Preset announcements can be sent to three different targets, also called Intercom endpoints:
- In-Room - announcement directed at the simulation environment
- Facilitator - announcement sent to the facilitator's headset
- Simulator - announcement uttered by the manikin ("Voice of Patient")
IMPORTANT: The Intercom functionality of CAE LearningSpace requires the web browser to have access to the microphone of the client PC, which in turn requires a secure HTTPS connection to the CAE LearningSpace server.
The announcements can be added on the Intercom tab of the System module, then selected via the arrow in the announcement drop-down, after having highlighted the desired target (In-Room, Facilitator or both, and Simulator). The hardware assignment has to be completed in the Room Settings pop-up on the Rooms tab.
The Push-to-talk button will turn green 
while the preset announcement is being sent out:
Live announcements can also be sounded via the respective device by selecting a target device (In-Room, Facilitator or Simulator), and then clicking and holding the Push-to-Talk button.
If there is no valid Intercom destination available in the system, the Push-to-talk button is displayed in orange color (when pushing it)
and a warning message shows at the top of the page.
If Intercom setup is not completed (e.g a destination station needs to be reconnected), the Push-to-talk button is displayed in red color 
(when pushing it) and a warning message shows at the top of the page:
For live announcements, microphone needs to be enabled in the browser settings.
Mute videos while talking
During live announcements (using the Push-to-Talk function) all other camera speakers in the room can be muted by deactivating the 
Speaker icon.
The Intercom via Simulator function is only availabe for CAE Simulators, not for non-CAE (third-party) simulators.
