CLASS/SERVICE TYPE

Introduction           

For site classes the on-site equipment will be used to train operators on their own actual configuration (implemented by Honeywell engineers and technicians) rather than an idealized/simplified Lab configuration.  

For Minneapolis/St Paul basic operation classes demonstration systems and simulation programs will be used with detailed worksheets. 

A basic description of each class type is given below.  Please call if you need to find out more about the format of the class you are interested in. 

1. Basic Operation  

Basic classes cover typical operating procedures for a control processor of one kind or another.  Most basic operation classes cover Honeywell diagnostics and test and checkout procedures Plus many others developed by C.I.T.S technicians, engineers and programmers. 

2. Installation  

These classes are designed for electric/electronic trades persons who are typically responsible for installing/servicing or repairing electrical/electronic equipment.  Typically these classes involve working with low voltages.  It would be helpful to have some facility with ordinary hand and power tools, some familiarity with techniques for pulling wires and some ability to read simple wire diagrams. 

3. Data Entry  

Basic Operation classes are generally a requirement for these classes.  These classes involve changing the characteristics of the Honeywell installed system at a site but do not involve knowledge of one of the Honeywell programming languages. 

4. Programming  

Data Entry classes are generally prerequisites for these classes.  These classes usually involve one or more of the many Honeywell programming languages or programming sequences.  These classes are at an abstract but beginning level.  Their counterparts, the advanced programming classes involve the study of the advanced preprogrammed modules sold by Honeywell and encapsulated in their Engineering Data books.  Please confer with a training specialist before registering for an advanced programming class.  

5.    Engineering/Service  

These classes are designed for Honeywell or end-user technician.  No strict prerequisites are involved but these classes assume that a basic operating knowledge of the relevant system has been obtained or learned on the job by the student.  A pretest will be sent to each student and its satisfactory completion is required.  The pretest assumes no knowledge of any of the Honeywell systems.  The pretest is designed to identify the capacity for a coherent analytical ability on the part of the student.           

These classes are fast-paced and designed to fulfill the original plan of the Honeywell software engineers, namely program controlled and option-oriented field engineering.  For Honeywell these classes can be extremely cost-effective and for end-user technician these classes will be invaluable for reconfiguring or customizing installed systems to get the most out of their investment.
