Introduction
The DCN-SWSMV Synoptic Microphone and Voting Software
provides a range of conference facilities when used in
combination with a DCN Wireless or DCN Next Generation
system. The available functions include automatic seat
assignment, synoptic microphone monitoring and control,
and voting management.
Although it offers many powerful features, the software is
extremely easy to use thanks to its innovative design. The
application moves away from traditional control panels and
buttons and replaces them with a highly intuitive graphic
user interface. All functions are controlled from a single
window making the software suitable for touch screen
operation. The software features on-screen help in most
major languages.
The user interface is based on a graphical representation of
the conference venue. When a device is connected to the
system it is automatically recognized and an icon is created
for it on the on-screen room layout. The icons display
information about device status and can be used by the
operator to select individual devices for remote control
functions. If a device becomes disconnected from the
system, a red cross is displayed on top of its icon to alert
the operator.
The Synoptic Microphone and Voting Software can operate
in the following modes, depending on the required task:
• Assignment mode allows you to assign names to
microphone icons. The positions of the icons on the room
layout can also be changed using the standard windows
‘drag & drop’.
• Microphone control mode allows you to observe and
control the state of each individual microphone.
Microphones can be switched on and off, or placed in the
‘request to speak’ queue.
• Battery and signal view mode shows the remaining
battery charge time and the signal strength for each
wireless discussion unit
• Voting result mode shows individual results in different
colors according to votes cast
Note: The different symbols in the various modes are
specially designed so that they are also easily
identified by persons with the visual disability of
color blindness.
The application provides parliamentary voting functionality.
The system operator can summon delegates to vote, as well
as starting and stopping voting sessions. Final vote results
can be automatically printed or exported to a file; the
software can also be configured to send real-time voting
information to Microsoft PowerPoint® for display.
