3.3.7 How to set the timer

modes “Request” and “Free”.
• Depending on the setting (refer to chapter 3.3.9 “Programming functions table”) the following functions are
possible:
– Setting the speech time.
– Turning off the microphone unit after the speech time has elapsed with or without acoustic warning signal.
– Display the exceeded speech time without turning off the microphone unit after the speech time has elapsed
with or without acoustic warning signal.
• The setting is automatically stored and loaded when the system is turned on again.
• The timer applies to the activated operating mode which is displayed by an illuminated LED in the “Mode” field.
Whenever a microphone is activated, the timer is started with the set speech time and counts backwards.
• The speech time is shown in the display
ቫ of the chairman microphone unit. If the remaining time is at least one
minute, the minutes are displayed. Two full stops are flashing in the display. If the remaining time is less than one
minute, the seconds are displayed. When the seconds are displayed only one full stop is flashing.
• When the warning time is achieved, an acoustic warning signal is heard over the loudspeakers. When the timer
has achieved 00, the microphone is turned off, a registered microphone is turned on or the exceeded speech time
is displayed, depending on the setting.
• When the chairman holds down the “Prior” button ቨ, the timer is stopped.
