Introduction

VBS3Fires v3.6.3 User Guide

The instructor can focus on identifying and highlighting learning points in a scenario rather than

explicitly responding to requests for call-for-fire.

5.2.2 Self-paced Training Configuration

The self-paced training configuration utilises a single license of VBS3Fires in Stand-alone mode. This

configuration allows the trainee to enter a call-for-fire on a Stand-alone terminal and to have that

same terminal automatically respond to the call-for-fire.

It allows a trainee to practice and rehearse calls-for-fire without the requirement for instructors to

control the Battery. It allows multiple trainees to rehearse calls-for-fire with each one interacting

with separate VBS3 scenarios.

This mode also provides the trainee with several analysis tools such as Terminal Effects analysis

tools, terrain analysis tools and camera visualisation tools. These are designed to assist a trainee in

fully exploring self-paced training scenarios with minimal requirement for instructor supervision.

5.2.3 Instructor-only Configuration

This configuration uses a single licence of VBS3Fires which runs in Stand-alone mode. It involves the

trainee sending a call-for-fire by speaking aloud to an Instructor/Operator who manually interprets

the CFF and inputs instructions for relevant Batteries using the Instructor terminal. This system is

ideal for training in classrooms with projector screens where the trainee’s viewpoint is displayed on

the main screen.
