Interpreter desk channel setup for 6 languages

Setting up 6 languages on the VISSONIC interpreter desk is straightforward — the VIS-DIS6400 supports up to 64 channels, so 6 languages is well within its capability.

Configuration steps for the VIS-DIS6400 Full Digital 64-Channel Interpreter Desk:

Assign language channels — using the interpreter desk's setup menu or the conference system configuration software, assign each of the 6 languages to a dedicated channel (e.g., Channel 1 = English/Floor, Channel 2 = French, Channel 3 = Spanish, etc.).

Configure relay mode — interpreters for less common languages can use relay interpretation — they listen to an intermediate language (e.g., English) and interpret from there, rather than directly from the floor. The VIS-DIS6400 supports this with a dedicated relay button.

Set output channel — each interpreter desk outputs to one specific language channel. The interpreter selects their output channel on the desk's channel selector.

Connect to the infrared system — the interpreter outputs feed into the VIS-VLI700A Digital Infrared Transmitter, which broadcasts all language channels to the VIS-VLI703A Infrared Receivers used by delegates.

Equipment needed for a 6-language setup:

6 x VIS-DIS6400 Interpreter Desks (one per language, plus a spare)

1 x VIS-VLI700A Digital Infrared Transmitter

Multiple VIS-VLI703A Infrared Receivers (one per delegate)

Infrared Radiators — sufficient quantity for full room coverage

For the interpreter desks, an interpreter headset (VIS-HS01 Headphone for Interpreter with Mic Input) is recommended for hands-free operation. The desk's built-in monitor speaker lets the interpreter hear the floor channel while speaking into the headset mic.
