Stations are computers added to the system, which are identified by their IP addresses. These computers can be used as workstations to fill out data-entry or display information for a specific Activity.

By default, LearningSpace identifies devices—computers or tablets used as stations—by their IP addresses.

Excerpt
Warning
titleWarning

In an environment e.g., with no static IP reservation, the IPs of devices can change. Meanwhile, the IP addresses of devices featured on the Stations tab are not dynamically updated, which means you would have to add each computer or tablet again to the system—as shown below on this page. 


Tip
titleCookie-Based Station Authorization

In case the IP addresses of your devices are not static,  select "Enable cookie-based station authorization" on the General tab in System Manager. This way the system will identify stations by placing a software "cookie" into the browser instead of checking the IP addresses of the devices.

Station types

You can choose between three kinds of station settings:

  1. Hallway Station: A computer located outside but near the simulation room; for learners to submit their checklists. (warning) Automatic user-forwarding does not work with In-room configuration for learners.
  2. In-room Station: A computer located inside the simulation room; for SPs to submit their checklists. (warning) Automatic user-forwarding does not work with Hallway configuration for SPs.

  3. Additional Station: A computer to

    • display the door note of the Activity (if assigned to a room) 

    • store the data logs of third-party simulators (log-upload station) - to enable finding recordings based on room assigned (if assigned to a room)

    • display "Today's Activities" (if not assigned to a room)


(warning) Automatic user-forwarding is not available on Additional Stations. This station type is for display purposes only.
