General Notes

All A/V equipment can be controlled via the AMX control panel located on the workstation desktop. The only reason you may need to open the rack door is to insert a disc or tape. The equipment in the rack may be left on except for known periods of downtime (long weekends, vacations, etc.). During these known periods of downtime, the vendor suggests the equipment be turned off.

Control Functions

LCD Projector: The NEC projector is turned on and off by the buttons so labeled in the top left hand corner of the AMX panel. The projector should be turned off after each use to conserve bulb life. The projector will shut off automatically when left on, but unused, for two hours. Do not turn the projector on and off in quick succession. Once on, wait at least 30 seconds before turning off again. The wireless remote will not operate the projector. This projector has been hard wired to the AMX control panel. 

IMPORTANT: If the projector turns itself off, it is overheated. When it is ready to be turned on again, a yellow light will be visible on the projector. To turn the projector on again, press the "ON" button of the AMX panel. THE PROJECTOR WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY TURN ITSELF ON AFTER IT HAS COOLED DOWN.   IT MUST BE MANUALLY TURNED ON.
