ADVANCED AUTOTRONICS LABORATORY
INTRODUCTION Modern vehicles rely increasingly on electronics for all aspects of their performance, and so electronics is a vital part of the training for automotives technicians. AUTOTRONICS (Automotive Electronics) is simply a convenient name for this important subject, covering all areas where electronic technology is used in motor vehicles. New subjects are arisen from the production programmes of the car industry, already involved in a transformation of the electrical control system used in cars. New service devices have been introduced and many of the older mechanical controls have been replaced with electrical or electronic ones for some years now. Using innovatory technologies like microelectronics, telematics, software offers higher safety and comfort, besides improving energy saving and reducing pollution levels for a better environment care. The following areas are those where electronics is of key importance: Electronic ignition and injection with lower emissions High Pressure Diesel engine control Electronic braking control ABS and EBD for higher safety Traction and stability control in order to improve drivability Multiplex network wiring to enhance reliability Dual zone air conditioning for better comfort Satellite guidance systems Standard computer diagnosis for customer service efficiency This situation has led to a major change in the skill and professional profiles, involving not only the automotive production industry, but also all those involved in the related maintenance area, as follows: Independent automotive repair and maintenance centre Quick service shops Aftermarket applications for equipments upgrade Emissions and safety inspection performed by authorities The Automotive Technician must continually adapt knowledge and know-how ELETTRONICA VENETA & IN.EL., a world leading company in education, has designed and produced a multi-purpose computerized laboratory based on advanced and integrated educational solutions which comprehensively fulfils all the needs in this field, for all types and models of vehicles. The systems and training equipment are suitable for theoretical study, experiments and practical work, for training courses (of one or more years), as well as for specialization and up-dating courses. Some of the equipment is particularly suitable for classroom demonstrations. The industrial solutions designed by Elettronica Veneta & IN.EL. s.p.a. for education in AUTOTRONICS provide the users with the necessary tools for developing a comprehensive training process for the technicians in this field. It also offers the advantage of extending and/or complete courses of electronics-electrotechnicsmechanics, so that the trainees are up to date and needed in the labour market. Introductory training in general electronics and electronic components, related particularly to the automotive industry. Basic concepts of the operation of the main mechanical components and systems of cars are studied by means of software simulations designed for use under Windows. Complete analysis of all the electric/electronic systems for controlling engine and transmissions in cars, including troubleshooting and setting up. Use of the most advanced diagnostic systems applied in workshops on cars with the most sophisticated technology.
These aims can be achieved through: A computerized interactive laboratory with experiment modules equipped with circuits and devices, for the study of general electronics and of actual and characteristic automotive components. Thanks to its configuration this laboratory is an effective way to study the operating principles of the main sensors, transducers and actuators for the control of the engine and cars movement.

COMPUTER AIDED INSTRUCTION - CAI - for AUTOTRONICS
DESCRIPTION The AUTOSIM software is a powerful aid for a basic training on the main units of modern cars. It includes THEORETICAL descriptions and ANIMATED SIMULATIONS of the operation of a cars systems and components. Topics range from the study of internal combustion engines and relevant checks to the various systems of a vehicle. This software can be used effectively by the Teacher to explain the lesson directly, using a Personal Computer, or by means of an Automated Overhead Projector for showing the display windows with their relevant simulations to all the students. Lesson Structure The software consists of a set of lessons, divided into 2 sections: 1. THEORY The topic of the lesson is introduced: the general concepts and the main theoretical principles are emphasized. Texts, charts, drawings and formulas relating to the topic are used in this part of the lesson. 2. SIMULATIONS The PC simulates the component under examination under various operational conditions. The simulations mean that students can assimilate the concepts described in the THEORY section, more easily and also be encouraged to an inductive examination of these concepts. In this phase all the PCs capabilities (particularly graphic and colour animations) are used exhaustively.
