Main Objective

This four-day course shows you how to build basic and ARINC 661 applications using VAPS XT and how to create and add new widgets or objects for the tool. The course also covers the use of VAPS XT State Charts and for ARINC 661 mode: how to build the VAPS XT 661 definition files, UA layers and widget sets.

Upon completion of the course, the participant should be able to create formats and objects, to create executables from the formats. The participant would have used the major basic primitives of VAPS XT and will be able to create his own. Students will be immediately productive when they step back into their work environment.  

Target Audience
