Triggering acoustic signals

You can use two different acoustic signals, e.g. to announce the beginning
of the conference or the start of the voting session. You can select the
signal via the options (see "Configuring acoustic signals" on page 36).
To trigger an acoustic signal:
In the tool palette or the voting window, click one of the buttons "Bell"
or "Start".
The signal is output via the sound card of the PC.
