Voice Activation (VOX)
In VOX mode, the microphone activates automatically
once a participant speaks. The mode is ideal for meetings
that are more conversational, allowing back-and-forth
communication that doesn't involve speak requests and
button activation. The following settings allow VOX to be
customized for the meeting:
Voice Detection Threshold
Determines the input level (dB) that activates the
microphone. Lower settings activate the microphone with
a quieter source, while higher settings require a louder
source to activate the microphone.
Default 0 dB
Minimum -12 dB
Maximum 8 dB

Release Time
Determines how long a microphone remains active after
a participant stops talking. The setting is selectable in 0.5
second increments.
Default 4 seconds
Minimum 1 seconds
Maximum 10 seconds
Book Drop
To ensure that only the speech from a participant activates
the microphone, turn on the book drop feature. This quickly
turns off a microphone that has been accidentally activated
from a loud noise other than speech.
Last Mic Stays Open
This setting ensures that at least one microphone is always
activated. This is useful for video or audio conferences with
echo-canceling equipment.
Auto Off
This setting automatically turns off the microphone when
the participant stops talking. This setting applies to systems
in FIFO, Manual or Automatic modes. See
to adjust the release time for that mode.
