How to get started
Pre-requisite steps before use
The system has now been installed successfully.
The following sections describe the necessary steps to get started. However please refer to the CAA User
Manual, the CUA User Manual and CDA User Manual for a throughout description of how to use the SW 6000
System.
Steps
1. Connect the CU 6005/6011 Central Unit (CU) to the PC, where the CUI is installed, with a RS232 cable.
2. Turn on the CU 6005/6011 Central Unit (CU) with all units (Delegate Units, Chairman Units, AO units
etc.) connected.
3. Start the CU Interface Application (CUI).
If the CUI version is not compatible with the database you will be advised to start the CAA to
automatically update the database. You will then have to restart the CUI.
When the CUI Application starts to communicate with the CU it will receive information for all units
connected to the CU. The CUI Application will then create one seat in the Seat assignment table for
each Chairman Unit and Delegate Unit, numbering the seats, starting at one and counting upwards.
Hint: To make is easier later to assign delegates to seats and to make Mimic diagrams the seats should
be renumbered to give a more logical order.
4. Start the Conference Administration Application (CAA). If needed the Database will be upgraded
automatically.
5. Select the “Setup/Equipment/Conference Units”. Assign computer names for each of the seats where
there is a PC on the network that will run the Conference User Application (CUA).
6. Select the Mimic screen from the “Setup/Configuration/Mimic Configuration” and create a new Mimic
diagram.
Creating a Mimic diagram requires the user to import a bitmap showing the room or hall as a
background image and then to import all seats onto the Mimic diagram and position the coloured dots
representing a microphone or seat.
7. Select the User Type screen from the “Setup/User Type” and create additional user types (e.g. Vice
Chairman) to be used when creating the list of Delegates and to be used as defaults for the seats when
no one is logged in. The user types that are created during installation can either be modified or deleted
(the Chairman and Delegate user type can be modified but not deleted).
The User Type determines individual microphone settings, screens, buttons and functions that will be
available when a user is logging into the CUA.
A User Type is also associated with each seat to determine the settings that must apply as default when
no one is logged in.
