Functionality in short:
 Whenever a microphone is turned ON
(except turned ON from the Request list):

Reply list is removed
o Entry of this microphone in the
Request list is maintained
o Other entries in both lists are
maintained
 Whenever a microphone is turned ON from
the Request list:

Delegate Interrupt Mode
The “Delegate Interrupt” setting determines the
behavior of the delegate Conference units.
 None When “None” is selected and the number
of open Delegate units has reached the number
specified in the setting “Max. Delegate
Speakers” no more delegate microphone can
be opened. Pressing the microphone buttons
will not turn on the microphone but 3
flashes in the green LED will indicate, that
the maximum number has been reached.
It is similar for Chairman units if the number
of open units (Chairman and Delegate) has
reached the number specified in the setting
“Max. Total Speakers”.
 Lower If however “Lower” is selected a
chairman will interrupt (switch off) the first
switched on delegate unit if the number of
open units (Chairman and Delegate) has
reached the number specified in the setting
“Max. Total Speakers”.
 Lower+Same If “Lower+Same” is selected
a delegate unit will interrupt (switch off) the
first switched on delegate unit if the number
of delegate units has reached the number
specified in the setting “Max. Delegate
Speakers”.
Similar a chairman will interrupt (switch off)
the first switched ON delegate unit if the
number of open units (Chairman and
Delegate) has reached the number specified
in the setting “Max. Total Speakers”, and if
no delegate unit is switched ON the first
switched ON Chairman unit will be switched
OFF.
AM 6040 Ambient Microphone Unit
The purpose of an ambient microphone unit is
to provide sound from a meeting
room/conference hall, when there is no
delegate/chairman using their microphones.
Transmission of ambient noise rather than
transmitting no sound at all is a desirable
feature from listeners attending the meeting via
headphones. The ambient noise indicates to the
listeners, that there is no speaking activity
going on, and this information is very nice to
have, when interpreters are doing
interpretation, and the speaker stops speaking.
