Condition Monitoring - System 1®

Maximizing the Benefit of System 1 Software

This instructor-led course teaches students to use the System 1 software in a variety of practical daily use situations. Workshops demonstrate how the platform can be used efficiently to minimize time spent looking at non-significant data, and to focus on the information that is needed to make good management decisions. The course can be tailored to specific asset types: hydro, wind, reciprocating compressors, motors, turbines, compressors and other machinery.

Course Objectives

Upon completion of the course, students will be able to:

Use various System 1 software tools and plots to detect subtle changes in asset condition.
Retrieve and display data in bar graphs and various plot formats.
View alarms and events in the event manager.
Enter observations and notes with the journal editor.
Use DOCUVIEW* to create links to various reference documents.
Create reports on monitored plant assets.
Gain a practical understanding of how our communication processors such as TDI or TDXnet™ collect transient data.
