A translation station is a counter, booth or desk where staff and visitors talk through two-way translation. In SalamAI, a campaign groups several stations for one event or programme. The administrator sets the schedule, languages, access times and device rules once, and each station gets a private link and password, called a grant, without needing a full team account. Every station runs its own independent conversation, with its own audio setup and internet connection; the campaign manages access, not a shared audio feed. Use it for registration desks, help counters and exhibition booths. For medical or legal conversations, use a qualified interpreter.
How do you set up translation stations for an event?
Start by creating a campaign for the event and setting its schedule, access times, allowed languages and device rules. Then add a station for each counter, booth or desk, and give each one its grant: a private link and password for temporary access. At every station, set up a device with its own microphone or headset and a stable internet connection, because stations do not share one audio feed. Brief the staff to keep sentences short and let each translation finish. During the event, monitor active stations and respond to Help requests from the campaign workspace.
What if a station needs help during the event?
Station staff can send a Help request, and the campaign administrator responds from the campaign workspace, where the status of each active station is also visible. Where enabled, Help Angel (beta) gives setup guidance in the console and campaign page. Keep a short checklist at every counter: the right headset or microphone is selected, the internet is connected and both languages are set correctly. Because each station runs independently, a problem at one counter does not stop the others. Each station keeps its own grant, so there is no need to share a team account.
