Use virtual members to play and record pcm files on a conference. Virtual members are connected to an ADI channel full duplex. Virtual members have no trunk connection.
Note: pcm files contain voice sampled at 8 kHz with 16 bit format (128 kbyte/s). You can create, edit, and play pcm files with the Cool Edit utility distributed with Natural Access. pcm files accessed by cnfjoin must be in the working directory.
Use the following menu options for virtual members:

Conferences are opened on separate resources. Each conference can host the maximum number of members available on a resource. When the m value is 1 (default value), only one conference is opened. If the m value is greater than 1, a master conference is opened on the first resource, and count number of child conferences are opened on the following count resources. Each child conference hosts a subset of the actual conferees plus a special member that is connected to the master conference. The master conference mixes the count special members and redistributes the mixing output to all the child conferences.
Note: Make sure that more than count + 1 resources are available on the same board to run this configuration.
