Starting a voting session

A voting session can be started by either the chairman or – provided that a PC with software control is connected to the central unit – the conference manager.

With the SDC 8000 CV chairman unit with voting function, you can start a voting session as follows:

Choose one of the two voting modes “1 of 3” or “1 of 5” by pressing the corresponding key below the display.

Depending on the voting mode chosen, your display looks like one of the two displays shown on the left.

Ask the participants to cast their vote.

Cast your own vote by pressing one of the keys below “YES”, “NO” or “ABS” (mode “1 of 3”) or below “1” to “5” (mode “1 of 5”).

Make sure that all conference participants have cast their vote.

To stop the voting session:

y Stop “Vote 1/3” by pressing the key below “STOP”.

The voting result is shown on the displays of the consoles.

Press the key below “END” to clear the voting result from the displays.

y Stop “Vote 1/5” by pressing the PRIOR. key.

The voting result is shown on the displays of the consoles.

Press the PRIOR. key again to clear the voting result from the displays.

Assigning a participant the “speaking right”

If – in “With Request” or “With Req. No Clear” mode – a participant presses the MICRO key on his console, he makes a request to speak. All participants who have made a request to speak will join a request-to-speak list.

To assign the first participant from the request-to-speak list the “speaking right” using the SDC 8000 C or SDC 8000 CC chairman unit:
