Operation and Organizational Maintenance Course
The L-3 WESCAM MX-Series Operation and Organizational Maintenance
(O&OM) training course is intended for system operators and maintainers
responsible for maintaining the WESCAM MX-Series systems at the
organizational level. This course is designed to provide a complete
training experience, combining classroom lectures and practical exercises
with the MX-Series system. This format ensures that operators possess
the knowledge and skill to successfully operate and maintain their
MX-Series turrets over a wide array of missions and environments.
The course is based around several mission scenarios that will teach the
operator how to plan the mission. In planning missions, the operator will
determine the appropriate system setup, sensor selection, steering mode,
and mission logistics. Scenarios are also used to simulate real-life
maintenance and troubleshooting situations. As required, maintenance
tasks at the organizational level include: window cleaning, desiccant
removal and replacement, and turret purging. Troubleshooting scenarios
consist of recognizing system failures, diagnosing faults, removal
and replacement of system Line Replaceable Units (LRUs).
This course is customized to the customer’s particular system and its
configuration. Courses are available upon request.

Operation and Organizational Maintenance
Open Enrolment Course
The L-3 WESCAM Operation and Organizational Maintenance 3-day
Open Enrolment course combines in-class lectures with practical
hands-on exercises with one of our MX-Series systems. This
cost-effective course allows customers to purchase a single seat in
the course, rather than pay for the entire course. Ideal for customers
with small fleets or new employees, this course has the same content
as our customer-specific O&OM courses, yet takes a generic approach
to MX-Series systems. Questions regarding customer-specific
configurations are welcomed by the instructor during the class.
These courses are scheduled throughout the year at various locations,
including WESCAM Burlington and WESCAM Authorized Service
Centers.
