Preset announcements can be sent to three different targets, also called as Intercom endpoints:
- In-Room - announcement directed at the simulation environment
Separate In-Room Intercom device - Facilitator - announcement sent to the facilitator's headset
Separate Facilitator Intercom device - Simulator - announcement uttered by the manikin ("Voice of Patient") Simulator
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:
See more on the Intercom page.
For live announcements, the microphone needs to be enabled in the browser settings.
The Intercom via Simulator function is only available for CAE Simulators, not for non-CAE (third-party) simulators.
In case of previous versions of CAE LearningSpace, learn about Why are some of the buttons in the Intercom panel inactive?
