the calculated value of the majority.

  Starting voting 

Before the voting start it is possible to activate an 
attention tone. This attention tone can be used to 
page the delegates before the vote starts. To activate 
an attention tone: 

•  Click on the ‘Page’ push button. 

Once you have paged the delegates, you can start a 
vote on the selected motion. To start voting: 

•  Click on the ‘Start’ push button. 

If you attempt to start voting on a motion that has 
already been voted on, a message will be displayed 
with the following text: 

•  Click on the ‘Ok’ push button to continue voting 

and to overwrite the existing motion. 

•  Click on the ‘Cancel’ push button to stop voting. 

Once the voting procedure is initialised, the delegates 
can start casting their votes. The ‘Next’ and ‘Recall’ 
push buttons are disabled while voting is taking 
place. If the timer is enabled, the ‘Time’ display will 
be updated every second to show the available time 
left to vote. If the ‘Interim Results’ option is enabled, 
the incoming votes will be displayed on screen. It is 
possible to control a vote, which is taking place. 

4.3.3

  Controlling voting 

While voting is taking place it is possible to hold, 
restart or stop the voting. Holding and restarting is 
accomplished using the push button which initially 

displayed the ‘Start’ text, whose function and text 
changes depending on the state of the voting. The 
full range of possibilities for this push button are: 

• 

Before voting has been started, the push button 
displays the text ‘Start’ and is used to start voting. 

• 

Once voting has started, the push button displays 
the text ‘Hold’ and is used to suspend voting. 

• 

If voting has been suspended, the push button 
displays the text ‘Restart’ and is used to restart 
voting. 

• 

Once voting has been restarted, the push button 
displays the text ‘Hold’ and is used to suspend 
voting. 

• 

Once voting has been completed, (and the ‘Stop’ 
push button has been pressed), the push button 
displays the text ‘Start’ and is used to start voting 
(on a new voting, or to re-vote on the same 
motion). 

 

 i 

   Note 

The voting state can also change due to the 
action of the timer. If a time limit has been 
specified and ‘Auto Vote Stop’ is active, voting 
is suspended once the time limit is reached. 
The push button will display the text ‘Start’ and 
can be used to restart voting. If ‘Auto Vote 
Stop’ is not active voting can still continue until 
manually stopped. To enable the timer or alter 
the time allowed, see Timed Vote. 

 
To stop a vote: 

•  Click on the ‘Stop’ push button. 

When you click on ‘Stop’, delegates will be unable to 
cast any more votes. Any conferencing facilities 
suspended during voting will be restarted. The timer 
is reset, and the push button alongside ‘Stop’ displays 
the text ‘Start’ and is used to start voting (on a new 
motion or to re-vote on the same motion).
