常见问题
What if the Alertus e-Panic Button doesn’t activate properly?
What if my computer is department-managed and not supported by UTS? 能给我电子紧急按钮吗?
是的. Please coordinate with your department IT administrator and with UTS. They can work together to get the client installed on your computer.
Does my work laptop have the e-Panic button?
这取决于. If your laptop is UTS-supported, then you should have the client. If it is department-managed, refer to the question above for installation.
Will my e-Panic button on my laptop work if I’m at home?
No. This function is only available when you are on the 在线博彩 network.
I have Windows 10, and my Alertus client is prompting me with an administrator error. 我该怎么办??
Some Windows 10 users may see a prompt requiring an administrator approval to use Alertus; however, you can click “approve” at the bottom of the prompt to proceed. You do not need administrator approval to use the e-Panic button.
Can I discreetly use the e-Panic button while projecting my screen?
If you are using a projector in a classroom or conference room, you may be able to pause active projection of your screen prior to activating the e-Panic button. 在有触摸屏的领奖台上, select the “Projector Mute” button; on older podiums with manual buttons, select “Pic Mute” next to the power on/off buttons.
Not all classrooms have these projector options, so please familiarize yourself with classroom technology.
What if I don’t know my room number?
Check the "Classroom:" label on your computer monitor. If you are at a podium with a touchscreen, there should be a similar label with the room number on the podium's monitor.
