Showing quality of Incoming language
To the right of the four a-d language abbreviations
of the quality of the source is shown.
If there is no interpretation at the channel (Floor
audio is present) then “FLOOR” will be shown.
When there is an interpreters set switched on to the
channel where the interpreter is listening to Floor,
then a quality indication “+” is shown.
When an interpreter’s set is switched on to the
channel where the interpreter listens to another
channel whose interpreter listens to Floor, a quality
indication “-.” is shown. This is indication one relay
interpreting.
Brought one level further, a quality indication “- -.”
is shown. This is indication for double or more relay
interpreting
When interpreting on the A-language and the A-
language of the Interpreter Unit is selected, then
“FLOOR“ will be shown, preventing that the
interpreter hears himself. For testing purpose, the
corresponding a, b, c or d button can be pressed for
3 seconds the listening audio will then switch to the
interpreter himself and the quality indication
change to “SELF”. When releasing the button, the
listening audio will switch back to Floor and the
quality indication changes to “FLOOR” again.
If the A-language is not selected the quality
indication “SELF” is shown
All a-d selections show the actual quality of the
channels at all times.
Selection of Outgoing channel
The two push buttons
A
and
B
are used to select
whether the interpreter will be routed to the A- or
B-outgoing channel.
When
A
is pressed the red LED is lighted in the
button. When
B
is pressed the light in the A-button
will go out and the red LED in the B-button will light
up.
The A-lines will always show the language of the
one selected for the Interpreter Unit. The upper line
at the left shows the channel number and the lower
line shows the languages in full name in accordance
to the language list supported (max. 10 char.).
When the system is initialised and set up then the
A-display will show the booth languages and A is
automatically selected. B-display will show the B-
language selected at the B-language Set-up
When
B
is pressed the light LED in the button is lit.
It is now possible to change the selection of the B-
language channel with the
B-select
push buttons
up and down if the B-mode is set to “All” in the B-
language setup menu.
The B-selection will only function when B is
selected and the Microphone is not switched On.
Microphone on/off
When the push button is pressed the microphone
audio is put on to the outgoing channel; the
LED’s in the button and the lamp of the
microphone are lit up. If another interpreter
already occupies the outgoing channel nothing
will happen.
When the push button again is pressed the sound
from the microphone, the button LED’s and
microphone lamp is switched off.

microphone to the outgoing channel while it is

Error indication
If errors occur in the communication with the CU
it will be indicated by the interpreters set. The
set has two error thresholds. The first threshold
is reached when audio-data from the CU contains
too many errors for the sound to be reproduced
correctly. This is indicated by a black matrix in
the normal operation display and by the
communication display when the set is un-
initialised. The second threshold is reached when
the frame error rate reaches a higher predefined
value. When this happens the set will enter the
communication status display regardless of the
state the set was in before errors occurred.
