Creating a synoptic view of the conference
For monitoring a conference as well as for intervening in a conference at
any time, you require a synoptic view of the conference room. In this
synoptic view, each conference console is represented by an icon.
This synoptic view can be “wallpapered” with a background picture (e.g. a
picture of the conference room). If you then position the conference
console icons exactly where the delegates are seated, you obtain an
intuitively operable conference system.
Creating a synoptic view file
̈ From the “Configuration” menu, choose “Room” or click the “Room
Configuration” button in the “SDC 8200” window.
The “Room” window opens.
The “Room” window consists of:
y the menu bar,
y the “Config”, “Init” and “Vip” tabs on the right-hand side of the
window
y the canvas for displaying and editing the synoptic view
y the display of the current mouse pointer coordinates on the canvas
as well as the green “File” box for the file name (above the tabs)
̈ From the “File” menu, choose “New”.
The main window turns white and the “Config”, “Init” and “Vip” tabs
become active. “new” is displayed in the green “File” box.
The drawing palette is not active. The drawing palette becomes active
when you have added a background picture to the synoptic view (see
“To create a new background picture for a synoptic view:” on page 24
or “To open an existing background picture for a synoptic view:” on
page 24).
