Intercom Announcements

Intercom Announcements can be sent to the following endpoints:

• In-Room - the Room button sends announcements to the simulation area

  Note
  In case no network speakers are used as intercom devices, a DAK (Digital Audio Kit) has to be connected and assigned to the Room (corresponding to the simulation area) via the Rooms tab of the System module, as a Separate In-room Intercom device

  
  

• Facilitator - a device (e.g. headset) can be connected for direct communication with the facilitator, which can be assigned to the room as Separate Facilitator Intercom devices via the Rooms tab of the System module.

• Simulator - a Maestro-ready simulator can be connected and used for sending announcements through the manikin.

  Info
  NOTE: Once the simulator is connected, the Intercom is also connected for the manikin.

  
  

Pre-Recorded Intercom Announcements

During events, you can send Pre-Recorded Intercom Announcements to the Room and to the Facilitator - to give instructions to the Learners or Facilitators -  by selecting them via the arrow in the announcement drop-down, after having highlighted the desired target (In-Room, Facilitator or both, and Simulator).

The Intercom endpoints can be Separate In-room Intercom devices and/or Separate Facilitator Intercom devices placed within the physical rooms of your institution and assigned to the rooms within your LearningSpace system (in the System module, Rooms tab).

These announcements can be recorded and managed on the Intercom page of the System module:
