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:
1. Click the Channels tab [
]. The Channels tab is visible if your system administrator
has granted you access to one or more channels.
