21、xists. The requirements of this standard should also be used, for example, as a reference standard by ISO and IEC technical committees which prepare product family or dedicated product standards for machines. Where a product family or dedicated product standard exists, its requirements take preceden
22、ce. At human-machine interfaces, warning and danger signals need to convey safety-related meanings for the safe use and monitoring of machinery for exposed persons and operators. It is via the human-machine interface that the operator interacts with the machinery or process in an open-loop system (s
23、ee Figure 1). This interface consists of actuators, by means of which the operator initiates actions, and indicating devices, through which the operator receives information. In many applications, the information is represented by a signal which is encoded by a distinct set of rules and the operator
24、 has then to interpret the signal according to these rules. Different types of coding such as colour, shape or time are used as appropriate to the demands of the task of the operator. The reasons for using codes are: to permit the spatial separation of the machinery from centralized control stations
25、; to increase the perceptible amount of information given by an indicating device, for example, per display area unit, per unit of time; to decrease the mental work-load of an operator and/or exposed persons.

26、10-1:2008SAFETY OF MACHINERY INDICATION, MARKING AND ACTUATION Part 1: Requirements for visual, acoustic and tactile signals 1 Scope This part of IEC 61310 specifies requirements for visual, acoustic and tactile methods of indicating safety-related information, at the human-machine interface and to
27、exposed persons. It specifies a system of colours, safety signs, markings and other warnings, intended for use in the indication of hazardous situations and health hazards and for meeting certain emergencies. It also specifies ways of coding visual, acoustic and tactile signals for indicators and ac
28、tuators to facilitate the safe use and monitoring of the machinery. This standard is based on IEC 60073 with regard to coding by colour and alternative means, but is not limited to electrotechnical aspects. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the applicati
