iNote

The time to display the voting results on Concentus and Hall Displays can be defined in

the DCNNG.INI file:

[Common Voting]

ViewTimeAfterStop = TT

Where:

ViewTimeAfterStop The time to display the voting results. TT is between 0 and 200 seconds

If the settings is not in DCNNG.INI the default time is 60 seconds.

iNote

Normally, the number of delegates present during a voting is determined by the number of delegates that pressed the ‘PRESENT’ key on their units. When the LBB 4175 or LBB 4176 PC-software is used, this number can also be determined by the number of authorized delegates in the delegate database (100%- votes setting set to ‘Authorized’), or the number of people that actually casted a vote (100%- votes setting set to ‘Casted’). In these 2 cases, the ‘Present’-legend on the LBB 4183 Text Display and the LBB 4184 Video Display will switch to ‘Authorized’ or ‘Casted’. However, on the unit LCD’s and the LBB 4183 numeric displays, this legend will not be changed. This might be experienced as confusing. To prevent confusion, the display of the number of ‘Authorized’ or ‘Casted’ delegates on unit LCD’s and LBB 4183 numeric displays can be disabled. The following DCNNG.INI section

determines this setting:

[Startup]

DisablePresentNumber=No

Where:

DisablePresentNumber

When set to ‘Yes’, the display of number of Authorized Delegates or Casted Votes will be disabled

3.5.12 Specifying quorums and majorities It is possible to specify the minimum number of authorized delegates that must be present before a vote can take place. This is called a quorum. It is also possible to specify the percentage of votes, which will constitute a majority vote.

enabled or disabled.
