What an assessment for ICTRFN202 must cover

33 assessable components: 4 elements (13 performance criteria), 3 performance evidence and 11 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 6 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Prepare for work on terrestrial antenna

1.1Prepare for installation, applying all relevant legislation, codes, regulations and standards, and identify any safety issues
1.2Organise resources to be available on site
1.3Contact client to arrange access to site and notify about possible outage
1.4Organise tools and equipment, and ensure they are in safe working order and adjusted to manufacturer’s specifications

2 Assemble and mount antenna and coaxial cable

2.1Assemble antenna on site according to plans, specifications and enterprise guidelines using safe industry practice
2.2Connect coaxial cable to antenna and install lightning protection devices
2.3Mount antenna to structure, and set polarisation and initial antenna azimuth and elevation

3 Test and align antenna system

3.1Connect installed antenna system to appropriate test equipment and pan antenna to optimise signal across all specified channel frequencies
3.2Conduct performance tests according to manufacturer’s specifications and enterprise guidelines
3.3Interpret test results, compare with manufacturer’s design specifications and make adjustments

4 Complete administrative duties

4.1Record test results and complete appropriate records
4.2Secure and clean up site to original condition in environmentally safe manner
4.3Notify client of work completion and obtain sign off

Performance evidence

organise the site and obtain relevant resources in preparation for installation
assemble, install, align and test a terrestrial antenna according to plans and specifications, and site specific safety requirements
conduct performance tests according to manufacturer’s specifications and enterprise guidelines

Knowledge evidence

outline the following features of an antenna: directivity, front to back ratio, optimum placement, pattern, polarisation
discuss bit error ratio (BER)
summarise coaxial cable types and properties
discuss electromagnetic waves including: absorption by trees and buildings, awareness of exposure to electromagnetic radiation (EMR), reflection
outline legislation, codes of practice and other formal agreements that directly impact on antenna installation
explain modulation including: bandwidth, individual spectrum shape of analog and digital television signals and digital audio broadcasting plus (DAB+) digital radio signals
discuss modulation error ratio (MER)
outline radio frequency (RF) spectrum including: Australian DAB+ digital radio channel frequencies, Australian television ultra high frequency (UHF) and very high frequency (VHF) channel plan (digital and analog), terminology related to bands used for broadcasting (Bands I, II, III, IV and V)
explain signal level expressed in dBuV units
discuss specific work health and safety (WHS) requirements that impact on the installation of terrestrial antenna equipment
summarise television antenna product knowledge

Foundation skills

Reading: Recognises and interprets textual information from relevant sources to determine specifications, enterprise guidelines and plans
Writing: Uses clear, specific and industry related terminology to complete and update workplace documentation and in written communications with clients
Oral Communication: Uses specific and relevant language to clearly articulate operational and site matters, and uses questioning and listening techniques to determine the views and opinions of others
Numeracy: Analyses numerical information to interpret and evaluate technical data and results, and to take measurements
Navigate the world of work: Takes personal responsibility for adherence to legal and regulatory requirements, with specific reference to safe industry practices Understands the main tasks, responsibilities and boundaries of own work
Get the work done: Determines job priorities, sequences the steps involved in clearly defined and familiar tasks, and identifies and assembles the resources and access required Takes responsibility for routine decision making by selecting from a range of predetermined options in routine situations, identifying and taking some situational factors into account Identifies and implements standard solutions for routine problems

Questions about assessing ICTRFN202

What does an assessment tool for ICTRFN202 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for ICTRFN202 needs to address all 33 unit components: 4 elements with 13 performance criteria, 3 performance evidence requirements, 11 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for ICTRFN202?

Auditori pulls the current release of ICTRFN202 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for ICTRFN202 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing ICTRFN202 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of ICTRFN202, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
