The operator screen, explained

The operator screen is mission control for a live service. Before you run one, take a minute to learn the layout — everything you'll touch on Sunday is here.

The main panels

• Live transcript — what you're saying, transcribed as you speak.
• Translation — the same words in the room's language, streaming in real time.
• Language pair selector — with your saved favorites for one-tap switching.

The live bar and Setup

• Monitor on / off — whether YOU hear the translation at the desk. Listeners are never affected.
• Setup — everything decided before you start: the language pair and favourites, the microphone, the voice (gender, speed, quality), delivery mode, and the talk's context and documents.
• Delivery — Sentence, Phrase or Flash: how much speech is gathered before each translation.
• Mute mic — pause the microphone without ending the session.
• End & clear (in the ⋯ menu) — stop the broadcast and wipe the on-screen transcript for everyone.
• Projector view (in the ⋯ menu) — open the big-screen display in a new tab.

Two things to watch

• The health light — one indicator that all systems are healthy.
• Document upload — add sermon notes so names and key terms come through right.
