THE SIMRAD EXPERIENCE

Transcription

1 THE SIMRAD EXPERIENCE Intrductin The Simrad Experience is a dedicated training package designed t ensure that yu get the mst frm yur Simrad Electrnics. The training is tailred t suit the actual installatin n yur wn bat as well as taking int accunt previus experience with marine electrnics. The training is split ver 2 sessins, and the duratin f the sessins are determined by the number f prducts in the system. The first sessin builds user cnfidence in the basic features f the prducts and ensures that all user settings are tuned t yur wn preferences. The secnd sessin generally fllws sme weeks later, after yu have had a chance t familiarize yurself with the instruments. We will then demnstrate mre advanced features f the prducts as well as answering any questins that have arisen in the intervening perid. By the end f the tw sessins all f the peratins described in this dcument will have been cvered.
