It is used for sound amplification within teleconferencing or video presentations.
Sound processing is optimized for teleconference software applications.
1.1.2. Hotel Mode
Hotel Mode is optimized for installation in guest rooms at hotels.
Other example uses would be within public lobbies or waiting areas.

2.1. Creating a Setup Text File
To make the desired settings, use the dedicated tool (ESB_ConferenceHotelMode_Setup.xlsm) to create a Setup
Text File.

About canceled status of Install Mode
When remote conferencing is not used or the restriction for user operations is not necessary, the unit can
be used even when Install Mode is released (e.g., as a sound bar in a surround system).
However, optimization of sound processing and functions such as panel lock do not work.
