1. IETM for beginners/ I am new to IETM.
IETM:
Interactive Electronic Technical Manual is your PDF file i.e. user handbook, technical manual only. It is
called Level -1 IETM.
IETM is one of the mandatory deliverables (DVD) along with any equipment to be supplied to Indian
Defence. JSG is an agency that defines standards for every defense deliverable. JSG 0852:2015 is standard
to prepare IETM documentation.
(If you have heard about JSS 0251, it is the standard defined to design your UHBs or technical manuals.
JSS describes the layout of the document. I.e. Front page design, table of content design, header and
footer, index, a record of amendment sheet, the structure of the content/document,etc are defined in JSS.
Similarly,JSG 0852 is for IETM documentation.)

2. Users can save bookmarks and annotate text etc. Users can see his search history, document access history,
etc.
These elements are called INTERACTIVITY. These features power the document and make it an Interactive
electronic manual. These documents are technical in nature and seen using electronic devices hence they
are termed interactive electronic technical manuals.
Interactivity does not mean, clicking on the part it will blow up into sub-parts, and clicking on a subpart it
will further blow up and an explanation comes in voice-over, etc.
They are called 3d Blowups or 3d Virtual reality models and Computer-based tutors (CBTs)
Having said this, still we can put these 3d blowups in IETM. If the Original equipment manufacturer (OEM)
has any videos or 3d animation blowups then we can plug them into IETM.

3. Level 2: (IETM)
IETM is having cross-references to one section of PDF to another section cross reference using hyperlinks
is Level -2
In Level 3, all your manuals will be converted into to HTML pages and arranged in a linear structure in the
form a of Table of content, tree as per the original manual.

Previous buttons, search in page, manuals tab, and drawings tab will be available in Level -3.
Level -4 is more advanced than Level -3. All the manuals are converted into a database. IETM viewer is a
web application/ software to view this IETM Level -4. Using IETM Viewer software, the database will be
accessed and viewed.

4. Ietm Level 4 -Code And Pixels
Like PDF and MS word, this is not any document so that you can see a
sample of 10 pages, etc. Names indicate technical manual but it is not any
single file so that you can see a sample.
If you see the software once, you will get 100 % clarity about IETM. If you
want to see the sample please contact us at: 9849527706 and we will
arrange a quick demo or software walkthrough of live projectsso that you
get a full understanding of the architecture of IETM
