Designating an Exclusive Speaker
During On Going Conferences, you can designate one participant as the
conference lecturer/speaker. All other participants are automatically muted so
they do not interrupt the lecture. Alternatively, the chairperson can designate
themselves as the conference Exclusive Speaker by entering the DTMF code
assigned to this function (the default code is *5) on the DTMF input device
(usually remote control). For more about DTMF codes, see “Using DTMF
Codes During a Conference” on page 6-95.
To designate a participant as the conference Exclusive Speaker:
In the Browser pane, the Monitor pane or the Status pane of the main
window, right-click the participant's icon, and then click Exclusive
Speaker.
The selected participant becomes the conference speaker and all the
other participants are automatically muted by the system.
The Exclusive Speaker icon is displayed in the Audio column in
the Monitor and Status panes.
The Muted by MCU icon is displayed in the Audio column of all
other participants.
