The Chem 150 equipment key may be requested by departments or by faculty teaching in Chem 150.
Classroom keys and building master keys do not open these locks. Departments with faculty or staff needing access to the AV /computer equipment may want to have a key in their department office available for checkout. Or faculty and staff who make frequent use of classroom equipment may want to request a key for their personal use. In either case, a key request card must be completed, signed by the Dean or Department Head, and delivered to Facilities Management Key Shop. "AV Cabinets" must be printed at the top of the card to specify that the requested key is for the equipment cabinet and not for the room itself. A separate key request card for the room must be completed to obtain a room key.
The slide projector and remote control are located in the cabinet at the rear of the room. You must furnish your own slide tray.
This receptacle is located on the right hand side of the slide projector cabinet.
After the projector is plugged into the "Switched" receptacle you can turn the power on and off from this "Proj Stand Receptacle" switch or from the one at the front of the room in the AV cabinet.
Place your slide carousel on the projector and turn the power to the "HI" position.
This cable is normally plugged into the back of the slide projector. If it is not plugged into the back of the projector, find the cable labeled "Slide Projector" and plug it into the back socket of the projector.
The hand remote unit is also located on the top shelf of the slide projector cabinet. Take it from the slide projector cabinet and bring it to the front of the room.
The slide projector can now be operated via the remote unit at the front of the room.
The screen and shade switches are located in the two rightmost sections of the instruction table as you face the class. Use the Chem 150 cabinet key to unlock and open these doors.

The projector provides the best picture quality and brightness in a dark or dimly lit room. The window shades are lowered and raised by an electronic motor. The shades control switch is located in the top middle portion of the AV cabinet. Lower the switch to the down position.
Now adjust the lighting. The lighting control switches are located on the left wall of the room near both exits. You might want to experiment to find the best lighting option for your purposes. The left control panel has on/off switches for the overhead and front lecture lights. The right panel (front of the room only) controls the small round lights with an on/off button and sliding dimmer adjustment.
It is a good idea to adjust the lights after you have set up so you can see the controls better.
Full room lighting can be restored by switching on the overhead and front lecture lights.
The shades control switch is located in the AV cabinet. Raise the switch to the up position.
Flip the switch labeled "Projector Stand Receptacle." This switch is located next to the shades control switch.
