Implement vision system designs


Application

This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to manage the installation and set-up of equipment required to realise designs for vision systems used on either a temporary or permanent basis in the screen, media, entertainment and events industries.

Individuals who apply these skills are expected to display a high level of initiative, judgement and responsibility as they supervise the installation and operation of vision systems.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.


Elements and Performance Criteria

4.7 Ensure that organisational health and safety procedures are followed at all times

4.8 Contribute to evaluations of projects and implement recommendations aimed at improving overall effectiveness of vision system services

Evidence of Performance

Evidence of the ability to:

interpret vision system designs and develop workable plans for the installation of equipment and accessories to meet requirements

supervise the installation and operation of vision system equipment for at least one client, production or event

work collaboratively.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided for each of the above points at least once.


Evidence of Knowledge

To complete the unit requirements the individual must:

explain factors that need to be considered depending on whether vision systems are being installed on a temporary or permanent basis

explain issues that need to be considered when implementing automated and interactive vision systems and those with multiple input sources and output and display devices

explain technical requirements and constraints associated with installing and operating a range of vision systems

describe costing and budget issues associated with implementing vision system designs

describe typical formats for documenting vision system installation plans

describe processes and procedures typically used to ensure version control for draft and final plans

explain work health and safety issues to be considered when installing and operating vision systems.


Assessment Conditions

Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in creative arts industry environments. The assessment environment must include access to:

• appropriate practice and performance space

• resources and equipment used to develop basic acting skills.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
