Simulators / Instrumentation

Instrumentation, on loops and signals that behave like the real plant

Q: Do I need any equipment?

No. It runs in a browser. The meter is modelled; you probe it with the mouse.

Q: What happens when my coached sessions run out?

The sim keeps working. Coaching pauses until the next month or a top-up.

Q: Can my employer buy for the crew?

Yes. Team seats are available; ask about a paid pilot.

Q: Where does the AI get its answers?

From the physics model and expert-audited material, not the open web.

Real physics, real signals, thousands of fault variations, even the intermittent ones. A meter in your hand and an AI Skills Mentor beside you.

Free to start, and it stays free. Registers in under a minute. You'll want a PC or laptop; on a phone, drop your email and we'll send the link.

Sim animation — a fault installed, the meter probing, the reading changing. [poster + clip drop in here]

A 4-20 mA loop: transmitter, controller, valve, probed with a modelled meter.

What you can run today

How it works

Register

Free tier, no card. The same login every tier uses.

Run a sim

Real readings, real faults, a meter in hand.

Get coached when stuck

One coached session is one worked problem with the AI Skills Mentor, start to finish. Setup, tips and questions about past sessions stay free.

Move up when ready

Each rung adds a system and more sessions. The sim keeps working when sessions run out.

The AI Skills Mentor

Augmented intelligence, grounded in vetted material, not autocomplete. It reasons through the real problem using the physics model and the Competency Matrix, not guesses off the open web. It remembers every session. Ask what you'd never ask a boss.

Want the whole instrumentation program?

SkillsMentor builds the full craft on top of these simulators. It adapts to you, your pace and your goals, teaching the why and the how on a real physics engine and expert-audited craft knowledge, not a canned course. It's coming soon.

Questions people ask

Do I need any equipment?

No. A browser. The meter is modelled; you probe it with the mouse.

Is this a video course?

No. You run the circuit and the faults behave like real ones.

What happens when my coached sessions run out?

The sim keeps working. Coaching pauses until next month or a top-up.

Can my employer buy for the crew?

Yes. Team seats are on the pricing page.
