CTControl to be used with existing conference equipment or a specific Close Talk
Delegate Unit used as dedicated platform microphone.
Know your speakers
CT Control includes a powerful delegate database where conference
participants are specified.
Preparing a delegate list for your conference is a good way of making it more
'personal', speak and reply requests will be shown on the list's using actual
names. Delegates will also be referred to by their own name in vote
displays and in vote result reports.
The delegate list editor includes powerful database management functionality

list a breeze.

Powerful presentation functionality

several ways, tabular, as graphs, as summary, as geo-placement, etc.
The Main Display is a separate program window showing conference and voting
status. It can be used for projection, video taping, internal TV-network
broadcasting and web-casting.
Roll call
The roll call function can be used in a formal fashion, calling each delegate
in turn while updating the attendance, or with the 'Free arrival' function where
arriving delegates report their presence with a simple push of a button as they
arrive.
It is also used for system installation.
