Situation
The maximum number of speakers who can take the floor simul-
taneously (“
Microphone Limit
”) has been reached.
Event
A further speaker presses and holds the microphone key on his
or her conference unit.
Behavior
Pressing and holding the microphone key causes no reaction.
The speaker can only take the floor if the maximum number of
speakers who can take the floor simultaneously drops below the
specified limit value.
Situation

(“

”).
