A channel represents a potential connection with a hardware port on the PC, to which an audio device
(such as a public address (PA) system, program feed, or additional intercom system) is connected.

Note:

You can only speak on channels to which an appropriate device is attached. (For example, you can

speak to [

] another intercom system, but you can only listen [

] to a program feed.)

For more information about configuring channels, see [Interfaces].

To call (join) a channel:

]. The Channels tab is visible if your system administrator

has granted you access to one or more channels.
