LAB 2 - NVR
Lab Rules:
 Please mute yourself if you are not actively speaking. If the background noise is too loud I will be
forced to mute you and you will not be able to unmute yourself to ask questions. If you find
yourself in this situation, you may text me at 847-812-2244, reach out through the WebEx chat
window, or select the floatation device from the lab interface.
 Use only the assigned Recorders and cameras even though other devices may appear in your
SADP tool.

not corrected before moving on to the next steps.
