AD-DA.ca, QueueSpeak

Description

QueueSpeak turns a Q-SYS design into a conferencing, delegation and voting system. Delegates ask for the floor from their seat; their requests wait in the Request List, the seats allowed to speak are in the Active List, and the first seat of the Active List has the Focus. The plugin opens and mutes the seat microphones, points the cameras and switches the video router as seats move through these lists, and runs polls with live results and reports. It scales from a four-seat meeting room to a 265-seat assembly, with any microphone, any camera supported by the plugin and any control surface.

The plugin has five modes. One plugin in Normal mode holds the seats and the queue. The other modes connect to it, or to each other, by component name:

• Normal — the main plugin: seats, Request List and Active List, audio, cameras, timer and voting.

• Single Seat — controls one seat of a Normal plugin at a time, from its own controls, a Q-SYS TSCG3, an nnounce micnode2g or a web page. Connects to a Normal plugin, and optionally to a User Library plugin.

• User Library — a directory of delegates recalled by PIN code or NFC tag. Single Seat and Dashboard Web UCI plugins connect to it.

• Dashboard Web UCI — a browser dashboard for chairmen, operators and administrators. Connects to a Normal plugin, and optionally to a User Library plugin and a Logging plugin.

• Logging — records the seat and vote activity of a Normal plugin to a text file on the Core. Connects to a Normal plugin.

Key Features

• Up to 265 Seats — Each seat has its own name, role, priority, microphone, mix routing, cameras and vote controls, plus a Floor seat (Seat 0)

• Request List and Active List — Seats ask for the floor, are promoted to the Active List and take the Focus, with list limits, eviction, auto-promote and priority interruption

• Roles and Presets — Delegate, Chairman, Technician and Observer roles, each with its own Request, Release and microphone signal actions, saved in presets that are recalled in one step

• Automatic Camera Control — A primary and a secondary camera per seat, Q-SYS NC, Generic Visca or Panasonic PTZ, a standby camera prepared before the switch, and audio-driven switching between active seats

• Audio Routing — Gain-sharing automatic mixer, Floor Mix, up to eight group mixes (A to H), optional mix-minus and direct outputs per seat, and actions driven by the microphone signal

• Voting — Prepared polls, weighted and anonymous votes, role-based eligibility, live results and JSON and PDF reports

• Web Pages — A delegate page served by a Single Seat plugin and a full Dashboard Web UCI with user levels and a kiosk mode, without extra hardware

• User Library — Delegates log in on a seat by PIN code or NFC tag, which recalls their name, role, priority, gain, mixes and vote weight

• 15 Languages — Vote reports and every web page follow the Language property, and a browser can pick another language

Properties

License

Type: string
Default Value: (empty)
Description: License key of the primary Core. A license is issued per Core: it runs as many QueueSpeak plugins as needed on that Core and cannot be moved to another Core. The voting, camera and User Library features are enabled by the license. Keys can be entered offline. Without a valid license the plugin runs in demo mode for 30 minutes; in emulation every feature is enabled for free, so a design can be prepared without a Core. To purchase a license, go to https://ad-da.ca. Only in Normal mode.

License Backup

Type: string
Default Value: (empty)
Description: License key of the backup Core, used when the primary key is not valid on the Core running the design. When the primary Core fails, the backup Core takes over without its own license, but a design that boots on the backup Core, or a backup Core that restarts, needs a valid backup key. Only in Normal mode.

Single Seat Mode

A plugin in Single Seat mode follows one seat of a Normal plugin at a time, the seat chosen with Seat Selector. Its controls are generic: they always carry the same names and pins whatever the seat, so a custom UCI or a touch panel can be built once and pointed at any seat. Depending on the TSC Type property, it also drives a Q-SYS TSCG3 touch panel, an nnounce micnode2g, or serves its own web page for the seat. With the User Library property on, a delegate can log in to the seat with a PIN code or an NFC tag stored in a User Library plugin.

Each control of the Controls page is linked to the control of the same name of the selected seat on the Normal plugin (SeatName to Seat<n>Name, VoteSeatWeight to VoteSeat<n>Weight...): a change on either side is shown on the other, and a control disabled on the Normal plugin is disabled here. When no Normal plugin is connected, every control is disabled and empty.

With TSC Type set to Web, the plugin serves a web page for the seat, opened in the browser of a tablet or a phone, at the address shown in URL. The delegate logs in with a name, or with a PIN code when the User Library is used, then has the buttons chosen in Buttons. A menu on the page gives a language selector, remembered by the browser, and a Logout button. Only one browser at a time can open the page of a seat; another one is told that the page is already open on another device.

With the User Library property on, Recall, an NFC tag read by the TSCG3 sensors, or a PIN code typed on the web page recalls the delegate onto the seat. The recall works only when the Normal plugin's license includes the User Library feature (see Feature - User Library on its About page).

A plugin in Dashboard Web UCI mode serves a dashboard for moderators and administrators, opened in a web browser from the Q-SYS Core at the address shown in URL (http://<Core address>:8000/). It follows a Normal plugin, and optionally a User Library plugin and a Logging plugin. The page updates live and reconnects by itself after a network loss.

The web application has these pages, chosen from a side menu:

• Dashboard — focus and standby seats, Request List and Active List with their actions, the seat grid when Dashboard Seats Controls is on, and the timer.

• Vote Dashboard — the poll in progress with live results, the PDF report of a completed poll, and the list of saved vote reports. Only when Voting is on.

• Vote Editor — the polls and their options, as on the Vote Editor page. Only when Voting is on; administrators only.

• User Library — the delegates of the selected User Library plugin, as on its Library page. Administrators only.

• Logs — recent entries, download of the current log file, log settings and past log files of the selected Logging plugin. Administrators only.

• Settings — the active preset; administrators also get the room name, the preset editor and the web users.

The side menu also holds the language selector, which changes the language for that browser only, a light or dark theme, and Help. Help, also opened with ?, lists the keyboard shortcuts (Space next seat, B block, R reset all, T play or pause the timer, S stop it, arrows to change it, F1 to F5 to switch pages) and starts a guided tour that highlights each part of the pages the user can see.

Kiosk mode turns the Dashboard into a read-only display for a public screen: no menu and no buttons, a large countdown, and the Vote Dashboard shown while a poll is in progress. It is turned on by opening the address with ?kiosk=1 (?kiosk=0 turns it off) and is remembered by the browser.

A lock screen asks for a passcode, matched against the web users of the Configuration page. The role of the user sets the access:

• Guest — kiosk mode only, no action possible, even through the server.

• Operator — Dashboard and Vote Dashboard, and the active preset on Settings.

• Administrator — everything, including the Vote Editor, User Library, Logs, the timer settings, the preset editor and the web users.

The web users are managed on the Configuration page or by an administrator on the Settings page of the web application; both stay in step. The list is also saved on the Q-SYS Core in media/QueueSpeak/DashboardWebUsers.json.

Logging Mode

A plugin in Logging mode records the activity of a Normal plugin: seats becoming active or taking the focus, requests, returns to idle, speaking time, moderator overrides and polls. Each entry is time-stamped ([YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.mmm]) and names the seat according to Delegate ID/Name format. The entries are shown on the page and written to a text file on the Q-SYS Core, in media/QueueSpeak/<Room Name>/Logs/, one file per day named after the date (2026-10-14.txt). New entries reach the file within 3 seconds. A Dashboard Web UCI plugin can show the log and download its files.
