Brief                      The basic objective of the course is to prepare the student for configuring the legacy systems into the XBS System  by using the provided subsystem interfaces. In particular, the class concentrates on configuring the following subsystems in the XBS System:

                        1.    The XL Plus subsystem

                        2.    The FS90 Subsystem

                        3.    The XL Classic subsystem

                        4.    The Modem Remote systems/sites Configuration

                        For each subsystem students are given an actual legacy system or system database. The students then use this subsystem or the database to configure a fully functional XBS Front-end, which communicates with the legacy systems in the expected manner.  This process is done one system at a time with the front-end becoming more complex at each stage. At the completion of each stage, each of the earlier successfully configured subsystems must stay functional.

                        After configuration of the relevant subsystems the students test the configured systems in the XBS system in a Windows NT 4.00 network environment. To this end, the class discusses thoroughly the operating procedures for each configured subsystem interface.

                        Limitations of this interface process are also discussed and problems and workarounds are explained.

                        The class also discusses the system tools and parts used to configure all of the relevant system interfaces. It would be helpful to bring a notebook computer to the class.

                        Written exercises are used to reinforce the learning process.

Objectives             Upon completion of the course the student will be able to:

·         Describe the hardware components of the XBS Central System 

·         Describe the hardware components of each of the subsystem 

·         Operate a fully networked XBS system with all subsystems fully operational 

·         Trouble shoot a fully networked XBS System with Subsystems

·         Perform all required database conversions necessary for the XBS front-end

·         Exhibit a knowledge of all basic operating procedures for each of the configured subsystems

·         Perform all controller Load/Dump system backup/restore procedures

·         Create and interpret all required documentation

Topics                   

·         System Hardware/Software Overview

·         Nature and significance of all databases

·         Conversion Tools and the conversion processes for each database

·         Configured systems startup and checkout/test

·         Configured systems Operating Procedures

·         System Documentation Interpretation
