have a complete understanding and from which they work, you can enable
the auto-relay interpretation function (auto-floor): The original floor
language is interpreted into a language understood by all interpreters.
This interpretation is automatically "relayed" to the floor channel of all
other interpreters and serves as the basis from which they interpret into
their respective target languages.
Example:
The active languages at a conference are English, German and French
(active languages are the languages into which interpretation is
provided).

interprets the contributions of the Russian delegates into English,
which the other interpreters then interpret into their respective target
languages. The English interpretation is also fed to the English
interpretation channel.
