Q: Can I lock an Adeptias desk?
A:
Yes. There are several lockable compartments in the Adeptias desks. On all models, the computer is locked in a separate compartment, not accessible by a user in either the IT or non-IT mode. All of the necessary control functions (power on/off, USB and audio) are accessible to a user via the Control Panel. For The CONCΣPT™, the monitor remains visible at all times but can be moved to the side of the desk when not in use. It is attached to the arm using tamper-resistant fasteners. For The ANSWΣR™, The ANSWΣR™ TΣ and The RΣASON™ desks, the monitor, keyboard and mouse can be stored in a separate compartment which can be locked using a key or by using the wireless remote access system.

Q: How does the remote locking system work?
A:
The optional remote locking system is based on a proprietary pcb with an embedded programmable chip using RF communication. A standard fob is used to transmit the instructions to the desks in the room, with separate controls for the student and teacher desks. The system has two separate fobs one is a "teacher" fob which can: (a) engage / disengage the PC power switch on The CONCΣPT™ desk and (b) engage/disengage the switch which controls access to the monitor, keyboard and mouse on The ANSWΣR™, The ANSWΣR™ TΣ and The RΣASON™ desks. The second is an "administrator" fob, which can override the teacher fob (providing the same functionality) and can remotely boot down all of the PC in a given room. Generally a separate teacher fob is programmed per room with the administrator fob handing up to eight rooms.

Q: How does the remote PC power off system work?
A:
The Administrator fob has the ability to control the power switch of the PC. By pressing the button on the fob, all computers programmed to the fob will properly boot down. This functionality is only available for turning off the computers as most electrical systems could not take the surge of a entire room of computer turning on at the same time.
