This article is mostly about how you ''use'' the trolley, rather than what goes on inside of it. If you're interested in the tech side instead, have a look at the [[Technical:Tom trolley|Tom trolley]] article in the Technical namespace.

Unfortunately, due to the Panasonic Max being a little less reliable than is ideal, the OB Trolley is now just a trolley in a sad corner of the control room. This article will stay here for the time being, and when the techies have rebuilt it with some of our other equipment, it will be back in business again.


Setting up the trolley requires moderate technical knowledge, though nothing beyond what a competent technical assistant should know already. The most involved part of the setup is likely to be sound, as there is no standard audio configuration (though there are some [[#Common audio configurations|common ones]]). In total setup should not take more than around 90 minutes, depending on the size of the event and number of crew.
