Overview of the GreenSkills Hub
The GreenSkills Hub is a state of the art green skills living laboratory that has recently
been completed at TAFE NSW – Western Sydney Institute, Nirimba College. The
laboratory models sustainable practices and delivers a range of green skills sets and
qualifications. This enables innovative, multidiscipline, inter-related training across a
range of areas including Building Trades, Electrical Trades, Electrical Engineering,
Environmental Studies, Horticulture, Information Technology, Plumbing, Refrigeration
and Information Technology. This approach allows the sharing of ideas, resources and
interdependent practices.
The facility includes a community centre which provides opportunities for the public to
view, interact with and monitor the impact of green technologies. The area is also
used by our industry partners to run seminars and display new technologies, including
renewable energy, heating, cooling and water recycling

Troubleshooting
Below is a guide of the most common problems you may
encounter in using the system:
PROMBLEM
POTENTIAL SOLUTION
The touch panel is blanked
out
Ensure the touch panel is not in screen saver mode.
Touch the touch panel and see if it turns on.
Ensure the green power connector has not been pulled
out from the back of the touch panel. If it has, push the
power connector firmly into the back of the touch panel.
For the wireless touch panels, ensure that the panel
batteries are not flat. If they are, replace the panel into
its docking station for the batteries to charge.
The touch panel does not
respond to user pushes.
Ensure the touch panel’s data connection is not loose.
For the 7” panel, check that the network cable
connecting to the back of the touch panel has not been
pulled out accidentally.
Ensure the AMX NetLinx controller is online. Check the
status lights on the front of the box labelled “AMX NI
Integrated Controller”. If you do not see any lights at
the front, the AMX NetLinx power has been
disconnected. Call KLM Care to diagnose the power
fault.
The touch panel may have crashed. For the 7” panel,
reset the touch panel by disconnecting and
reconnecting the touch panel power connector, at the
back of the panel. For the wireless touch panels, pull
out both its batteries (located in the slots at the back of
the panel) and replace them after leaving them out for
10 seconds.
In Presentation mode, the
projectors do not show an
image.
Ensure the projector(s) are not muted. Press the
Advanced Controls - Projector button and check the
mute status of the projector(s)
Ensure that an image source has been sent to the
projectors. For a Laptop presentation, note that simply
selecting the Laptop button is not enough – ensure that
a Laptop location is selected within the Laptop page.
For Laptop presentations, ensure that the Laptop image
is configured for outputting to an external monitor. This
is done by pressing Fn-F4, Fn-F7 or Fn-F8, depending
on the laptop model.
Check the audiovisual rack located within the operations
booth, and see If there are any devices within it which
appear not to be powered. If there is, contact KLM
CARE.

In Presentation mode, no
audio can be heard.
For Laptop presentations, ensure that the Laptop audio
cable is firmly plugged in on both the Laptop end and
the floor box end, and is not muted.
Ensure that the audio is not muted on the touch panel.
Ensure that the selected presentation source has audio.
Camera sources, for example, have no corresponding
audio.
Upon initiating a video
conference, I cannot speak
to the far end via the
booth microphone.
By default, the video conference system is set to ‘live’
mode, which disables the booth microphone from being
sent to the far end.
The microphone level is
too soft.
Ensure that the microphone is close enough to your
mouth. Also note that your levels may be louder than
you perceive it to be – microphone levels are adjusted
for clarify of hearing throughout the room, not for
excessive amplification.
The touch panel appears
not to be responsive, or is
misplacing ‘pushes’ –
pushing one button
appears to select an
adjacent button.
For the wireless 8.4” panels, use the stylus located on
the left side of the panel for more accurate pushes.
Check that the MIC MUTE button is not enabled.
The panel may be out of calibration. Recalibrate the
panel. For the 7” panel, press and hold onto the oval
button beneath the touch screen area for about 10
seconds (continue holding it down when the Setup page
appears), then follow the instructions onscreen. For the
wireless 8.4” panel, simultaneously press and hold
down for 10 seconds the bottom-most button to the left
of the touch screen, and the down arrow on the 4-way
controller to the right of the touch screen, then follow
the onscreen instructions.
