Abstract :
This paper describes the distance training of computer-based measurements and instrument control for professionals from industry, which was performed within E-PRAGMATIC network (E-Learning and Practical Training of Mechatronics and Alternative Technologies in Industrial Community). The purpose of this training is to teach professionals from the industry the basics of data acquisition and instrument control using LabVIEW. The training contains hands-on exercises accessible through a remote workstation equipped with state of the art development software and measurement hardware.
