'''Right now the Uni POS is not set up for research, there are no research slots available. That means there is no way to conduct research with the Uni POS. Updates to the status of the POS will be posted here as well as sent by corp/alliance mail.'''

== Rally Point ==

EVE University members could use the POS to rally fleets or conduct other EVE University operations. Only people in the [[Ivy League Alliance]] were able to enter the shield.
  
'''NOTE: Due to Game Mechanics copy slots are not available. Only RESEARCH!'''

== Defense ==
  
So you've got your blueprint original and you want to research it. How is this done with the Uni research labs? This guide is for you!
+
EVE University members could use the POS as a safe location to evade [[War Targets]].
  
 +
The POS would automatically lock and fire on anyone who is a War Target. However, protection was not instantaneous, as the guns and POS modules require a long time to lock up targets, especially small ones.
  
FIRST, before you drop a BPO in the "Industry" Hangar, make sure there is an open slot. Any loose BPO's scattered on the floor are grabbed by the research staff and placed in a safe spot. Contact the [[Eve_University_Management#Research_Manager|Research Manager]] to get them back.
+
Members could not be harmed as long as they stayed within the POS shields. But neither could they lock nor otherwise engage anything else. There was also a risk of inadvertently bumping other members out of the safety of the POS shield, so members were advised not to move while they were in the POS shield.
  
E-Uni has its own POS right here in scenic Aldrat, and while most of you will have only encountered it during fleet ops as a staging area, its there to give students access to the world of research and production.
+
== Reprocessing Array ==
  
That said, this guide isn't about research or production, its about getting your BPO into the lab and researching it to improve its effciency.
+
Harmonia had a Reprocessing and Compression Array available to EVE University students.  
  
 +
Because there was only a single storage space for ores/minerals, only one member was able to use the array at a time to prevent ores/minerals becoming mixed.  It was therefore considered polite to keep your distance if someone else was currently using the array. Theft of others' items during POS array use was considered corp theft and thus punishable as such.
  
== Step 1: Check if you're eligible for POS access ==
+
== POS Research ==
  
To have access to the POS you must either have the [Θ] Theta or Sophomore [[titles]].
+
Harmonia originally had a POS research program, but this was cancelled after the Crius expansion changed the way POS research laboratories were used and allowed public research. Instead, several [[Campuses|EVE University campuses]] set up their own research programs.
  
[[File:PosResearch1.jpg]]
+
== Other Modules ==
  
You also MUST have the Scientific Networking skill trained to at least level 1. Because the POS is in our sister R&D corp, just flying to the POS is not an option.
+
Harmonia also had other modules, such as the Corporate Hangar Array, which were used by the [[Logistics Division]] and could not be used by general members.
 
 
 
 
The cost is currently 8,000 ISK per hour with no install cost. However, please
 
 
 
'''- do not use more than 4 slots for material research including pending jobs'''
 
 
 
'''- you can use as many time efficiency research slots as you want''' (I will try this. If all slots are full all the time I will restrict it again)
 
 
 
'''- limit each research job to no more than 14 days''' (If you have a BPO that needs more than 14 days to achieve one research level, ask the [[Eve_University_Management#Research_Manager|Research Manager]] for permission)
 
 
 
== Step 2: Installing BPO to research wallet ==
 
 
 
Be docked at HQ (Aldrat, Pator Tech School) the first thing you need to do is:
 
 
 
Open the wallet, click on CORPORATION WALLET and change the selected/active wallet to the Ivy League Research Division wallet.  It's important to do this first, as when you pay for your R&D job, the money will come from whichever wallet is active:
 
 
 
If you have access to multiple corp wallets, you have to change the division to Ivy League Research Division first.
 
 
 
[[File:PosResearch2.jpg]]
 
 
 
Please check if you can place an additional research job. This depends on two skills wich are:
 
* Laboratory Operation
 
* Advanced Laboratory Operation ''(prerequisite: Laboratory Operation V)''
 
 
 
Each level grants 1 extra research job and without skills you can place 1 research job.
 
So at Laboratory Operation IV you can have 5 active jobs.
 
 
 
'''Please note that research jobs with a "Ready" state are also counted as an active job'''
 
 
 
After you have checked that you can install an additional research job, you can drop the blueprint in the INDUSTRY hangar.
 
 
 
[[File:PosResearch3.jpg]]
 
 
 
Once in there you want to right click on the BPO and select the type of research you require.
 
 
 
[[File:PosResearch4.jpg]]
 
 
 
Material Research (ML) – The higher the level the less minerals used.
 
Time Efficiency Research (PL) – The higher the level the faster it builds.
 
 
 
== Step 3: Setting research parameters ==
 
 
 
You have chosen Material Research. A new window has appeared giving you some options. The ones to note are Installation and Runs.
 
 
 
[[File:PosResearch5.jpg]]
 
 
 
If you want your BPO to have an ML of 100 then you enter 100 for the number of Runs. If you are researching a previously researched BPO the value you enter here will be added to the ML level already held. Example: the BPO has already been reserched to a ML of 20. If you now research it to 100, when it is done it will be ML 120.
 
 
 
Installation allows you to chose the POS slot you wish to use. Click on PICK INSTALLATION. In the new window you'll need to have RANGE set to Current Solar System and TYPE to Alliance to get the lab listing. Using the Activity box to select only the type you are interested in.
 
 
 
[[File:PosResearch6.jpg]]
 
 
 
== Step 4: Slot selection ==
 
 
 
If you have properly set up your filters you will see something similiar to this:
 
 
 
[[File:PosResearch7.jpg]]
 
 
 
Clicking on a lab in the top portion of the window will present you with that labs slots, based on your filter criteria, in the window below. Go through the list and find an available slot (reflected by the green word NOW in the Next Free Time column), or should the labs all be busy, locate one with the least time left to run on its current job and you can que a job up in that slot. Once selected click on the Use Assemblyline button to return to initial install window at the start of Step 3. Ensure you've correctly entered the ML or PL you want in the Runs field. You can safely ignore the input/output field in the window.
 
 
 
'''Note: Once a job is started, cancelling it will not free up the slot and will not refund any isk.'''
 
 
 
When you're happy with your selection you can click on ok and move to the confirmation window.
 
 
 
 
 
== Step 5: Ensuring accuracy ==
 
 
 
This is the last chance to check you've entered everything correctly and to see the fee for your requested research. This will also tell you how long the research will take.
 
 
 
[[File:PosResearch8.jpg]]
 
 
 
Its important you make a note of the total cost since you will need to deposit that exact amount into the Research wallet in Step 7.
 
 
 
== Step 6: Viewing the job as entered ==
 
 
 
The BPO is now researching. Any time after that, from any location in the universe, you can check up on the status of the job.
 
 
 
Click on the science and industry button and be presented with a listing of current jobs, install dates and end dates. Be certain to change if you are not in Aldrat. I always use Current Universe RANGE option to view the list as that covers all of Eve.
 
 
 
[[File:PosResearch9.jpg]]
 
 
 
As with the slot filters, you need to make sure you have the correct search criteria. In this case, assuming you're in Aldrat, you'd have it as shown above. The last column on right lists end date. It is important that you always use the MY CORPORATION setting to view this list. All jobs are ran on behalf on Uni. If you select the ME option, nothing will show.
 
 
 
 
 
== Step 7: Re-imbursing Uni the research fee ==
 
 
 
All initial costs are deducted from the Uni Research wallet. You now need to transfer isk from your personal wallet into the Research wallet.
 
 
 
[[File:PosResearch10.jpg]]
 
 
 
If you've managed to deal with the myriad of windows and initiate a reseach job, I'm sure you can operate the wallet. However be sure to :
 
 
 
* Select the IVY League research wallet
 
 
 
If you have access to multiple corp wallets, you have to set the change the division to Ivy Leage Research Division first.
 
 
 
[[File:PosResearch2.jpg]]  
 
 
 
* Pay the correct amount (As noted in Step 5)
 
* Use the button "give money" to transfer the money. The "transfer money" button is not suitable.
 
* Enter a short text to describe why you are transferring isk. Example: Flameburst research
 
 
 
'''If you fail to do this it will be noticed and you may lose your access to the research slots.'''
 
 
 
== Step 8: Having BPO returned when research is complete ==
 
 
 
Do not, under any circumstance (only exception below) attempt to deliver the job yourself. The "Industry" hangar access is one way. You may drop blueprints in but you will not be able to take them out of the "Industry" Hangar and you will break the custody tracking chain.
 
The only time you can deliver the research job yourself is when you want to re-research the same blueprint immediately.
 
 
 
'''Completed research jobs will be delivered to your hangar. Research staff check jobs for completion multiple times a day.'''

E-UNI Emblem.png This page's intent is to provide information on the the history of EVE University. The information on this page is no longer current.

Harmonia was EVE University's POS (Player-Owned Starbase), originally in Aldrat and later in Slays. When engineering complexes were introduced to the game it was replaced by Adrestia. It served three functions:

  • A rally point for other local operations (fleets, roams, mining activities, etc.)
  • A defense / safe spot
  • A place for reprocessing or compressing ore

Rally Point

EVE University members could use the POS to rally fleets or conduct other EVE University operations. Only people in the Ivy League Alliance were able to enter the shield.

Defense

EVE University members could use the POS as a safe location to evade War Targets.

The POS would automatically lock and fire on anyone who is a War Target. However, protection was not instantaneous, as the guns and POS modules require a long time to lock up targets, especially small ones.

Members could not be harmed as long as they stayed within the POS shields. But neither could they lock nor otherwise engage anything else. There was also a risk of inadvertently bumping other members out of the safety of the POS shield, so members were advised not to move while they were in the POS shield.

Reprocessing Array

Harmonia had a Reprocessing and Compression Array available to EVE University students.

Because there was only a single storage space for ores/minerals, only one member was able to use the array at a time to prevent ores/minerals becoming mixed. It was therefore considered polite to keep your distance if someone else was currently using the array. Theft of others' items during POS array use was considered corp theft and thus punishable as such.

POS Research

Harmonia originally had a POS research program, but this was cancelled after the Crius expansion changed the way POS research laboratories were used and allowed public research. Instead, several EVE University campuses set up their own research programs.

Other Modules

Harmonia also had other modules, such as the Corporate Hangar Array, which were used by the Logistics Division and could not be used by general members.
