Users can click on a device from the Toolbox and drag it into the Flow Window, where it’s added to the
channel they wish to configure (for example: a microphone is dragged into the Flow and dropped onto Mic
Input 3). Once the device is added, an icon appears next to that Channel Number. Click any Mic Input to
launch the dialog window (in this case, the Mic Input dialog). This example shows the microphone we added
connected to Mic Input 3. Repeat this process for any device on any of the Channels you wish you configure
with a pre-configured device.
If an INTERACT Pro 8i unit is connected to the INTERACT Pro unit, click the
Enable
check box in the Pro 8i
Mics Flow to add Mic Inputs 9-16. Microphones and PTT Microphones can now be dragged from the Device
Toolbox onto these available inputs.
Right-click a device in the Flow Window (e.g. the microphone we dropped onto Mic Input 3) navigate to the
Clear Device
option, then click on it to remove it from that Channel.
