5、ationsIEEE Standards documents are developed within the IEEE Societies and the Standards Coordi-nating Committees of the IEEE-SA Standards Board. Members of the committees serve voluntarilyand without compensation. They are not necessarily members of the Institute. The standards devel-oped within IE

6、EE represent a consensus of the broad expertise on the subject within the Institute aswell as those activities outside of IEEE that have expressed an interest in participating in the devel-opment of the standard.Use of an IEEE Standard is wholly voluntary. The existence of an IEEE Standard does not

7、implythat there are no other ways to produce, test, measure, purchase, market, or provide other goods andservices related to the scope of the IEEE Standard. Furthermore, the viewpoint expressed at thetime a standard is approved and issued is subject to change brought about through developments inthe

8、 state of the art and comments received from users of the standard. Every IEEE Standard is sub-jected to review at least every five years for revision or reaffirmation. When a document is morethan five years old and has not been reaffirmed, it is reasonable to conclude that its contents,although sti

9、ll of some value, do not wholly reflect the present state of the art. Users are cautioned tocheck to determine that they have the latest edition of any IEEE Standard.Comments for revision of IEEE Standards are welcome from any interested party, regardless ofmembership affiliation with IEEE. Suggesti

10、ons for changes in documents should be in the form ofa proposed change of text, together with appropriate supporting comments.Interpretations: Occasionally questions may arise regarding the meaning of portions of standards asthey relate to specific applications. When the need for interpretations is

11、brought to the attention ofIEEE, the Institute will initiate action to prepare appropriate responses. Since IEEE Standards rep-resent a consensus of all concerned interests, it is important to ensure that any interpretation hasalso received the concurrence of a balance of interests. For this reason,

12、 IEEE and the members ofits societies and Standards Coordinating Committees are not able to provide an instant response tointerpretation requests except in those cases where the matter has previously received formalconsideration.

17、uction(This introduction is not part of IEEE Std 1289-1998, IEEE Guide for the Application of Human Factors Engineering inthe Design of Computer-Based Monitoring and Control Displays for Nuclear Power Generating Stations.)When the majority of the presently operating nuclear power plants were first d

18、esigned, the operator interfacedesign philosophy reflected the availability of, and experience with, single sensor/single parameter displays,such as meters or trend recorders. During the control room design reviews of the 1980s, it was realized thatthis type of display often led to poor functional p

19、erformance. The user frequently needed displays that couldintegrate information rather than just present data. In other cases, traditional instrumentation performedpoorly or unreliably. A trend has developed slowly over the past decade in which, while replacing controlroom instrumentation, utilities

20、 have found that the instruments have become obsolete, are no longer avail-able, and are not supported by vendors. This has led nuclear power generating stations to upgrade instrumen-tation utilizing computer-based display/control devices.Working Group 7.1 (WG 7.1) reviewed existing standards that a

21、ddress the use of computer-based displaysin the nuclear power industry. It found that, while there were top-level human factors standards (such asIEEEStd1023-1988) and specific standards to address visual display hardware parameters, there was noavailable industry guidance to address computer-based

22、display formats appropriate for nuclear power plantmonitoring and control. The working group also investigated efforts throughout the industry to developcomputer-based monitoring and control displays, and found significant efforts at many utilities, instumenta-tion and control vendors, and governmen

23、t laboratories that attempted to provide guidance. Based on theidentified need for guidance in this area and the developing industry base, the development of this guide wasinitiated.The intent of this guide is to provide human factors engineering principles as guidance to management per-sonnel and e

24、ngineers who must develop or select computer-based displays, either in the replacement, modi-fication, or design of instrumentation and control systems. A process for determining display needs, whichare related to those of IEEE Std 1023-1988, and descriptions of a wide variety of display formats are

25、 pro-vided.Guidance is provided for using user tasks to determine information needs, which in turn define display char-acteristics. Information is provided that relates to a wide range of display formats, describing what they are,when they are useful, and when they are not useful to display the info

26、rmation needed by the user. Thisdesign criteria guide provides more specific guidance under the top-level guide, IEEE Std 1023-1988.ParticipantsThis guide was prepared by WG 7.1 of the Human Factors and Control Facilities Subcommittee (SC 7) ofthe Nuclear Power Engineering Committee of the IEEE Powe

27、r Engineering Society. During the initial development of this guide, J. B. Zgliczynski was chair of WG 7.1. Shortly thereafter,R.L.Starkey took over as chair of WG 7.1 and served in this capacity for the majority of the writing effort.During the final stages of development, and during balloting and

28、final editing, S. A. Fleger served as chair ofWG 7.1. The following list represents the membership of WG 7.1 that attended meetings and contributed tothe effort:Stephen A. Fleger, ChairT. J.
