Restricting Cursor Metering
It may be desirable to restrict operators from using the cursor meter to
prevent unnecessary usage of system resources.
A user restrictions option to prevent cursor metering is available to
administrators. If this option is selected it is saved as part of a
Production Maestro configuration file (see “Restricting Cursor
Metering” on page 1-39).
When a non-administrative user loads a configuration file with cursor
metering disabled the cursor meter will be hidden and the user will not
be able to use the cursor meter.
Running out of Meters
It is still possible to attempt to assign meters to a 4-Wire port or
conference when zero free meters are reported. This is because the
4-Wire port or conference may already have a meter assigned to it and
the audio level data is already being broadcast. In this case a new
meter does not need to be assigned to the target.
However if an attempt is made to assign a meter that requires an
additional meter and no free meters are available, a message is shown
to the user. No attempt is made to automatically add the meter if a
meter later becomes available - the user must repeat the assignment
of the meter at a later point to add a new meter.
