The AUDY Simulator System, the most comprehensive realistic simulator product on the market today, features a variety of operator stations and an extensive library of simulation models driven by COMPAQ Computer Corporation's (COMPAQ) 64-bit RISC based AlphaStation, which delivers high performance computing. A complete AUDY system includes an operator station, instructor/control workstation, simulation programs and an Alpha Workstation.
Operator Trainee Stations
AUDY offers a diverse selection of operator/trainee stations:- Full Function interface to the Distributed Control Systems (DCSs)- Emulated DCS Operator Stations. AUDY provides Full Function Direct Interfaces to actual plant Distributed Control Systems (DCS) as one solution for the operator/trainee station. Additionally, AUDY provides Emulated Operator Stations for all major DCS vendors. Together, AUDY offers the most diverse selection, yet flexible, operator/trainee stations to meet one's training requirements and budget.The flexible real-time operating environment of the AUDY 'open system' architecture allows you to mix and match operator/trainee stations on one simulator system from vendors such as:
AUDY Full Function Direct Interface to DCS
AUDY has uniquely engineered and designed interface hardware and/or software which can be interfaced with today's distributed control system operator stations. This system allows for the best of both worlds---full functionality of the operator station including use of actual plant configurations and translation of plant graphics as well as the full functionality of the AUDY training system (i.e., snapshot, backtrack, freeze, time scales, etc.).

The emulated operator station is an AUTODYNAMICS (AUDY) designed "look-alike" operator system. Applicable to the most popular control systems, the AUDY emulators contain all functional features needed for training operators. With AUDY emulators, operators learn dynamic process interactions with the same in-depth understanding of one's processes as with the full function direct connect operator training stations.AUDY's instrument-specific operator stations provide emulations for most of the major DCS vendors' control stations. AUDY's emulated operator stations feature large screen color monitors, touchscreen capability and/or pointing device (as applicable) an operator keyboard. AUDY software emulates the displays of these operator stations enabling operators to be trained using the same standard operating procedures (SOPs) as on the real distributed control system.
The AUDY instructor workstation provides the maximum in flexibility while achieving the user-friendly features you expect from AUDY, the worldwide simulation systems specialists. This powerful software is easy to use since all control options are presented via windows, pulldown menu and/or graphic displays. Point and click functionality is included in an easy to understand, logical methodology. System flexibility is provided by offering a broad selection of control functions.A typical AUDY system generally includes several AUDY standard process models and usually one or more custom developed models designed precisely to the customer's specifications and needs.The color, X-Windows graphically-based instructor station provides simulation model status, time clocks, non-design condition summary, and many other features including:
