Contents
Specifications
- 48 networked Windows computers with WIN domain credential logins split up into 24 lab benches
- 1 instructor station Windows 8.1 - equipped with a SMART Sympodium
- Projection system with screen
- WolfVision document camera
- 25 National Instruments NI PCI 6014e or NI PCI 6221 cards (one at instructor station, one per lab bench)
- 20 Circuit Specialists PBB 272 powered breadboards
- 20 Circuit Specialists MS8264 digital multimeters
Using the PCs to Run Unix Programs Remotely
Here is the somewhat long-form of the log-in procedure:
- Pick a PC
- Log in using your OIT WIN credentials
- Start MobaXterm
- Type
ssh -XY NETID@login-teer.oit.duke.edu
- where NETID is your NET ID in lower case.
- If you are thinking about printing during this session, type to check the line printer queue - if there are no entries, you are set. If there is a list of files, the particular Teer machine to which you have connected is detached from the ePrint queue. If you are planning to print anything out, you will want to log into a different Teer machine.
