• Procedures and Student Compliance files are automatically generated.

• Time limits can be added to increase training difficulty.
• Notification is given upon successful completion of the training exercise or in the event of an improper action.
• Online user Help files with examples are provided.

Panel Configuration

Users can customize the layout of the panel for each training scenario. Many of the commonly used components (switches, meters, lamps, alarms, etc.) are included with ASTRO™ to provide flexibility for designing the panel layouts. Custom components can be added in the event that your exact component has not yet been incorporated into ASTRO™.

Student Compliance and Exercise Procedures

Once the layout of the panel has been defined, instructors build the training exercise with easy to use commands. Both the students compliance file and the training procedure are automatically generated by ASTRO™. The procedures can be saved, printed or reviewed online during training.

ASTRO™ Purchasing Options

ASTRO™ licenses can be purchased individually or as a site or corporate license. ASTRO™ can also be preinstalled on a desktop or laptop computer if desired. A hardware panel version can be included for sites desiring the option.
