NeoView / NeoLink System Overview

This short course provides information in relation to both NeoView and NeoLink platforms.  Fundamental topics are covered in relation to the hardware, software, system design, and architecture.  This course has primarily been created to provide basic NeoView and NeoLink information for a Controls Engineer.

Please note that this course is not a Niagara training course.  If you would like to undertake Tridium or Niagara training, please visit the Tridium University homepage.

Config Theory 303

In this course, we will look at the fundamentals of controller logic and how to create this to allow the controller to function as required for a particular application. Various topics are covered from the beginning theory to building a final working configuration.

As you progress through the various lessons, the theory and application of configuration creation will be covered. 

Lesson 1 will need to be completed prior to accessing Lesson 2 and so on until you have completed the course. 

Please note that it will take some time to learn and master configuration building to an extent that you are confident. Please have patience and don't rush your work.

General Information

Prerequisites:

  • Sound computer skills
  • General knowledge of HVAC systems
  • Basic controls theory
Duration: Self-paced. Allow at least 16 to 24 hours in total. Note that the lessons will remember the last page that you viewed. There is no need to complete each lesson in one session if this is not possible.
