VIRTUAL PNEUMATIC The Virtual Pneumatic Simulator is intended to help mechanics develop troubleshooting skills at their own pace. The simulator explains the braking system (Primary, Secondary, Door Interlock, Park, Brake and Emergency). It also provides an animated 3D view of all the major components and their location in the bus. Troubleshooting scenarios are pre-programmed to have mechanics identify the source of potential problems. The virtual model also makes the tool easily accessible without having to handle large mock ups.
