If an ZERO8 caller talks loud whilst this option is set, the sound level heard at the far end is gradually reduced by the AGC to an acceptable level. Similarly, if an ZERO8 caller talks quietly, the sound level heard at the far end is gradually increased to an acceptable level.

Group Calls

ZERO8 User Guide
Group Calls

The ZERO8 supports the following types of group calls: Mixing Group Call, Standard Group Call, Answerback to Owner Group Call. A lock can be applied to each mentioned group call type.

Standard Group Call. A standard group call is a call used to make announcements to members of the standard group call. The members receiving the announcement are unable to talk back to the group.
Mixing Group Call. In a mixing group call both the chairperson (the person who initiates the group call) and remaining members can talk within the conference. The chairperson can talk without having to press the (star) key. The remaining members need to press the (star) key to talk. Other than the chairperson, the group call member’s ZERO8 screens will display the name of the chairperson and that they need to press the * (star) key to talk. When the chairperson exits the group call (by pressing the clear key) the group call ends. When a member of the group, other than the chairperson, exits the conference the conference will continue with the remaining members and chairperson.

Answerback to Owner. An answer back to owner group call is one when a group member initiates an answer back to owner group call and makes a request for information or for a person. He/she then needs to press the (star/asterisk) key when they have made the request and wait for a member of the group to respond. A group member needs to respond by pressing the (star/asterisk) key on their deskstation. This results in a point to point call between the two group members. If no one responds to the request within twenty seconds the group call request is ended.

Locked Group Call. Initiating a group call which is locked is no different to making a standard, mixing or answerback to owner group call. The only difference is that other than the group call initiator, members cannot adjust their deskstation volume during the group call and are unable to leave the call.

Site B (remote)

Global muting is a muting function applied on lines and can only be set through iManager. It is applicable to hoots and ARD and MRD calls. It is best described using an example. Take, for example, a speaker channel that is monitored by several local and remote ZERO8 units. If a local ZERO8 changes the channel state from monitor to talk the speaker channel is muted on the other local ZERO8s. Remote units are still able monitor the same speaker channel. The scenario illustration located on the left helps to make this clearer. The illustration shows two sites monitoring Channel A. Site A is the local site, and Site B the remote site.
