Monitor Rack

Here is a table of how the monitors in the rack are identified. The monitor patch panel also gives the option of a monitor 19 and a monitor 20. Unfortunately there's not much provision in the rack of space to occupy them, so if 19 or 20 are used they're usually simply a monitor placed on the floor.

1	2	3	4	5	6
7	8	9	10	11	12
13	14	15	16	17	18

Here is a table detailing what each monitor displays.

Net Out	Stream Out	Mux 1 Out	Mux 2 Out	Mux 3 Out	Mux 4 Out
??Gfx PC??	??DaVE 'Preview'??	9	10	11	12
13	??Dave 'Program'??	DaVE 1 In	DaVE 2 In	DaVE 3 In	DaVE 4 In

I don't know what 13 is off the top of my head, but 9,10,11,12 have VT PC Out, Edit 1 Out, Vidserv In, and Videserv Out in some order.

Over the Christmas holiday DaVE Program and DaVE Preview will probably be swapped over. This was Iain Cooke's idea at the start of term to be conducive to new members learning how DaVE works. I didn't do it then with everything else happening, and nearer the end of term the freshers had already got used to it one way so I didn't want to swap it over and confuse them. Hopefully the festive celebrations will mean people have forgotten which monitor displays what and the won't notice them in a more sensible arrangement when they arrive back at the start of the Spring term.--Malcolm.chambers 20:39, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
