The username is `pi` and the password is the +standard admin password beginning with r. The only reason to log into +them is to reboot them, e.g. if there are new pages to display. +Log in with ssh and type `reboot`. This will prompt you for the +password again. + +###Powering On and Off### + +Switch the IC display off when leaving on a Friday night and +back on again on a Monday morning. +The control button is on the bottom right of the TV. For more +complex control requirements there's a remote control in Martins's office. + -- cgit v1.2.3
