CWIN2K1001 Network Operating Systems for Honeywell Automation Systems (NT and Novel Platforms) Class Type Engineering System XL5000 Duration 10 Days Class Audience Honeywell Systems Engineers, Programmers, Electricians, electronic systems specialists, and maintenance persons responsible for electrical/electronic installation/maintenance of XL5000/XBS-i systems or subsystems at customer sites, Honeywell Authorized System Distributor Installation Personnel, and Honeywell Systems Technicians for XBS or other systems and Programmers/analysts familiar with PC Hardware and Application programs, and some version of Windows.
Offered At Customer site or St Paul # of Students Minimum 4, Maximum 8 Cost $4577 per person at site, $4117 per person St Paul Pre-requisites Familiarity with PC Hardware/DOS/Some Version of windows and Nodding acquaintance with Honeywell Network Automation Systems such as XBS-i or XBS Systems Remark 1 The
course will run over a 2-week period with at least a one or more week break in
between.
This is to accommodate the
fact that attendees may find it hard to be away from their work for longer than
a one-week period at a time.
Remark 2 The
course is heavily hands on oriented and does not go into any detailed analysis
of abstract networking standards and concepts. But that is covered in the assigned readings handed out in class.
With this reading material and the material
covered in class students will be able to take the MCSE examination and pass it
without much difficulty. Brief Part One This high-powered course is designed basically for engineers installing Honeywell Network Automation Systems of one kind or another. The course immediately provides an elaborate overview of Windows NT workstation and Windows NT Server Systems. This alone clarifies a seemingly large, unknown and supposedly forbidding area of networking. The upshot of the overview is simply to reassure the students that a network is simply a DOS running over more than one PC! That there are similar Network DOS commands and that because of the graphic user interface one does not have to use Network DOS commands but that they are there for use at any time.
The next segment of the class is an elaborate detour into Windows NT installation and configuration. This unavoidably involves a discussion of IRQ’s and IO Port address problems and how to resolve them. This segment also discusses disk partitioning and different types of partitions such as NTFS and FAT partitions. The course also involves discussion of different hardware options for setting up a network. Network interface cards are discussed at length. This segment concludes with the actual configuring of a Windows NT network system. Students perform several labs to work with at least 4 different hardware configurations.
The next segment is quite abstract and involves the actual use of the created network systems in the previous segment. In particular the following items are discussed at length and are supported by actual hands-on lab exercises:
· NT Control Panel and configuring devices such as modems, tape drives, PC cards etc. · File systems: FAT, NTFS, CDFS · Partitions · Recovering from Disk Failure · Emergency disks · Printer Management · Protocols · NT Optimization
The next segment of the class is concerned with Troubleshooting and advanced trouble-shooting topics. At this point system backup and restore procedures are also discussed. End Part One Part Two
The next segment of the class is concerned with the actual configuration and running of application programs over the network. It is at this point that students configure an application to run on the network such as Word or Excel 7. But the emphasis of the class is to configure Honeywell application programs over the network. In this part students get to configure the Honeywell XBS and XBS-I application programs. The class has a full discussion of connectivity between different network systems such as Novel and Windows. Connectivity is a mythical area of the networking business and hence will command a liberal time segment of the class. The class also tests issues that have not been tested by Honeywell engineers or Arlington Heights and other test facilities. Class will have enough equipment to test out any configuration questions not addressed by relevant Honeywell SRB’s. It is
a great feeling of confidence to see a full-blown Honeywell system running
flawlessly on a Windows NT network system with all options implemented! End Part TWO Objectives Upon completion of the course the student will be able to:
· Define all major networking concepts, terms and definitions · Will be able to work with a PC of any description with ease and confidence · Hardwire at least one hardware configuration for Windows NT · Install windows NT Sever and Windows NT Workstation software successfully · Perform all configuration functions available through the Control Panel · Perform all diagnostic and trouble shooting functions · Perform all windows Registry Functions · Install and configure any windows applications for running over the network · Install and configure all XL5000 and XBS-i applications over the network · Perform all maintenance functions such as backup/restore for the Windows NT network system
Topics · Network Concepts and terminology · Network hardware and wiring · Hardware compatibility problems · Network software installation and configuration · Network Systems Operating Procedures · Connectivity as related to Honeywell Automation Systems · Application Programming · Honeywell systems installation and configuration · Network systems trouble shooting · Honeywell systems trouble shooting · Honeywell SRB’s for running Excel 5000 and XBS-i System under Network Operating Systems
