Process control system which use complex control systems with numerous feed-forward,
feedback loops, integrators, and similar components shall be also provided. The systems
have systems logic diagrams that use standardized coding to show logic relationships.
Such diagrams may be reproduced on graphic displays with provisions for inputting
commands into active portions of the displayed diagram in order to manipulate
parameters such as set-points and constants.
Although logic displays are designed primarily for use by maintenance personnel in
system tuning and calibration, troubleshooting, or modifying the system configuration,
some users can become highly proficient and may prefer to exercise control over the
process by using such displays interactively.
These displays shall indicate the status of each logic block, the current value of each
associated input and output signal, and pertinent parameters for each logic block (such as
tuning constants and repeats per minute). They also should identify which logic paths are
currently controlling (e.g., when a limit condition causes a change in logic flow). Field
feedback indications from the controlled component (such as valve position, pump speed,
etc.) shall be included on these diagrams as an aid in analyzing system performance.
10.9 User Interaction Requirements
(1) Provide display coding to highlight which items can be selected to be controlled by
the operator; what control is currently active; and what is not controllable. The
differentiation is critical for mimics where some devices are not controlled.
(2) Provide graphic presentation of equipment on graphic display for clear indication of
GFG-002
control states:
(a) Is item automatically controlled?
(b) Is manual control inhibited?
(c) What is the current operating mode (auto, manual, local control, duty/standby
select, and etc.) of plant areas/units, loops, or equipment?
(d) Condition for indication to be flashing or steady.
• Steady : Condition established
• Flash : Operation in progress. Color is the color of the final
destination. E.g. a damper closing from full open position will
be indicating red and open and will flash green immediately the
closure is initiated.
