Identify and describe the main station systems, components and equipment;
Proceed with Europa-T and DM24 digitizers and SSI software configuration;
Use State-of-Health (SOH) and data monitoring tools and demonstrate ability to assess station performance and SOH information;
Outline main operational tasks and practice on IRS reporting;
Explain the concept of configuration management and demonstrate efficient use of DOTS;
Demonstrate interrelationship between operations and maintenance activities and sources of support to sustain IMS stations and
Develop plans for mitigation, troubleshooting and problem solving of failures with significant impact on station performance, including recent experiences in relation to COVID-19 pandemic.
