Software Configuration<br />
and Maintenance<br />
TXP-HW/SW<br />
3 weeks - price upon request<br />
Maximum of 10 students<br />
This course is usually scheduled on site.<br />
Prerequisites<br />
Electrical engineer, electronics<br />
technician, or competent individual<br />
with electronics background.<br />
Description<br />
This course will teach the<br />
participants the functions of an<br />
operating and monitoring system<br />
and how to operate it as a human<br />
machine interface (HMI). It will<br />
cover all tasks associated with<br />
process management and information.<br />
It will begin by covering<br />
the theory and operation of TXP<br />
hardware components and how<br />
they interact. Students will learn<br />
a practical approach to diagnosing<br />
and isolating faults to the card<br />
level using the various TXP<br />
tools, and will be required to<br />
troubleshoot actual hardware and<br />
software problems. Instruction on<br />
standard TXP hardware platforms<br />
will include hands-on labs covering<br />
their configuring and testing.<br />
This course will also emphasize<br />
the tasks performed by most<br />
instrument or computer technicians<br />
to isolate software problems<br />
and make system changes. This<br />
course will describe the general<br />
use and functions of the various<br />
components in the TXP system.<br />
Emphasis will be placed on the<br />
Engineering Station for the<br />
modification of logic diagrams,<br />
graphics for analog, and digital<br />
control. This course is based on<br />
TXP version 7 level software and<br />
hardware.<br />
Objectives<br />
Upon successful completion of this course, the student<br />
has been trained to:<br />
• Explain the operation of the TXP plant bus and<br />
terminal bus<br />
• Isolate card failures and configure a replacement<br />
card<br />
• Make all necessary settings to standard<br />
communications cards<br />
• Perform required preventive maintenance<br />
• Distinguish between hardware and software<br />
problems<br />
• Troubleshoot a TXP system using a logical approach<br />
• Create logic diagrams for an actual process model<br />
• Create graphics for same process model<br />
• Modify logic diagrams<br />
• Modify graphics<br />
• Compile and download configured software<br />
