agenda. Settings available are: microphone mode,
number of active microphones, request‑to‑speak list,
individual and group speech timers and many more.
During the actual meeting the operator can choose to
run the set‑up as pre‑configured, or make adjustments
in real‑time.
Microphone Management
Microphone Management offers a number of
microphone control options. This has a bearing on
both how the Microphone Management module
operates and how the conference itself proceeds.
These options are:
• Control by operator with request‑to‑speak list
(manual).
• Control by operator with request‑to‑speak list and
response list.
• Control by delegate with request‑to‑speak list (open).
• Control by delegate with override of other delegate
microphones (first‑in, first‑out).
• Control by delegate with voice activation.
• Control by delegate with Push‑To‑Talk.
Each mode allows a different level of both operator
and delegate microphone control, so all general
conferences can be covered. For example, smaller,
informal discussions require very little operator
microphone control, so a mode such as microphone
control by delegate would be ideal. For a full‑scale
international conference with hundreds of
participants, control by operator with request‑to‑speak
list would be more appropriate. The operator can
specify whether one, two, three or four normal
delegate microphones can be active simultaneously. It
is also possible to specify whether delegates are
allowed to cancel requests‑to‑speak or switch their
microphones off. The amount of time delegates are
allowed to speak can be defined for the current
speaker, response speaker, individual delegates and
for delegate groups.
Notebook
It is also possible to give delegates additional
microphone activation privileges, which means they do
not have to join the request list and can enjoy certain
other privileges not granted to other delegates. The
microphone type must be specified for the notebook.
The possibilities are:
• ‘Chair’ for chairman microphones.
• ‘Button’ where delegates activate their microphones
by pressing their microphone button (in this mode
the ‘VIP’LED of the contribution units is illuminated).
• ‘Operator’ where the microphones of more active
delegates are activated by the operator.
• ‘Voice’ where the microphones are voice activated.
• ‘PTT’ where microphones are activated by using
Push‑To‑Talk.
Both DCN Next Generation and DCN Wireless systems
automatically recognize an assigned chairman unit and
will automatically add it to the notebook.
