Adjustment range: “1” ... “10”
The “Microphone Limit” menu item allows you to set the max. number of speakers
who can take the floor simultan
eously in all conference modes. Please note that
any connected chairman unit is counted against the microphone limit. If you set a
higher value (adjustment range “1” ... “10”) than the one determined by the
number of connected cha
i
rman units, the system will reduce the microphone limit
to the maximum possible value (see examples in the table).
For information on how this setting affects your conference, refer to the previous
section “Adjusting the conference mode – “Conference Mode””.

the longest speaking time loses his or her speaking privileges.
