8.5 Managing Speakers from the Web Browser

For increased control over the discussion, the chairman
uses web interface to activate microphones. The
Microphone Control page is a dedicated page 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 delegate 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
Begin by opening the browser interface. Select the
Microphone Control button from the main menu. The
dedicated page for microphone control will open.
There are two main lists from the Microphone Control
page:
8.5.1 Chairman Control
The following buttons are available to the chairman for
controlling the delegate microphones:
Speak
Instantly turn on a delegate's microphone. Select this
button to view all discussion units in the system, including
those in the request queue. Select a delegate to add them
to the Speak list.
Request
Add a delegate to the request queue to put them in line
for speaking. Select from any delegate in the system,
excluding the chairman.
Speaker List (Red)
The speaker list displays the name and seat number of
each active microphone. The list displays in chronological,
with the most recently activated microphone at the top
of the list. A red box turns on next to the seat number for
quick visual identification.
Request Queue (Green)
Delegates in this list are next up for speaking. Primarily
useful when operating in First In First Out mode (FIFO),
the queue chronologically lists all delegates that have
pressed their speak button. Once an opening is available
in the speak list, the delegate at the top of the queue list is
automatically turned on.
Next On
Activates the delegate microphone at the top of the request
queue. If the maximum speaker count has been reached,
the new speaker replaces the last one on the list.
All Del. Off
Turns off all delegate units, leaving only the chairman in
the speaker list. The same button appears on the chairman
discussion unit.
All Req. Off
Removes all delegates from the request queue.
