When this option is checked, the seat indicated under
Chair seat number
is initially
vacant and will be swapped with another seat in the chamber before voting or taking
attendance. Once the swap is made, the selected seat becomes vacant. Subsequent voting
signals received from the vacant seat will be interpretted and displayed as if they had
came from the chair seat. The following subordinate options are available:
•
Manual chair seat selection required
The operator must explicitly indicate which seat to swap with the vacant chair seat
prior to taking attendance or a vote.
•
Automatically select seat
When no explicit chair seat selection has yet been made, this option tells the server
to implicitly select the indicated seat to swap with the vacant chair seat upon the first
attempt to take attendance or a vote.
