===Hardware===
Without explicit authorization by the TSG, (re)moving hardware (computers, keyboards, mice, chairs, button boxes, electro-caps, etc.) is strictly prohibited! In case you want to change the technical setup in a lab, you have to discuss this in advance with the [[Lab Coordinator]] or a member of the TSG. The last registered user will be held responsible. After conducting an experiment, the lab should be restored in its original state.

Do not change any of the software settings installed on the computers. Do not install any programs unless explicitly authorized by the TSG.
Do not change any of the software settings installed on the [[Lab Computer]]s. Do not install any programs unless explicitly authorized by the TSG.
Software updates are performed on all lab computers simultaneously.
Software updates are performed on all lab computers simultaneously.
Your experiment scripts should be stored on ''data drive'' (D:\).
Never run your scripts from a USB drive or network drive, as this can heavily impact performance.
===Network connection===
==Data==
Always save experiment scripts and data on the ''data drive'' (D:\)!
The C:\ drive will be '''wiped''' with every round of periodic maintenance. This can include the desktop and user folders.
Back up your data to a workgroup drive at the end of each day you're running the experiment. You can use Ruconnect for this (icon on desktop)
Never save your data to a network drive directly, as this can impact performance.
