Voting Keypads Frequently Asked Questions

We arrive on site with our audience voting keypads and associated hardware. The system runs on one laptop (plus a backup), which we supply. This laptop is dedicated to voting only. If you’re running another PowerPoint presentation, this needs to be run on your own laptop. We then provide a VGA or HDMI switcher to switch between the laptops (if an onsite switcher is not already available). Please note: we do not normally include any other A.V. equipment (i.e. a screen or projector) as these are usually already in place but these can be quoted for on request.

This depends on the venue and the number of keypads at your event. We can usually set up our audience response system in 60 minutes for up to around 150 – 200 keypads. We always like to allow hour and half to be well prepared.

Before your event • Your slide template/branding (ie background and logos) • Event details – times, location, onsite contact. • Details of the audio visual set up in the room or a contact person at the hotel or AV company. Up to 3 days before your event (latest) • Word or Powerpoint docuemnt with your quesions and answers (Must not be a PDF) Changes and additions can be made onsite. 2 hours before your event or rehearsals at the venue Our technician will need: • Some space in the room to operate two laptops, ideally in sight of the presenter or very close by • An HDMI screen input to either the main projector or a switcher, provided by the venue or AV provider • A sound feed to the room audio system (if you require countdown sound effects) • A 13A power socket.

Yes we can add or edit questions onsite and during the meeting. Often questions can be decided during meetings and voted on.

An advantage of our keypads is they are compact and lightweight. If the distribution of the pads is managed correctly and announcements are made, then it is unlikely keypads go missing. We will help and assist you on the day.

Our Reply keypads which we provide when you have a technican do offer text based feedback and Q&A. We do howver have an additional product where users can text in feedback with their smartphones. Contact us (undefined)if you would like further infomation about this.

The system is MS powerpoint based so you can create your slides to match your other presentations and branding. If you have a techncian at your event we make up your slides for you.
