Press the microphone button once to turn on the microphone or to enter a request-to-speak. Press the microphone button
once again to turn off or cancel the request-to-speak.
• The LED ring of the microphone will illuminate when the microphone is turned on.
• The LED ring of the microphone will flash when a request-to-speak has been entered. The request-to-speak will be registered
and the microphone unit will be released by the chairman.
• If the selected limit of open microphones or requests to speak is exceeded, the LED of the microphone button will flash
briefly and the delegate has to either turn on the microphone or enter a request-to-speak later.
Depending on the selected operating mode, the LED ring of the microphone displays the indications described below:
FREE MODE
The microphone is turned on by pressing the microphone button, if the limit is not yet achieved. If the limit is exceeded, the
LED ring of the microphone will flash briefly. The delegate has to try later to turn on the microphone.
REQUEST MODE
The request-to-speak is entered by pressing the microphone button. The request-to-speak is registered and the microphone
is activated by the chairman. The request-to-speak can be cancelled by pressing the microphone button once again.
If the limit is exceeded, the LED ring of the microphone will flash briefly. The delegate has to try again to enter the request-to-
speak later.
AUTO MODE
The delegates activate their microphone or enter a request-to-speak one after another. A delegate can activate his microphone
by pressing the microphone button if the selected limit is not yet achieved. If the limit is exceeded, the request-to-speak is
registered by the MCS-D 200 control unit and the microphone is activated automatically as soon as another speaker turns off
his microphone. The request-to-speak can also be cancelled by pressing the microphone button once again. If the selected limit
for requests-to speak is exceeded, the LED ring of the microphone will flash briefly. The delegate has to try again to enter his
request-to-speak later.
FIFO MODE (FIRST IN - FIRST OUT)
The delegates speak one after another. A delegate can turn on his microphone by pressing the microphone button at any time.
If the selected limit is exceeded, the microphone of the speaker who turned on his microphone first, is deactivated automatically
(first in-first out). A distance of approx. 30 cm is close enough when speaking.
Note:
The chairman can control the discussion with the following function buttons: CANCEL : clear turned on microphones and/or
requests-to-speak. NEXT : release the next request-to-speak. PREVIOUS : turn on the microphone of the previous speaker.
