A full-featured training control environment for every simulator
The 3KEYMASTER™ Instructor Station is a full-featured Windows-based system for controlling and monitoring simulators — enabling instructors to develop and run training scenarios, monitor student performance, and verify and document simulator responses.
Powerful, Customizable, Role-Based Control
The Instructor Station is a role-based configuration of the 3KEYMASTER™ Graphical Engineering Station (GES) — providing all the tools required to improve operator performance and optimize plant operations. It can be used with either a 3KEYMASTER™ environment or with other vendors' simulation environments.
Custom look and feel — include pictures, bitmaps, icons, and text. No third-party graphic software required. Aesthetic customization needs no programming knowledge.
Access to all P&IDs, logic and control, electrical diagrams, hard panel mimics, and HMI emulations used for modeling and information display.
Powerful visualization using model parameters, multi-variable trend charts and tables, and watch objects for real-time monitoring.
Captures both instructor and trainee actions at user-defined time intervals — full replay capability for debrief and performance review.
Navigate the simulation environment using interconnected objects and diagrams — selectable by user type or specific user.
Validation & Verification with common time-interval comparison of charts — verifying and documenting simulator responses against reference data.
Instructor Station Advantages
A customer-specific solution that adapts to your training environment without unnecessary overhead or vendor lock-in.
The IS can be used with 3KEYMASTER™ or with other vendors' simulation environments — protecting existing investments.
New features can be added with ease — the open architecture ensures the Instructor Station grows with your training program.
Automatic data recording at user-defined intervals captures both instructor and trainee actions for complete post-session replay and debrief.
Displays are selectable by user type or specific user — simulation controls, P&IDs, electrical diagrams, logic diagrams, panel mimics, trends, and tables all configurable per role.
SVIC — Scoping, V&V and IC Manager
The SVIC tools run in the 3KEYMASTER™ environment as a standard Task — providing built-in archiving of simulator data according to user-defined scoping or investigative control factors. They improve efficiency across complex simulator tuning, equipment scoping, re-verification of performance, and automated IC recalibration following upgrades.
SBT & Graphical Scenarios
An upgradable Instructor Station feature that allows all scenarios developed for the simulator — including instructor interfaces and cueing — to be tested before use for operator training or examination. The simulator shall satisfy predetermined learning or examination objectives without exceptions, significant performance discrepancies, or deviation from the approved scenario sequence.
Pre-created sequenced Instructor Station commands execute automatically — freeing the instructor to monitor students and simulator responses rather than managing controls.
Scenarios run the simulator in a controlled, repeatable manner — ensuring consistent training quality and fair operator evaluation across all exercises.
Scenarios can be text-based or visual functional diagrams — giving instructors flexibility in how they design, execute, and document training exercises.
