Audio/Visual Technology Support

Audio/Visual (AV) Technology Support is responsible for the support and maintenance of  the smart classrooms in all academic buildings around the campus. Classroom Support hours are 8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. For evening classes beginning at 7:00 p.m., it is recommended that all equipment be checked prior to the start of class. For technical issue with the equipment in a classroom while teaching, please call ext. 2277 from the classroom phone for immediate assistance.

Smart Classroom Key

To obtain smart classroom keys for SGMH classrooms, RGC-13, KHS-104, and KHS-108, please bring a photo ID to the Academic Technology Center (ATC) in the Faculty Commons (PLS-237). Classrooms with upgraded technology should have a one-sheet Quick Reference Guide available on the lectern.

To replace a missing key, the instructor must file a lost key report with University Police and pay the fine for the missing key. The instructor can then bring copies of these documents to the ATC to obtain replacement keys.

Smart Classroom Pen

Faculty members who are assigned to teach in the academic classrooms that have Epson BrightLink Projectors will be contacted for optional smart pen training held in the ATC (PLS-237). Once trained, faculty members can check out a smart pen that will allow them to use the integrated white board technology in those rooms. Faculty members will be able to check out a pen each semester they are assigned to teach in a classroom that has the interactive white board.

Assistance with Technology Needs

The main point of contact for computing support via e-mail or phone is the IT Help Desk. The IT Help Desk provides a great deal of support to help faculty members with software, hardware, and network-based questions. The IT Help Desk can be reached at ext. 7777 or helpdesk@fullerton.edu during the hours of 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Help with Campus Mobile Devices

Faculty members may walk into the Academic Technology Center (ATC) (PLS-237) for support with any campus issued mobile equipment. This includes repairs and troubleshooting any issue a user may be facing. New campus issued devices can be picked up at the ATC. The client will be notified when the equipment is ready for pick-up. Additionally, the ATC collects equipment from faculty members who are upgrading to a new device or otherwise permanently returning state equipment assigned to them for their use. Personal mobile equipment can be brought into the center if the faculty members need assistance setting up Wi-Fi or email. No maintenance service will be rendered for personal equipment.

Faculty/Staff IT Help Desk
