This one day course focusses on the definition

and scope of the custom integration industry.

By identifying your company type in the market

we can help you to map the key elements of

the trade to the layout of your business and

give you the relevant information to drive your

people and business in the right direction.

This course is day one of the Gateway

certification.

Topics include:

• Industry Introduction

• Jobsite Safety and Pre-Fix Checks

• 1st Fix and 2nd Fix

• Equipment and Components

• AV Terminology

Basic maths, science and engineering skills

are an essential part of any home technology

technician’s toolbox. The ability to understand

the technical workings of a system by applying

scientific calculations is vital for the design

and installation of any home technology

application.

This one-day course starts with the most

basic mathematical and engineering skills and

applies them to the world of residential home

technology.

This one day course provides an overview of

basic audio and video, networking and control

system terminology used within our trade.

Equipping your sales force with this valuable

information will allow them to provide your

customers with the necessary detail they

are looking for from a professional custom

integration company. This course is also ideal

for those new to the industry and looking to

develop their business model.

Sub-systems fundamentals is day two of the

Gateway certification.

Topics include:

• Cinema Basics

• Networking

• Control

• Calibration, Testing and Commissioning

The purpose of this course is to provide a

foundation for understanding IP (Internet

Protocol). It is appropriate for both beginners

and individuals looking to formalise and

increase their IP networking knowledge. With

the vast majority of subsystems now having the

ability to be converged over an IP network, this

is arguably the most important topic to make

sure that you have a solid foundation in.

Topics covered include:

- Understanding the 7 layer OSI Model and how

it relates to networking (essential learning)

- Applying the OSI model to residential network

structure and setup

- Recognising and understanding basic

network hardware

- IP Addressing - using the right addresses for

the right job

- Basic network troubleshooting

By the end of this course, participants should

be able to: explain common network protocols

such as TCP, UDP, IP, DHCP, DNS, and NAT,

understand the functions of a consumer

router in a wired environment and begin basic

troubleshooting in a consumer level IP network.

Repeat service calls cost time and money.

With remote access capability and remote

programming of control systems, these calls

will no longer drain your resources. This course

addresses the available methods of remote

access and their proper usage to improve

your efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Learn to properly configure VPN access, port

forwarding, port translation, and dynamic DNS,

and troubleshoot remote connection issues.

Activities include hands-on NAT, PAT, and VPN

configuration. Before attending this course,

students should have a working knowledge

of IP addressing and subnetting, basic router

configuration and port forwarding, how to

troubleshoot using basic CLI commands, IP

device configuration (change addresses,

gateways, subnets, ports), and WAN/LAN basic

routing principles.

If you’re interested in adding audio, video or

home cinema to your business model or have

tinkered with them in the past, this course is

the ideal way to consolidate your prior skills

and knowledge into a professional approach to

this fundamental part of the CI market.

Aimed at new AV technicians and more

experienced installers from other electronic

industries, this session contains the most

important technical information, basic design

principles and the installation practices

required.

New, prospective and existing members will be introduced to the Association, the benefits of

membership and the evening will provide a forum for ideas and debate. This evening will be a relaxed

affair and a great opportunity to network with your peers.

Thursday 7th August

Heard the buzz about recurring revenue but

aren’t sure what’s involved or perhaps aren’t

comfortable incorporating new and unknown

elements into your business model? Ready to get

started selling service contracts to your clients

but aren’t sure about the steps involved? You’re

not alone. We’re here to help.

This session will present three very different

strategies for recurring revenues and allow

attendees to formulate a solid business strategy

that works for them. If you feel you are the ‘yes’

man within your business then why not take

a look at a different business approach which

enables you to have more confidence in your

sales strategy.

RF distribution offers a wide range of signal

distribution possibilities covering radio and

TV in both analogue and digital formats.

Modern digital TV services mean a single coax

cable can offer more than 100 channels of

entertainment including HD broadcasts.

Many homes already have some coax installed

and this course explains, in detail, how coax can

be used to move signals around the home, how

signals from various sources can be combined

and distributed around the home, and how

installers can ensure robust performance from a

coax network.

In addition, the course covers a number of key

technologies involved in whole-house system

integration through combined control. This

subject opens with IR control and moves on

to RS232 and IP. The course concludes with

exercises in IR learning, combining handsets

into ‘Universal’ remotes and writing robust and

efficient chained commands or ‘macros’.

Friday 8th August

The technical design of a high performance

home cinema is not a subjective decision.

For every parameter, there is a standard that

should be observed in order to offer a truly

immersive entertainment experience. This

course will examine those standards and give

you an insight into the importance of designing

cinemas using standards based engineering

calculations, rather than subjective guesswork.

The morning will be classroom based where the

instructor will introduce the standards and the

engineering skills necessary to apply them.

The afternoon will be spent working in small

groups applying the knowledge gained in the

morning. During the afternoon workshop, a

number of additional subject matter experts will

be on hand to spend time with individual groups

to help with the design.

By the end of this course, delegates will

understand how applying engineering

standards to cinema design ensures a high

standard of repeatable performance.

This is an exam only and there will not be a

review. Aimed at people who wish to become

CEDIA EST2 (previously called Installer Level 1)

Certified and intended for Member companies
