Operation Modes

5.7.1

Operation Mode

The "Operation Mode" determines the behavior of the
microphone system.
•
Auto (or Automatic) mode allows for the
conference units to be switched on immediately
upon touching the 'Speak' button.
This is indicated by a red light in the 'Speak' lamp
and in the light ring in the gooseneck
microphone. Touching the 'Speak' button again
will turn the microphone off
A Chairman Unit can be considered as is always
being in Auto or VOX mode.
•
Manual mode features a request list, where
'Delegates' are inserted in a queue upon touching
the 'Speak' button. This is confirmed by a steady
green light in the 'Request' indication in the
delegate unit. It is possible to cancel the request
by touching the button again.
The delegate unit can only be switched 'On' using
the CU 5905 browser interface on a PC/iPad or
from a control system like AMX ® or Crestron ®.
This will be indicated by red light in the 'Speak'
lamp in the conference unit. At this point the
delegate can switch off the microphone by
touching the 'Speak' button.
Note: Manual mode is never selected/used on CU
5905 if a Browser, AMX ®, Crestron ® or other
"Control Facility" is not connected.
•
FIFO is an automated mode. The conference unit
functions in the same way as in 'automatic' mode
as long as the number of turned on delegate units
is less or equal to the selected maximum
speakers.
When the max. number is reached, the next
delegates touching their 'Speak' button will be
placed in the request queue until the maximum
requests is reached. The green 'Request' lamp in
the delegate unit in top of the queue will flash
34
slowly indicating that this unit is the next to be
switched 'On'
The green 'Request' lamp in the other delegate
unit in the queue will light up steadily.
When one of the units speaking is switched 'Off',
the first delegate unit in the queue is automati‐
cally switched 'On'.
This mode will normally be used with only 1 as
'Max delegate speakers'. Chairman units will
always be turned on directly if the value set for
'Max Total Sp akers' is n t reached.
•
VOX, voice activation mode allows for the
conference units to be switched on automatically
when a delegate is speaking in the microphone or
by touching the 'Speak' button.
This is indicated by a red light in the 'Speak' lamp
in the conference unit. Touching the microphone
'Speak' button again will turn the microphone off.
When a delegate stops speaking the microphone
turns off automatically after a short period. This
period is controlled by the 'Release Time' setting
(see section '5.6 Web Browser Setup and
Cont ol'), which default s 4 secon s.
The microphone can also be turned off by
touching the Speak' button.
A Chairman Unit can be considered as always
being in Auto or VOX mode
5.7.2
The "Delegate Interrupt" setting determines the
behavior of the delegate conference units.
If 'Off' is selected one delegate will not interrupt
another. If "On" is selected a delegate is allowed to
interrupt (switch off) another delegate. Interrupt
becomes relevant when 'Max Delegate Speakers' get
exceeded.
When this occur the delegate who has been 'On' for
the longest time is interrupted (switched off) to give
room for the interrupting delegate.
