UTS FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SAFETY … • Lab rules are for safety • Lab rules are enforced • Work individually, but in groups of two or three (buddy system) 8
9 UTS FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY Lab safety rules • Wear covered footwear • No eating or drinking • Do not sit on the benches • Bags must be placed in the bag racks • No equipment can be used without permission from a supervisor • No-one may enter or leave the laboratory without permission from a supervisor • If any accident occurs, it must be reported immediately to a supervisor For this activity … • Listen carefully and follow all instructions when we are in the laboratory • PCBs are only placed on the hot plate by a supervisor • Take care when using soldering irons – ask a supervisor for help if you are unsure • The computer used to program the device can only be used by a supervisor
UTS FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY Now let’s have some fun! Let’s go to CB 11. 403 (Junior Circuits Lab) 10
