ACS AV Utility Closet

E40-358 is equipped with a utility closet containing many audio and video accessories. Here's what we have, and where it lives, shelf by shelf.

Shelf 1
Shelf 2
The laser pointer is stored in a clear-lidded plastic case.

The two Barco RCU's serve as back-up remotes for the electronic classrooms. These remotes also allow for projector reconvergence.

The ProPresenter, a credit-card sized remote control unit that allows you to control presentation software on the Mac, is stored in its eponymous nylon sack.

The wireless microphone has two components - the receiver and the small transmitter. The transmitter can be clipped to your waistband or fit into your hip pocket. The microphone has a small clip and functions best when positioned on a lapel, mic up and pointed toward your mouth.

The receiver must be turned on and both switches on the transmitter, for power and mic, must be on as well. In the pouch you'll also find a tiny screwdriver. One can make adjustments in sound quality by inserting and turning the screwdriver in the recessed white receptor located near the mic jack.

Shelf 3
The InFocus WS7600 is stored in a soft, padded travel case. It is relatively easy to carry. Be sure to remember to pack the appropriate adaptor cables.

Shelf 4
Each adaptor and extension cable is tagged to identify the platform it supports, and where it needs to connect.

An additional video cable with bnc adaptor is on the first shelf. Use it when there is a class in 1-115 that requires vcr connection to the Barco.
