Microphone functionality

Microphone functionality is a feature where
participant in a conference can use a microphone in
a DCS 6000 Conference Unit to address an
audience. The sound from a conference microphone
is called the 'Floor' sound.

loudspeakers in the DCS 6000 Conference Units, in
Language selectors, in Interpreter Sets or the sound
can be feed to an external PA-system.

set at the CU 60xx however the sound from all the
open microphones is mixed together in the 'Floor'
sound.
