The De Anza Primer: A Basic Introduction to the De Anza Graphics Display

Abstract

The De Anza Primer provides personnel newly assigned to the Training Analysis and Feedback (TAF) Section of the NTC Operations Group with a training tool for learning the routine skills needed to operate the De Anza Graphics Display. The instruction is organized in a step-by-step manner that begins with the most rudimentary station operations and progresses through the manipulation and control of all functions necessary for routine operation of the De Anza Graphics Display Tablet. Instruction is presented in a series of hands-on exercises that demonstrate various graphics display functions used by Core Instrumentation Subsystem (CIS) personnel to electronically monitor the battalion task force during the rotation. The manual is divided into six sections: (1) Preventive Maintenance/Minor Troubleshooting; (2) Map Control; (3) Unit/Player Display Formats; (4) Control Measures; (5) Map and Button Bins; and (6) Historian and AAR Mode Controls. Each section contains one or more sets of hands-on exercises designed to be completed with minimum supervision regardless of the skill level of the learner. All exercise sets can be completed in 4-1/2 hours. In addition to the Table of Contents, which lists all exercise and function buttons described in the text, an alphabetical Index that lists each De Anza function addressed in the manual and references the page(s) of instruction is also included.
