If you either cannot connect to the Cornell VPN or must use a mobile device, you should use the many web-based options for accessing Coral.
SeaBird
SeaBird is a mobile and tablet-friendly web-based version of Coral. SeaBird is specifically designed for users on slow (dialup) connections, behind firewalls, or unable to install Java.
With SeaBird, users can view, make, and delete tool reservations. Users can also see if a tool is in use, yellow lighted, or red lighted. For yellow lighted tools, the reported problems are in the tool's reservation detail view.
SeaBird is accessible at http://seabird.cnfusers.cornell.edu .
XReporter
XReporter is the web-based reports module for Coral. If the information is in Coral, then there is most likely a report showing that information.
A few of the useful reports are:
- Reservation Report - View tool reservations for a particular time window
- My Reservations - View my (your) tool reservations for a particular time window
- Equipment Problems and Shutdowns - View details on yellow and red lighted tools
- My Accounting Detail - View my tool usage history (and associated charges)
XReporter is accessible at http://xreporter.cnfusers.cornell.edu .
