This page shows you how to use the touchscreen card-reader Podcast recording equipment.
Please note not all rooms have video cameras installed so some instructions will not be relevant to all.
Step 1
All users who require access to the published video should tap their ID cards onto the NFC card reader (image 1 below).
Step 2
Once all cards have been tapped, click the Unlock button (shown in image 2).
Step 3
If in a location with a camera, adjust the video camera angle using the control buttons on the screen (image 3).
- The zoom in and out buttons allow you to focus in or out with the camera.
- Changing the zoom speed will allow you to zoom in or out quicker (if the slider is moved down) or slower (if moved up).
- In rooms which have more than one camera, select which camera to control by clicking the select camera button. This will then enable you to control that particular camera.
- Press any of the directional arrow buttons to move the camera in that direction. Each press will move the camera a certain distance in that direction.
- Changing the pan speed will allow the camera to move quicker (if the slider is moved down) or slower (if moved up).
- The home button will reset the camera to the default position.
Step 4
Press the
button to being the recording. The camera can be adjusted whilst recording using the controls. If additional users require access during a recording, you can press the lockscreen button – which will allow new users to tap their ID cards onto the card reader. Again, press unlock to get back to the camera control screen.
Step 5
Press the
button to stop the recording.
Step 6
