Data Management Update
FAIR@UiO is a big initiative surrounding data management. IBM Spectrum Discovery has been purchased to help create a metadata database. RITMO(Kayla) is helping as an end user input. More info including use case demo at next lab meeting. If you are interested in getting more involved, let us know.
Videomixer can now use ceiling microphones as input sound for higher quality over the internal camera microphones. Video can be recorded locally on the SD card in the video mixer which should remain there. Video is sent to MoCap computer for recording within QTM via HDMI cable. Reminder about PGM fader, set to around -10 as default but if turned all the way down there will be no sound. Demonstration of camera switching and audio selection. For more instructions, see handbook.
Discussion of default settings and reminder to RETURN SETTINGS TO DEFAULT IF YOU CHANGE THEM
Headphones attached to video mixer are fixed, do not remove these
Talkback system can play sound in control room and front speakers in lab using the BigKnob. Inputs from Audio computer, Mocap computer, and videomixer or line in. Built in microphone can be used to give instructions to participants. There are lots of knobs controlling what signals are used, volume, noise, etc so make sure you practice first. Full instructions see handbook.
Sometimes lab speakers or control room speakers are manually turned off or volume turned down (control room) reminder to check that first if you want to use the system.
Preamp is used for phantom power for ceiling microphones. Remember to turn this on if you want to use them.
Kayla to create updated laminated basic instructions for posting in lab
Also to make a PanicMode binder with images for troubleshooting on the fly
