E-Learning benefits. How to learn about iSMA CONTROLLI products at any time and for free

Nowadays it seems obvious that education through digital resources can be just as effective as studying in the classroom. Coursera, Udemy, Skillshare, Udacity and similar platforms proved that and helped millions to get knowledge in a convenient way. Once the course is created it can be accessed from different parts of the world, regardless of a student’s location and time zone he lives in. The materials can be played back as many times as needed to understand the topic.

As our portfolio becomes bigger and more complex we also identified a need to create an E-Learning platform. Yes it is free and available for everyone here at E-Learning Platform

After registering In a training platform anyone can have an access to the trainings related to most of iSMA CONTROLLI products.  As for today, users can learn about:

  • How the E-Learning platform works. In order to ensure the best user experience, this course helps to learn the most important things about the platform itself.
  • iSMA I/O Modules. Considering the intuitiveness and simplicity of iSMA I/O Module range it may seem that this course is not necessary. But there is a lot of nice functions related to the I/O modules, about which user may have never heard. I/O modules are the foundation of the BMS system so it is important to be able to take full advantage of them.
  • iSMA Powered by SEDONA [BASIC]. Here the user can learn about two controllers which are based on the Sedona Framework – iSMA-B-AAC20 & iSMA-B-FCU. Also, the important part of the course is the introduction to iSMA Tool software, which allows engineers to work with iSMA Sedona controllers.
  • iSMA-B-FCU Default Application [BASIC]. iSMA-B-FCU is appreciated as a controller which comes from the factory’s well-prepared application for the most popular types of FAN COIL unit control. But in order to know what options the application has and how to adjust it to the given parameters, this cour is a MUST!
  • iSMA-B-MAC36NL tutorial. The iSMA-B-MAC36NL is a Niagara controller, so for those who have experience with the Niagara system, it is a no-brainer. But never the less this controller gives some unique functions which are important to know.
  • iSMA-B-2D. Here the trainee can learn about the basic parameters and configuration of our DALI controller.
  • iSMA Graphics  – Installation and working with the templates. To simplify and accelerate the creation of visualization the graphic library has been packed with a set of graphic templates prepared to run with HVAC equipment such as AHU/RTU/VAV, and FCU. This course teaches how to create the application based on those templates.
  • iSMA Graphics – create a visualization in Niagara 4. Here users can learn even more about the visualization process in Niagara 4 with iSMA Graphics

The course is built in an interactive way, there is a technical description, but also slides and videos. In order to ensure that the information was understood correctly, there are quizzes at the end of every topic. Some courses may require having a physical controller in order to finish the practical exercises and get real experience.

The E-Learning platform is built in such a way that it teaches the user to navigate the iSMA Controlli documentation, tools and web space. It is important to know where to find a manual, datasheet or where to download software and additional files related to the specific product. And the platform teaches how to do that.

The E-Learning platform can both serve as an introduction to the portfolio for those who are having the first interaction with iSMA Controlli products range, but also as a reminder for those who finished the certified training and would like to consolidate their knowledge. The course is built in such a way that the user must do it step by step from introduction to more complex tasks, but once the course is finished it is possible to recall the information by choosing any part of the course.

Each course is perfectly described – you can see how many lessons, topics and quizzes make up each course:

The courses are prepared in a very professional manner. You must pass at least 80% of each course to move on to the next topic. This way you can be sure that you will acquire knowledge at a minimum good level.

Each course ends with a final quiz that summarizes the knowledge of all topics. This quiz must also be passed with a minimum of 80% to complete the course.

The user can check the stage of their learning – completed courses are marked ‘Complete’, and courses started are marked ‘In progress’.
