LabRunr Instructions
Description
LabRunr is a utility / web server / database manager used for the scheduling and billing of KNI tools and lab use time. It consists of two main components:
- The web-facing user interface, where users can make and cancel reservations, check the live view of the lab, check the daily view of the lab, and other functions.
- Lab-facing interface (officially called InLabRunr), in which users access touchscreen computers inside the cleanroom to make and cancel reservations, start and stop equipment logins, and see the status of the equipment. It is a means to allow the KNI administration to track when and by whom the equipment is being used.
Web-facing user interface
LabRunr allows KNI members to schedule and reserve equipment inside the lab and remotely with a web interface.

Lab-facing interface also called InLabRunr
InLabRunr accurately documents lab and tool use time for administration accounting.
