How to Log-on to Computers in HEC 613


	FAU Students and teachers can log-on using an active Network Access Account user name and password. Note: this is not the same as your MyFAU or Blackboard accounts (although you can change all the passwords to match). If you haven't already gone through the process of activating your Network Access Account, you can do so by visiting this link: http://www.accounts.fau.edu/ad.htm

How to Connect to the 6th floor WIFI Router


	Anywhere on the HEC 6th floor (including the HEC 613 computer classroom) students with an active Network Access Account can wirelessly connect to the FAU network and to the internet with an IEEE 802.11b compatible laptop or PDA. For more information, view this page: http://wise.fau.edu/irm/wireless/secure_wireless.php

Where to Scan and Print Large Documents

FAU students and faculty can scan up to 11x17" maps and documents free of charge using the HEC 611 computer lab's Epson 1640XL scanner.

Also in HEC 611 is a professional HP5500 42" plotter for creating poster size images. Using your owl card, printing costs begin at only $5 for a 2x3 foot poster on satin finished paper.
