Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

MEM23117 - Evaluate microcontroller applications

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Determine scope of evaluation

  1. Confirm and apply safe electrical working practice
  2. Review the currents and voltages present in the microcontroller applications and check for regulatory requirements and dangerous high currents and voltages, including effects on humans and on application equipment and components
  3. Identify work health and safety (WHS) and regulatory requirements, codes of practice, standards, risk management and organisational procedures, including those related to automation safety
  4. Identify software techniques and graphics required for evaluation
  5. Identify stakeholders to be consulted on evaluation tasks
  6. Identify sources of technical and professional assistance
  7. Investigate sustainability implications of microcontroller applications
Confirm and apply safe electrical working practice

Evaluate microcontroller applications

  1. Determine suitability of components of application, including sensor or transducers, microcontroller and output devices, signal conditioning and interfacing used by applications
  2. Assess scope and suitability of microcontroller functions, software and programming to applications
  3. Assess suitability of network, supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) options, communications protocols, standards and network topologies, human-machine interfaces (HMIs) and graphical user interfaces (GUIs) used by applications
  4. Review application for compliance with WHS and regulatory requirements, codes of practice, standards and risk management procedures
  5. Record results of scoping, principles and techniques identification, and evaluation of applications
  6. Provide documentation that includes files, layouts, programs, flow charts or state diagrams
