Computer lab Using the computer lab computers Please do not print during a lecture. You cannot print from Firefox, you must login with VDI-W7PV(number). Firefox allows only quick internet browsing, and deletes all history when closed. How to use the computer lab computers Turn on the computer (round power button). Double click icon: 'computerlab login'. Enter your e-username and password. Double click icon that appears at bottom left: VDI-W7PV(number). The windows system welcomes you, you can do your work and print if needed. Using the computer lab in the evenings or during the weekend For study and (discussion) groupwork, for registered students from ITM locations: Room C (Nationalestraat 155, first floor) and the Computer Room are assigned to this activity given their proximity to the reception where permanency is guaranteed by a security guard in the evenings and during the weekends. Room C and the Computer Room have the same access hours. Non-business access hours for students: On weekdays between 6 pm and 9 pm. During the weekend between 9 am and 5 pm. Procedure Notes Registration and reservation of these rooms is not necessary. The capacity of Room C is fixed at maximum 40 people, of the Computer Room at maximum 30. The security guarrd will be informed both on arrival and departure by the students (always mentioning the effective number of attending students). The security guard will be at the reception or otherwise can contacted by phone number 770 (or from outside at +32 (0)3 247 07 70). A telephone is available on the wall of the main entrance hall to the left of the reception door (only for internal calls). The hall is accessible through the parking (Sint-Rochusstraat) or through the biking stall (Kronenburgstraat) and through the side doors of the main building, when the main door (Nationalestraat) is closed. During the weekend the PC's of the Computer Room will have to be switched on and off manually (Start > Shut down). In the entire Institute, the heating will be lowered at night and cannot be regulated for an individual room. Hence, a sweater will come handy during winter. Each group will, upon leaving, verify if the room and the audiovisual equipment are back in the same state (placement of the tables) as upon arrival of the group. The consumption of food and beverages is NOT allowed in the room. Events organised by ITM (colloquiums or other ones) have priority in case of double bookings. The Computer Room is normally used for individual work (in silence). During weekends and during the week in the evenings, access is limited to the main hall and its neighboring rooms (Room C and Computer Room), so you may not enter other rooms or buildings of ITM.
