Options

4 Vote Labels

Configuring the display of the voting options

If the conference manager or chaiman starts a voting session, the voting options are shown on the displays of all conference consoles:

MIC N.:	0001			MIC	N.:	0001
VOTE 1 OF 3					VOTE 1 OF 5
+	0	-		++	+	0	-	--

To change the indication of the voting options:

From the central unit’s operating menu, choose “Conference”, “Options” and ”Vote Labels” one after the other.

Choose the voting option whose indication you want to change („1 ++”, “2 +”, “3 0”, “4 -” or “5 --”) and press the ENTER key.

Use the jog wheel to select the first character of the voting option and press the ENTER key.

In the same way, select and enter the second and third character of the voting option. You can enter a maximum of three characters. If you wish to enter less than three characters, you have to enter a space instead of a character.

Configuring the interpretation system

Apart from the conference system, the SDC 8200 system comprises a sep- arate interpretation system. To be able to make use of the interpretation system, you require the SDC 8200 ID interpreter consoles.

Via the “Interpretation” menu, you can quickly and easily configure the interpretation system.

Working with the interpreter configuration

The following features of your interpretation system are put together in an interpreter configuration:

yThe number of booths and the number of interpreter consoles per booth (see “Setting the max. number of interpreter booths/languages” on page 96 und “Setting the max. number of interpreter consoles per booth” on page 96).

yThe operating modes between booths and within booths (see “Configur- ing the operating mode between booths” on page 96 and “Configuring the operating mode within a booth” on page 97).

yThe main target languages of the respective booths (see “Configuring the main target language (A-channel) of a booth” on page 98).
