# ◾ RNSA - How to Reserve a Room Without Scheduling :::info What does RNSA mean? **RNSA** stands for **Running Non-Scheduled Activity**. ::: ## Why use the RNSA setup? With the **RNSA** setup, recording can be **entirely manual (**[**from SRV**](/doc/single-room-view-PjnKvAlGex) **or** [**CO**]()**)** or [**controlled by**]() **user actions** on the [**workstations**](/doc/41653bdd-166c-42c5-afd5-4da9c4cc5603) assigned to the Activity.  :bulb: Any running Activity can be assigned to a room in the [**Rooms**](/doc/rooms-tab-ps5MTFHIAS) tab in the [**System**](/doc/system-manager-ar9EDnlVcL).  You can specify the [Case](/doc/case-manager-QdAIr4bLwJ) immediately, but it is **not** necessary; you can address it later. :::tip 1. If you **do not want your learners to rotate** on a strict **schedule,** use the **RNSA** setup. Plan ahead and **reserve a room** for your chosen Activity. 2. If you would like to **hide camera views from your** [**Faculty **](/doc/privileges-wnjrx8qPWS)members, the best solution is to **use RNSA** in all the Rooms where you **do __not__ want them to access live view** (camera stream)**.** To do this, the selected Faculty members **should __not__ be members** of the Running Non-Scheduled Activity’s [**Faculty group**](/doc/groups-users-Opbhlc7dMF)**.** ![Adding Running Non-scheduled Activity to a Room](https://outline-production-attachments.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/uploads/03fa1014-cf0e-4191-ba80-50d24eef65d4/df5e01b7-1468-4c79-95bb-15dcff270478/rnsa.png?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIA4EOUDTOVUICLPZ4P%2F20260909%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20260909T120000Z&X-Amz-Expires=86400&X-Amz-Signature=f23a155ffaeadbaef55e1395a84e7b1482c1a12e70254e2951a6bd8e4f2fbb18&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&x-amz-checksum-mode=ENABLED&x-id=GetObject " =642x247") ::: ## How to set a **Running Non-Scheduled Activity** in a room? 1.

This means that recording will start and stop in a room according to the schedule - if one is present in that room simultaneously with the RNSA - and RNSA settings will be ignored by the system at that time. ::: By setting up an **RNSA** in a room, you can continue setting up [**manually authorized workstations**](/doc/advanced-scheduling-6uw4GlWcNY) for the Activity. :::tip Find out more about **logging your users** into the system using **manually authorized workstations** [**here**](/doc/41653bdd-166c-42c5-afd5-4da9c4cc5603). ::: :::info Related pages * [Activity Manager](/doc/activity-manager-8Z2fsIu6LP) * [How to Set Up Automatic User-Forwarding to Data Entry](/doc/how-to-set-up-automatic-user-forwarding-to-data-entry-VU5vVTY5HD) * [How to Set up RNSA Login](/doc/how-to-set-up-rnsa-login-TshVemp6wp) * [How to Set Up User-Action-Controlled Video Recording](/doc/how-to-set-up-user-action-controlled-video-recording-jymJBufKpG) ::: :::tip For further information, visit our [Activity Manager](/doc/activity-manager-8Z2fsIu6LP), [Activity - How to](/doc/activity-how-to-bW0Hc4uOea) pages, and view our [Activity Manager Training Videos](/doc/activity-manager-training-videos-v7AzArcYms). ::: --- **Documents** - [User Guide](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/user-guide-WPv4VxhtWB) - [FAQ](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/faq-YoxOQOjvnY) - [Training Videos](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/training-videos-D2ycsEwqPt) - [Module Introduction Videos](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/module-introduction-videos-I6OQ6H7SUT) - [Release Notes](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/release-notes-BcFFMsc0RV) - [Distance Learning with LearningSpace](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/distance-learning-with-learningspace-eAfwW23Hxg) - [Preventing Copy-Paste in LearningSpace](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/preventing-copy-paste-in-learningspace-sPD0IIUuk0) - [Important Technical Notification Regarding Adobe Flash Player](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/important-technical-notification-regarding-adobe-flash-player-eQtMLwLmTJ) - [iPad support - Technical information](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/ipad-support-technical-information-dLmeFvKofC) - [TeamViewer Link](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/teamviewer-link-QyKZBMqUT9) - [YouTube videos about LearningSpace](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/youtube-videos-about-learningspace-TMb3zdc0LC) - [Customer Aftercare One-Pager](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/customer-aftercare-one-pager-GBWMe1BcfS) - [Case Studies](https://kb.learningspace.elevatehealth.net/s/ent-hs/doc/case-studies-VcAbFqXSz7)
