Managing Speakers from the Web Browser

For increased control over the meeting, the chairman uses the browser interface to activate microphones. The
chairman page is dedicated for controlling the speaker list and request queue. The chairman can manually turn on/
off microphones, or simply monitor the list in an automatic mode. Using the interface, the chairman can easily:
• Click on a participant name to turn on the microphone, or add them to the request queue.
• View who is speaking and who is waiting their turn to speak
There are two main lists from the Microphone Control page:
Speaker List (Red)
Request Queue (Green)
Open the Chairman Page
For access to the chairman page, enter the IP address of the CCU, followed by /chairman (example: http://
172.17.11.137/chairman).

sual identification.
Delegates in this list are next up for speaking. Primarily useful when operating in
