Management and Technical Training
During our research on wireless technology for industrial applications we were confronted by a lack of confidence as well as a gap in the knowledge of this technology. Especially on the subject of wireless Sensor (& Actuators) networks we were confronted with lot of opinions without real technical background to support them. That’s why we have developed 2 training programs:
Management Training
The purpose of this training is to inform employees on a management level, without going into technical details, about the challenges and the risks, but also the opportunities of the wireless technology. After this training the manager should be able to speak, validate and make decisions based on facts and not based on emotions and rumours. You will understand the professional vocabulary of the engineers. You will be able to ask the right questions, to evaluate the risks and te be in control of the decisions and the project. The following topics will be handled:
- Network security
- Network reliability
- Risks
- Advantages and disadvantages
- Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
- hardware, software and system selection
Technical Training (2 days)
The technical training dives deeper into the technical aspects of the implementation and maintenance of a wireless network. Besides the topics of the management training, the following topics will be handled during the training:
- Detection of rogue devices
- Managing of the radio spectrum with the right tools and knowledge
- Preventing problems by preventive maintenance
- Implementing and maintaining a wireless network, including settings of routers, access points, firewalls en authentication server
- Setting up rules in case of corrective maintenance.
- OSI-model van ISO
- Encryption setting.
- Power saving settings of battery powers field equipment
It is a basic wireless network training which covers several technical aspects using wireless technology in an industrial environment. The training is intended for engineers with network, electronics or system maintenance background and a middle-plus or university education.
