Fault find and repair simulator motion and control loading systems
Assessment tool
Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024
This unit describes the knowledge and skills required to conduct fault finding and repairs to the simulator motion and control loading systems. This includes analysing fault reports, identifying and rectifying faults, conducting functional tests and the documentation and certification processes. In the context of this unit, simulators are used to replicate land, air, sea and undersea systems to facilitate training and development. Simulator motion system are mechanical/electric and/or mechanical/hydraulic.
Simulator control loading systems includeelectric and hydraulic.
This unit was developed in a Defence environment but may be relevant to others who work in this field. This unit applies to those working in fault finding and repairing simulator motion and/or control loading systems and was developed for technicians who work in this field.
The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to, particularly those relating to WHS, fault finding and repairing the simulator motion and/or control loading systems.
Those undertaking this unit would work independently, or as part of a team, with minimal supervision, while performing complex tasks, including complex problem solving, in a limited range of contexts. They would use discretion and judgement and take responsibility for the quality of their outputs.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
