CallMe (Alt+5)

CallMe lets people call your RODECaster directly, and lets you call them. Anyone with a RODECaster of their own can call your desk's code, and anyone else can call from a web browser by opening your guest link, with nothing to install. Calls go over the desk's own wifi or network cable, not this computer, and they are announced wherever you are, so you do not need to be on this page when one comes in.

• Not ready for calls: A call cannot connect while the desk is offline or CallMe 1 is on no fader, and neither the desk nor the guest is told why. Until both are fixed, the page shows only what is wrong, with the fix beside it.
• Current call: Who is calling, who you are calling, or who you are talking to, then Answer, Decline or Hang up, and Extend the call. Decline always turns a ringing call away first, so a second caller is declined rather than the guest you are with being cut off. From any program, Ctrl, Alt and Shift with C answers and with D declines or hangs up. During a call, its length and its quality are listed below.
• The one-hour limit: On RODE's free and standard plans a call ends after an hour unless it is extended. Five minutes before, you are told, and Extend the call, or the answer shortcut, gives it another hour. Extend calls automatically, on the Plan page, does it for you.
• Incoming calls: Accept incoming calls gives the desk a code, which another RODECaster dials, and a guest link for everyone else. Switching it off and on again gets a new code, so a link you have already shared stops working. Ring for incoming calls plays a ringtone through your announcement output until the call is answered.
• Make a call: Type the code from the other desk's CallMe screen, or paste a guest link they have sent, and press Call. Save a contact with a name and a code, and calls to and from that desk are announced by name; each contact can go on a keyboard shortcut too. If a contact's code stops working, its owner has switched incoming calls off and on, so ask them for the new one.
• Plan: Your CallMe plan, the minutes left and when they reset. The free plan, CallMe Lite, takes one guest at a time.
