Hi Everyone,
You're receiving this message since you should have access to 5180 (if
you don't and need it, email dgplab). Since there are only a small
group I'd like to try just letting you work amongst yourselves access to
the space.
How do we use 5180?
The max occupancy for 5180 is currently 1 person, so we'll need to use
it one at a time for build work. Print jobs can be set up remotely by
accessing 3dprint7910.dgpactive.dgp.sandbox and then coming in to set
the tray and start the job. I know some print jobs (or parts of them)
might require closer supervision, so for those cases you can use your
discretion about whether you need to work in the room during the job.
5180 has a small window beside the door. You can use that to check if
it is occupied. If it is, knock on the door to talk the current
occupant. Unless there are objections, I think it will work to let the
current user of the room and the person coming in work out a schedule to
access it, whether that's to come in when the other takes a break to
start a print job, or just finding out when they'll be done. If you
want, you can use hardware@dgp like the notice of disruption list, to
announce a planned visit to the hardware space.
What about the desk schedule?
The desk schedule is to manage occupancy in the rooms with the student
desks - the occupancy limits are cumulative for the entire space, but
separate rooms/spaces have separate limits. You can come into the lab
to use 5180 on non-shift days by checking the capacity. An easy way to
check capacity is to do a quick count on the sign-in sheet - less than
40 currently in should be okay. Don't go to your desk when you are in
to use 5180 unless you are also on your shift day, as it could affect
the distancing and occupancy limits for that space.
Thanks,
-John
