In this 12th episode of the Digitalization Tech Talks podcast series your hosts, Don Mack and Jonas Norinder are joined by Doug Ortiz, Siemens’ US DCS and Simulation Product Manager. We discuss Operator Training Simulators (OTS), which are becoming much more prevalent in the process industries. While they are primarily being used for operator training, they serve additional high value purposes, such as more efficient execution of Distributed Control System (DCS) projects.

Would you like to learn the basics of Operator Training Simulators, i.e., the ABCs of OTS? What are the major functions of an OTS? And how is an OTS deployed? Tune into this episode to learn the answers to these questions and more!
