Performance Evidence
Evidence of ability to:
- Comply with standards, regulations and work health and safety (WHS) procedures and practices when developing an integrated system
- communicate with customers
- determine the full scope of specifications for an integrated digital reception system
- use calculations to correctly determine the number of network and current requirements
- place system devices appropriately in system scheme
- apply and check appropriate modes of programming and diagnostic tools in the design
- program devices and set load operating parameters according to manufacturer specifications
- use diagnostic tools to locate and correct system defects, faults and anomalies
- document and backup system during appropriate stages of the project.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
Knowledge Evidence
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
- describe the applications and advantages of integrated systems
- identify the bus system cable type, polarity, length and acceptable topologies
- describe the process of controlling digital system integration (DSI) and communicating with digital addressable lighting interface (DALI) electronic ballasts
- identify factors that affect control bus stability, including number of units on a network, and current drawn by devices in relation to current output of power supplies
- define the operating parameters of integrated systems and programming to an extent indicated by:
- importance of project documentation and backup
- importance of location of output and input devices and control bus power supplies
- describe lighting dimmer capabilities and selection
