Unmute at Startup
The Unmute at Startup setting defines the mute state of a microphone when it
is turned on, restarted, or taken out of a charger base. If this mode is selected,
all microphones in the group will unmute in these circumstances. If it is not
selected, then all microphones in the group will start muted.
Individual Mute
A mute group that is set to “Individual Mute” allows each microphone to
control its own mute behavior. Touching the mute area of one microphone will
toggle that microphone between muted and unmuted state, but will not affect
other microphones in the group.
Tabletop mute
The “Tabletop Mute” option enables all tabletop microphones (directional,
omni-directional, gooseneck) to mute all microphones in the group when a
mute area is touched. Once another tabletop microphone mute area is touched
all tabletop microphones will un-mute and all Wearable microphones, TA4
adapters and XLR adapters will return to their previous state. Wearable
microphones, XLR adapters, and TA4 adapters will be able to individually mute
at that time as described in the “Individual Mute” setting.
Push to Talk
In a group that is set to “Push to Talk” all microphones are muted unless the
mute area is touched. While it is touched, the microphone is in the unmuted
state. Each microphone controls its own mute behavior only and touching the
mute area of one microphone will have no effect on other microphones in the
group.
Because the touch area of a microphone in a Push to Talk group must be held
continuously for the microphone to remain unmuted, holding the touch area
will not turn off the microphone. Instead the microphone must be turned off
through the Web UI, through the Front Panel, through the room control API, or
by returning it to the charger base.
Chairman Microphone
In each microphone group, one microphone can be designated as a chairman
microphone. If a second microphone is selected to be chairman, the first
microphone will lose its rights as chairman, and the new chairman will gain
them. When setting a chairman microphone for a group with no chairman,
that group’s mute mode will be automatically changed to Individual Mute and
Unmute at Startup will be activated. Mute types and Unmute at startup
settings can be adjusted after a chairman microphone has been set.
When pressing the mute area of the chairman microphone, all microphones in
the group will change between three different states.
