Prerequisites: Basic familiarity with Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP operating systems as well as basic computer literacy is required.

Purpose: This course is designed to provide the Tennelec Eclipse user with an understanding of the software, hardware and application. This course supersedes SU-800-3 and SU-801-3.

Description: This four-day course covers all aspects of current version Eclipse operation in conjunction with Tennelec Alpha/Beta counters. It is an introductory course that begins with hardware familiarization and proceeds through setup, calibration, and sample counting. The course then moves to more advanced functionality such as the Microsoft Access database, custom report generation and modification using Seagate Crystal Reports.

General Information:
This Eclipse class is designed to replace the basic and advanced classes formerly offered. The course covers what is happening "behind the scenes". Time is spent examining the Microsoft Access database learning how Eclipse data is stored. Seagate Crystal Reports is discussed in-depth during the class. Multiple versions of Crystal Reports are typically presented. Crystal Reports syntax, formula editing, and advanced features will be discussed. Attendees are encouraged to bring copies of their custom reports to be worked on in class. "Hands on" learning is encouraged, both with the hardware and the software. Hardware varies by location, but typically includes vintage Tennelec systems as well as state of the art systems. Attendees are encouraged to provide feedback as to how Eclipse is currently being used in their labs, and what changes should be made in the future. Every class is different since the class is tailored to the needs of the companies represented.
