Configure an unscored custom OTS exercise

1. In the unscored custom OTS exercise's Exercise Settings page, enter a name in the Name box.

2. (Optional) In Exercise Description, enter a description for the exercise.

   The learning platform converts your description to plain text and removes any formatting.

   The description appears with the exercise's entry in the Custom OTS Exercises section.

3. (Optional) In Learning Objectives, enter the objectives of the exercise.

   The learning platform converts your objectives to plain text and removes any formatting.

   The learning objectives appear with the exercise's entry in the Custom OTS Exercises section.

   

4. In IC number, enter the IC number that you want you call in AVEVA Dynamic Simulation when the exercise starts.

   The IC number must exist in the custom course's primary OTS. To check if the IC number is available, do the following:

   1. Open the custom course's primary OTS simulation in a new browser tab. See Update a custom course's primary Operator Training Simulator for more information.

   2. In the primary OTS simulation's Instructor station, select IC Summary.

      A Snapshot Summary window opens and lists all the available IC numbers that you can use.

5. (Optional but recommended) In Session Duration (minutes), enter the length that you want the session's simulation to run after the Trainee starts the exercise.

   The session automatically ends after it reaches this time length. When the end of the session is near, a timer dialog appears where the Trainee can choose to extend the session. The Trainee can also manually end the session before the set duration.

   The session's duration appears with the exercise's entry in the Custom OTS Exercises section.

6. Select Save changes.

   The Project Updated page opens to confirm your configuration.

   

7. Select Continue.

   You are directed to a page where you can do the following:

   • Select open simulation in a new tab to open the custom OTS exercise in a new browser tab where you can check the configuration in AVEVA Dynamic Simulation.

   • Select Return to course to return to the custom OTS course's main page.

     

     The new exercise's entry appears in the Custom OTS Exercises section.
