Course Description

This competency standard unit covers the modification and redesign of electronics and communications systems to augment existing systems for clients. It encompasses safe working practices, system parameter reconfiguration, analysis to assure optimum performance, following procedures, and documenting final modifications and settings.

National Codes, Titles, Elements and Performance Criteria

National Element Code & Title:	UEENEEH168A Modify - redesign of electronics and communications systems
Element:	1. Prepare to modify-redesign of electronics and communications system(s).
Performance Criteria:	1.1 OHS procedures for a given work area are obtained and understood. 1.2 Established OHS risk control measures and procedures in preparation for the work are followed. 1.3 Safety hazards that have not previously been identified are noted and established risk control measures are implemented. 1.4 Appropriate personnel are consulted to ensure the work is co-ordinated effectively with others involved on the work site. 1.5 System operating parameters are identified by reviewing system specifications and component technical data. 1.6 The limitations, use and operation of the system to be modified is established from original specifications, manufacturers‟ data and the like 1.7 The extent of modification is determined from measurements, tests, inspections, system limitations and other relevant requirements 1.8 Specifications and instructions for the modifications are documented in accordance with requirements and organisational procedures 1.9 Tools, equipment, applications, and devices needed for the work are obtained in accordance with established procedures and checked for correct operation and safety. 1.10 Preparatory work is checked to ensure no unnecessary damage has occurred and complies with requirements.
Element:	2. Generate modification-redesign of electronics and communications system(s).
Performance Criteria:	2.1 OHS risk control measures and procedures for carrying out the work are followed. 2.2 Alternative modification arrangements are considered and discussed with appropriate personnel 2.3 Safety, functionality and economic considerations are incorporated in the proposed modification design Proposed modification complies with all requirements and includes specifications and documentation for alteration of the system(s) Changes in the use and operation of the system(s) as a consequence of the proposed modification are included in the documentation 2.4 Decisions for dealing with unexpected situations are made from discussions with appropriate persons and job specifications and requirements. 2.5 Methods for dealing with unexpected situations are selected on the basis of safety and specified work outcomes. 2.6 Modification-redesign is carried out efficiently without unnecessary waste of materials or damage to apparatus, the surrounding environment or services and using sustainable energy principles.
Element:	3. Completion and report modification-redesign activities.
Performance Criteria:	3.1 OHS risk control work completion measures and procedures are followed. 3.2 Proposed modification is checked under established procedures for compliance with all relevant requirements 3.3 Work site is cleaned and made safe in accordance with established procedures. 3.4 Proposed modification is submitted for appropriate organisational approval and, where applicable, statutory or regulatory approval 3.5 Approved copies of the modification-redesign documents are issued, and copies retained, documented and stored in records in accordance with established procedures and requirements
