| Step 1: |
|
Set up 'tech' table with computers - both primary and back-up computers |
| |
Step 2: |
Run and test video and audio feeds to A/V supplier - both primary and back-up computers |
| |
Step 3: |
Set up and test response system. With wireless systems, it is best to place the interface unit at a location at the side of the room, as elevated as possible. Set-up wireless antenna extensions and test the range on the wireless keypads by walking the perimeter of the room with a keypad and punching in responses to see if they are collected across the room. It is not necessary to have the interface connected to the computer to conduct this test. The communication tested here is between the keypad and the interface. |
| |
Step 4: |
Run diagnostic map on the computer while setting out and testing all individual keypads to ensure communication of keypads is passing through to the serial port. Also, after testing all keypads, reset map and test for interference by leaving the map up for a while without pressing any keypads. You should not see any "sporadic" data come up on the map. |
