Auto• The microphone will gate on according to the input level, assigned gating parameters, and gating
group.
Manual On• The microphone will gate on unless it exceeds the NOM requirements of the gating group.
Manual Off• The microphone is deactivated.
Gate Ratio Specifies how much louder the microphone audio level must be over the ambient sound level before a
microphone gates on.
Gating Controls The gating parameters that are assigned to a gating group, including:
Maximum Number of Mics• Sets the maximum number of mics that can be gated on simultaneously.
First Mic Priority• Increases the audio level required to gate on additional microphones after the first mic is
gated on.
Last Mic Mode • Sets the last-activated mic to Last On, Mic 1-8, or Off.
Gating Groups A set of gating parameters which can be applied to microphones connected to the local device, or
to microphones connected to other units on the Expansion Bus (Global Gating Groups A–D). Gating groups provide
greater flexibility and control of mics. See also Global Gating Bus and Expansion Bus.
Global Gating Bus Part of the Expansion Bus, these ten mix-minus buses (I-R) pass mic status and gate parameter
information such as First Mic Priority and NOM (Number of Open Mics). See also First Mic Priority and NOM.
GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) GPIO enables external devices to access the Converge Pro serial
command set, including common functions such as volume control, muting, room combining, and preset changes,
via the Control/Status A and B ports. All Converge Pro devices connected via the Expansion Bus can be controlled
from a single Control/Status port on any of the devices.
Hold Time The length of time that a microphone remains on after the voice (input) level drops below the gate ratio.
This can be used to prevent the microphone from gating off during brief pauses in speech.
HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) Part of the Internet protocol suite, HTTP is used to transmit information,
such as HTML pages, between servers and clients on IP networks.
Last Mic Mode Sets the last-activated mic to Last On, Mic 1-8, or Off. The Last On setting leaves the last-activated
mic gated on until another mic input gates on.
Macro A series of commands stored and executed together. Macros can be executed from within Converge
Console, using serial commands, and within Presets.
Manual Gating Provides the ability to gate a microphone on or off manually. See also Gating.
Matrix Mixer The Converge Pro mixer that allows routing of any input or combination of inputs to an output or any
combination of outputs. The Converge Pro mixer permits level control at each cross point in the matrix. See also
Cross Point.
Maximum Number of Mics Sets the maximum number of mics that can be gated on simultaneously.
MIB (Management Information Base) A database file that describes networked communication devices for
SNMP management purposes. See also SNMP.
Microphone Mixing The process which mixes audio signals from different microphones. All mic signals can be
mixed into one signal, any or all outputs, or mixed into separate groups. Microphone signals can also be processed
together or individually.
Min/Max Gain Level Yellow and green limit arrows in Console that set minimum and maximum gain levels
respectively for all channels. These arrows are available on the Gain Slider for each channel type. Min/Max limits
apply to all serially connected control devices, and are used to prevent users from adjusting levels beyond the
specified levels.
Mixer Mode The matrix mixer in Console has two settings: master and slave. Mixer mode is configured in the Unit
Properties window. See also Matrix Mixer and Unit Properties.
