Moderator control

Marratech 6.0 client enables moderator functionality in the ANJ e-meeting rooms. You must be set as a Moderator by the portal admin to use this.

Here is a quick description of the roles:

  • Moderator: Unrestricted plus possibility to kick and lock. Ability to upgrade and downgrade other users' roles during a meeting.
  • Presenter: Unrestricted without ability to downgrade / upgrade users.
  • Student: Only send public audio, video and chat and use Tele-pointer to point.
  • Listener: Receive only client.

You can determine the moderation level of a user just by pointing at them in the Participants module:

[M]: Moderator
[P]: Presenter
[S]: Student
[L]: Listener


Moderator Controls
To use the Moderator Controls Alt + click (Mac users Option + click) on participants windows and select from contextual menu.


Muting and Un-muting audio and video can be done in this menu as determined by a Moderator.
Moderators (only) also have the ability to kick out participants and lock e-meeting rooms.

Locking a meeting room / Kicking a participant
Locking a meeting room requires moderator privileges. Once all participants have joined your meeting, simply lock the "door" behind you. You can even "kick" an unwanted user from an meeting room.

1. Select the viewer from the Whiteboard / Viewer selector button at bottom.

2. Press the Star icon to open the welcome page.


If you are a moderator, lock and kick functionality is available from the E-Meeting room's welcome page.

3. To "kick" a participant, just go to the bottom of the Welcome page under the Participants heading, click on the participant you wish to eject and click the mouse on the Kick button. Note that only Moderators can use this feature and it can take up to one minute for the kick command to take place.
