                                                                                 '(h FOREWORD:     Technical expressions and functional descriptions are used in most forms of communications essenttal to the power industry.      Many of these expressions and descriptions are reduced by contraction, omission, or substitution.                 These reduced      expressions    or    descriptions are then considered abbreviations. In other cases acronyms are created by using the first letter or syllables of the sxcessive parts of an expression or description.

Idealistically, all expressions and descriptions should be spelled out in full form. However, space limitations quickly negates this ideal approach. Second, convenience of use offers assurance that abbreviations, subols, and acronyms will continue in use. Therafore, it becomes important to assure . consistency of meaning fc. those abbreviations, symbols, and acronyms used within a certain industry or society. The purpose of this Design Directive is to provide guidance in the selection and use of abbreviations, symbols, ar,d acronyms. BACKGROUND: A survey of the Ft. St. Vrain Control Room was conducted to list the abbreviations, symbols, and dcronyms used. This survey also provided a frecuency of use .:ount for each variation of a particular abbresiation or a :ronym. The variation with the higher uslage was considered for retention. A comparison with attachment G-18 of Administrativ~e Procedure G-I was made to eliminate differences where polssible. Final selections were then based on ease of recognition:, acceptance, frequency of use, and labei space limitations. It is recongnized that many acceptable variatioris do exist and that Table "A" included in this directive may difier from other sources. Maintaining consistency within 1,h e operating environment is of extreme importance and should nt:t be degraded by applying abbreviations, symbols, or acronyrs preferred by individuals or outside sources. 8511060287 851029 PDR ADOCK 05000267 F PDR  ; I FORM 372 22 3643 .

4 n . s DD-AIS-1 Issue A (% Page i o f l9 A DESIGN DIRECTIVE FOR THE SELECTION OF ANALOG INDICATORS ECREWORD_ The purpose of indicators is to display a relative or absolute value iepresenting a system or process parameter. Indicators are a vital link in the opera tors inter f ace wi th the control loop. The effectiveness of this interface depends on what in format ion and how that information is presented. The use +o which the operator will put the in forma t ion presented, should serve to influence the level of information, as well as the manner i r, which that .nformation is presented. This Design Direc t i ve wiLl provide guidance in selecting indicators and designing scales for use at Fort St. Vrain. Design Directive DD-CBL-1 provides guidance in locating indicators. GELECIl0U_CDUSIDEE6IIQtf I. INDICATOR llSE A. Generally, indicators are used for plant operations in one c f the following ways.

1. For quantitative reading to an evact numerical value: reading time from a c loc k , reading pressure from a gauge, or electrical poiential from a VolIMOIer.
2. For qualitative reading: this means judging the approximate value, trend, rate of change, or direction of deviation from a desired value. It differs from quantitative reading io that the operator does not read an exact numerical value. _

Examples include noting that a ship h a t; veered to the right of a desired course, or that steam temperature is rising. B. Indicators that are to be used for quantitative readings shaLL have sufficent range and scale

t DD-AIS-1 I:ssue A Page 7 o f 19 resolution to enable the operator t o vna k e a rapid and accurate determination of the displayed value. C. Scale values and increments shat! not be used, which retuire the use of ca lcula t ions to determine a :pecific value. (See Figure 1, Page _) Displayed values shall be in an immediately useable form. II. INDICATOR TYPES There are many variations of severaL basic types of indicators, however only those acceptable for Fort St. Vrain use are tisted. A. Circular and Curved Sca le Wi th Moving Pointer. This design (Detail A in Figure 2) is recommended for use where a ma x i in um of exposed scale tsngth is required in a toinimuto of p ane t space. A compact indicator case, the Long pointer, and rotational movernen t aid checking and qualitative reading. B. Vertical and Horizontal Straight ^ ale lJ i th tiov i ng Pointer. This design (Detail B) is desirable for sh oi- t-sc a l e indicators. It permits a saving in front-panel space and provides a good means of pointer alignment and checking. The shorter pointer and lack of rotational (nov einen t , however, fnake it (nore difficult for the eye to notice change in the position of the pointer. C. Otgital D i sp lay. This design (Detai! C) present s a iarge range of quantitative values, and requires less panet space then certain circular and straight scale indicators. Conventional methods of presentation are usually inadequate when a large range of vai.nes must be displayed on one indicator. An ex avnp le wou l.d be the need for a pressure indicator with a range of from 0 to 2,000 lbs with reading precision necessitating graduated intervals corresponding to every 1 ib throughout the entire range. Thus, an indicator with a inoving pointer and a fixed scale would require an impractical scale length of about 100 inches. III. SELECTION OF~ INDICATOR TYPE A. While certain technical requireinents may suggest the type of indicator, panet layout, convention and operator expectations are i nip o r t a n t factors to be considered.

i DD-AIS-1 Issue A Page 3 of 19 B. It ir not the intent of this directive to preciade the use of particular types of indicators, but rather encourage the use of those types that are currentty i in use and have proven acceptable frota both functional and qualification aspects. C. Table i, Page _ listr those types presentty in use and accepiable for new design, without further qualification. IV. DESIGN OF INDICATOR SCALES A. De fini t ions (See Figure 3, Page _)

1. Scale Range. This is the numer ica l d i f ference between the highest and lowest value on a s c s. l e .
2. tia j or Subdivision. The nutnbered division Lines, usualLy differentiated from other divisions by thicker and longer lines.
3. Numbered-Intervai Value. Thii is the numerical difference between adjacent nuinbers on a sca le.
4. Intermediate Subdivision. An unnumbered division iine which separates a nutobered-i n terva L value, usually represented by a thinner and/or shorter line then major subdivisions.
5. tii nor Subdivision. The unnumbered division Lines, usuaLly shorter and thinner then major or intermediate subdivision lines.
6. Graduation-Interval Value or increment. This is the numer ica l d i f ference represented by adjacent minor subdivision iaarks.

B. General Considerations: Be fore designing a scale for an indicator the designer shall consider the following;

i. Signal range and source accuracy. (A source accuracy of !mpm!x 1% of range does not warrant an indicator scale with 0.5% range markings.)
2. Indicator accuracy. Indicator overall accuracy y(, sha L L be considered in selecting or desiaing a A scale. (An indicator with a mechani ca l hy:hDers i s or temperature error of !mpm!x 1% does not warrant a scale marked which implies a .5% accuracy.)

                          )

4 Est ab l i shed conventions.. AlL indicators displaying the same parameter, and range shalL have identical scale configurations. 5.- Transformed Scale Values. Transforming source (signal) values into scale values- relieves the operator of the necessity of remembering conversion ' factors and performing the mental gymnastics to convert the displayed information'to a useabte form. Example: Tank volume (gaLions, Lbs) should not be d i sp layed as inches of H!mdwn2!x0.

6. tNontinear Scales. Nonlinear scales condense a large range into a relatively smaLl space but in such' away as to permit sensitive readih9s at certain critical ranges of the rca Le. In situations where error tolerances are a constant percentage of-the indication, Logarithmic scales are -very suitable if they contain _ sufficient numbered graduation marks to minimize errors as a result of the Linear-scale reading habits of operators. Figure 4, Page _. iliustrates such a scale.
7. Directionality of Movement.
a. Circular Scales -

Scale values should increase with clockwise movement of the pointer. b .- Vertical Straight Scales - Scale values should increase with upwarri movement of the

                                   ' pointer.
c. Horizontal Straight Scales -

Scale values shouLd increase with pointer movement to the right. C. Scale Design

1. General -

For ease of reading, sufficient separation must be maintained between scale divisions. In addition, division marking Lengths

a , DD-AIS-1 Issue A Page 5 of 19 and line wid ths reflect differences between major and minor graduation marks. More specific recommendations for stale marking d iinens i ons follow.

a. The graduation-interval va lues sha ll be one, two, five, or dec iina l muttiples thereof.

Graduation-interval values of two are less desirable than values of one or five. Figure 6 and Table 2, Pages _ & _ gives examples of good, fair, and poor numerical progressions.

b. There shall be no more than nine graduatson mar ks between nutabered gradua t ion i nterva ls.
c. No r nia l ly , scales nutnbered by intervals of i, 10, 100, etc. and subdivided by ten qraduation intervals are superior to other scales,
d. Scales shall be designed so that interpolation bc; ween graduation marks is not necessary; however, when space is iimited, it is better to require interpolated readings than to clutter the dial with crowded graduations marks.
e. A s s uin i ng sufficient space, a scale that is to be read to the nearest i, 10, 100, etc. shall be designed (or selected) with graduation-interval values of 1, 10, or 100. If accuracy to the nearest 0.5, 5, or 50 units is required, scales shall have 0.5, 5, or 50 graduation iotervai values.
f. Scale interpolation. Scales that are to be read quantitatsvei.y shall be designed to be read to the nearest graduation mark. For instance, i f we assume a sca le range of 5 and a scale that is to be read to the nearest one-tenth unit, the preferred sca le would be numbered by ones witn a graduation mark for each one-tenth unit as shown in Figure 2, Detail A, Page_.

e. Contrast -

High contrast sha ll be provided by using back markings on a tub i t e bac kground .

f. Numeral Orientation -

Individual numerals on any type of fixed scale should be vertical (Figure 2, Pa9e ). 9 Zero Point Orientation Where pointer (novement is more than 360 d e g r e e s ', the zero poini shall be located at the 12 o' clock position. Where positive and negative values are d i sp layed around a zero or null Position, the zero or null point should be located at the 12 o ' c loc k position.

- DD-AIS-1 Issue A P age 7 of 19

h. End Point Indication On Pariial-Revolution Scales LJh er e the scale covers less than a full rotation of the pointer, scale end-points sha ll be indicated by a numbered (major) subdivision and a break in scale.

The break should be at least one n uinb er ed interval in Iength. The break should be centered at the 6 o' clock position.

i. Exceptions -

Certain applications of sca les require unique design features and, in such cases, c omp r oin i ses with the recommendations listed above foust be made. An e x ainp l e of these special cases include nonlinear scales. The foLlowing e x c ep t i on <; apply onLy in special cases. (See Figure 4)

a. Graduation marks may be spaced as c lose as 0.035 in., however the distance shall never be Less than twice the stroke width for white marks on black dial faces or less than one stroke width for black marks on white dial f aces.
b. The m i n i nutm distance between major graduation marks shall be 0.35 inches.
c. The us i n i o uio width of a wojor graduation ina r k shaLL be 0.0125 inches.

1. As s i g ninen t - Three colors having narrowly defined ineanings are acceptable for use in ' banding" scale type i nd i c.a t or s installed in the Fort St. Vrain control r oorn
a. Red: unsafe, danger, immediate operator action required, or an indication that a critical pari aeter is out of tolerance.
b. Green; safe, no operator action required, or an indication that a p a r aine t er is within tolerance.
c. Arab er (yellow) hazard (potentiaLLy unsafe),

caution, attention required, or an indication that a marg i na l va lue or paraineter ex ists.

2. Application Color banding inay be applied by the following methods:
a. Painting a narrow strip directly on the meter face.
b. Use of self adhesive tape.
c. Use of translucent tape over the scale card, NOTE: Color banding shaLL not obstruct scale markings or reduce marking contrast ratio with background.

Issue A Page i of D ==== % Ar I DESIGN DIRECTIVE FOR CONTROL BOARD LAYOUT EUBEWORD1 Control panets combine various displays and controls into a human-machine interface for plant monitoring and operation. These controls and displays are mounted in panels and panel console arrangements generally referred to as control boards. The exact location of a display or control is governed by three (3) factors.

             -    functional relationships and grouping
             -    anthropometrics panel structure Since     human    performance    is   strongLy    affected by- component arrangements and panel design, operability must be the criterion apptied to design changes after first determining that changes are in   fact   required,   and that      the   change   wiLL   infact      enhance operation.

Good panet layout contributes to operability in the folLowing ways: lt provides visual organization, which helps the and 3 operator quick Ly and accura tely locate, iden t i fy select controls or displays of interest.

             -    It reduces errors in operating controls.

It emphasizes important elements on a panet, further reducing the time and risk of error in Locating them. Good panet layout is characterized by severaL if not aLl of the fotLowing conventions: SimiLar components are installed in smaLL and/or irregularly spaced arrays, as an aid to rapidly locating and identifing particular instruments.

s l DD-CBL-1 Issue A Page 2 of Components related by function are either physically located together or visually Li ed togethe . Component groupings that are repeated in severaL places'are laid out consistently. Component operation and movement comply with population sterotypes (common expectations). Unrelated components-are differentiated.

     -Design    features of components,       such as shape, color, orientation, and case or bezel style, provide consistent and usefuL visual organization.

ANTROP0 METRIC CONSIDERATIONS Genera L Ly it is recommended that equipment dimensions accommodate the 5th to 95th percentile of the user population. Five percent of the population represented can be expected to measure-equal to or smaller than the 5th Percentile vaLue, while 5 percent can be expected Ao measure equal to or larger than the 95th percent i Le value. Thus the range ~from the 5th to the 95th percentile takes in 90 percent of the popula t ion. No anthropometric (human measurement) studies have been made to establish per t inent character ist ics of commerical nuclear power plant control room operators as a separate population. The equipment location dimensions recommended here have been l derived from studies of military personnel. Measurements for adult females define the 5th percentile. Measurements for adult males define the 95th percentile. (This procedure results in more than '70 percent of the total measured population being included in the range from the 5th to the 95th percentiLt.) A.

DD-CBl.-i tssue A Page 6 of V. DEMARCATION AND ASSOCIATION ENHANCEMENT Demarcation ano location aids are used to help clarify component identification and functional relationships relative to other components. The major objective of demarcation ano location aids is to minimize the opera tor 's search and selection uncertainities, which could lead to delays, confusion and errors. Location aids also improve the efficiency of information transfer to the operator and assist his decision-making process by organizing panel elements, minimizing visual clutter, optimizing desired associations between panei etements, and standardizing information presentation. Location aids atso can facilitate learning and retention of where components and controls are located, especiaLLy for new operators. The applicat ion of location aids (e.g., Lines, color, visual shapes) to control panels will intentionally or unintentionally affect the operator's visual perception of the panel's content. Whether or not the enhancement is successful depends to a great extent on the designer's knowledge of visual perception. This section addresses the undertying principles of perceptual organization than can be used to provide operators with visual aids on control panels. Based upon research findings by experimental psychologists, this discussion emphasizes objectives and cautions related to designing visual aids that correspond to the visual perceptions of the operator. A. ASSOCIAT10N Components appear to be associated or dissociated, depending on how they are presented visually on the Panel. Spacing, shape, color, and Lines can be used to aid the operator in identifying Logical retationships by visually associating related components. However, the opera tor can be hindered if there exists no correspondence between the relationships he perceives and the actual relationships between components. These techniques are illustrated in Figure 3, Page _.

1. Spacing - The components in Figure 3 (a) represent a typical configuration found on a control panel. No sense of grouping is provided. The spacing of components in Figure 3 (b) conveys the existence of three groups. Lf these groups correspond to logical groups, the operator is aided. If the spacing contradicts Logical grouping, the operator will be misled. Since it is not possibLe to greatly alter component spacing for add-on changes, other techniques can he used to associate components or to

DD-CBL-1 Issue A Page 7 of x override the undersirable groupings created by , spacing. a

2. Shape -

Similar shapes are seen as forming a i group, as shown in Figure 3 (c). This technique is generally implemented by using different style

bezels or knob shapes, however shape coding for FSV control boards will be restricted to differentiating special functions within a group and not for differentiating select groups.
3. Color -

Components having a common color a lso are seen as forming a group, as shown in Figure 3 (d). Color i ds perhaps a stionger cue than shape. Color coding of components shaLL not be used to form groups on the FSV control boards due to the assignment of color for function coding to pushbuttons, indicating lights, and Labets. Color patching of the control board is an acceptable method to be utilized on the FSV control boards.

4. Demarcation -

A line enclosing several cornponents causes them to be perceived as a group, as shown in Figure 3 (e) and Figure 6, Page _. The simp Ler the shape formed by the line, the more apparent is the result in a weaker grouping. Using beveled or rounded corners results in a stronger grouping, however. i

5. Mimic Lines -

Components also may be Linked visually by connecting them with a s i ng le line. ? These lines may represent either a signal path or process flow. Due to the density of the FSV control boards mimic lines shoLL ba used onLy in select Locations to associate interrelated controls. D. DOM [ NANCE Components can be viewed as more important or prominent than others, depending on the visual ' strength' of their appearance. . Line width, color, contrast, or combinations thereof can be used to convey a sense of functional importance to the operator. These techniques can be used in a positive manner and are i l lus tra t ed in Figure 4, Page _.

i. Line Width and Contrast -

Figure 4 (a) illustrates the effects of line width and contrast. The heavier and wider lines convey the intended meaning of a major group, with lighter Lines indicating various subgroupings.

DD-CBL-1 Issue A Page 8 of 1

  1. 2. Color Patching - Colors wiLL convey dominance when they are brighter or visually stronger than other surrounding colors. In Figure 4 (b), the strong colors visually dominate the intended group

, demarcation. StrongLy colored areas may convey an 1 importance that may not be intended and atso can add visual clutter to a control panel. Generally, strong colors shouLd be avoided where they are used for purposes of association. Such colors add to visual fatigue and clutter and provide poor backgrounds for Label readability. Carefully selected neutral color tones are much more effective for association purposes and do not create a sense o f c lut ter. C. CLOSURE Another normal human percentual tendency is to ' fill in the gaps" or visually extrapolate from existing graphic cues. In Figure 5 (a), (Page _) an enclosure is effected, even though only the corners are indicated. Figure 5 (b) illustrates an extrapolation of Line cues j that act as top brackets. The observer understands that two vertical groups are formed. This is a top-down phenomenon that does not work when brackets are pLaced at the bottom. This type of perceptual cue is used in hierarchical Labeting schemes. A hierarchy works from the top down, and the h ierarchica L graph ics ut i li ze the paraLLet perceptual response. [f components are labeLTpd at the bottom, the top-down hierarchical flow is dif ficu L t to apply. D. UNIQUENESS A seldomly used code has a speciaL property caLied uniqueness, which aLLaws it to appear perceptually distinct from surrounding components. However, the effectiveness of this code can be degraded epasiLy. For example, the uniqueness of a red pushbutton is lost if it is surrounded by many red Lights.

1. Color -

Color patching the control board area I which contains a particular grouping can provide the i operator with a quick and obvious connotation of meaning. However, this uniqueness is Lost when the area is surrounded by simiLar colors.

2. Shape - Uniqueness a lso can be achieved by shape.

Again, when similar shapes are presented in the same panel area, the intended uniqueness is lost. The application of a number of different shapes may aLso

DD-CBL-1 Issue A Page 9 of minimize the intent by requiring the operator to I c omsn i t both the shape and its associated function to mornor y .

3. Mimic L. i nes -

Mimic Lines generally are good techniques for aiding the operator. However, if a panel is overloaded with mimic lines, or if the control bIUrd has a high density of controls, and indications, clutter resuLts and the uniqueness of each individual s diminished. The intended visual aid for Linef# the operator becomes a potential cause of confusion, delay, or error. Th i s somet i rnes can be overcome through the use of color to enhance Line differentiation, but this technique also can be overused.

4. Demarcation Lines -

A simiLar concern for uniqueness shouLd be applied to Lines of dernarcation. If overused, the intended d i f feren t ia t ion is lost. Dernarca t i on Lines shouLd never cross. Also, beware of unintended lines that result f r orn the edges of component bezels or simiLar

artifacts. These roa y conftict visually with lines of demarcation or add clutter. One technique for (na k i ng demarcation Lines unique from aLL other apparent Lines on the panel is to use color shading to fill in the group, rnaking it visually distinctive and unique, as in Figure 6, Page _.

E. ESTHETLCS While operator effectiveness is the pr irnary criterion for i mp lernen t i ng a visua l a id, another factor in the operator's perceptual response process is a sense of esthetics. In general, a welL-planned and effective enh a nc ernen t shouLd lead to a visual aid with a satisfying appearance. If an enhancement does not , 'Look' right, there is a reaL possibility that it was i rnp lemen ted incorrectly. F. STANDARDIZATION . The need for standardization ( c on f or tna nc e to convention) through the control boards is a welL estabilsped f ac t. In essence, this means that consistent pattei4 shouLd be ma i n t a i neil in a L L of the interfaces between the operator and the plant. Providing an exact prescription for standardization of all potential control voorn changes is beyond the scope 4

DD-CBL-1 Issue A ' Page 10 of l of this document; however, the following generic principles for standardization shaLL be considered.

1. Avoid sophisticated or overty campLex techniques for encoding operator aids. Keep them as simole and se L f-evi dent as poss ib Le.
2. Avoid excessive variations of a basic code or operator aid. For example, avoid associating different meanings with different, but subtle, variations in Line structure and color.
3. Incorporate existing conventions, if possibLe. The requirement for operators to recognize different meanings for the same cue or to recognize the same meanings for different cues can be etiminated.
4. In some cases, it may seem necessary to change existing conventions. In these situations, speciaL attention shouLd be paid to the strong tendency for
an opera tor to revert .to o lder , previously learned habits under conditions of stress. Two quidetines are offered
a. Avoid changes to existing conventions, if possibLe.

a

b. Where change is necessary, make the change as obvious as possible to aid the operator in recognizing the new convention and maximize acceptance, familiarization, and training.

5. In summary, when designing visual aids:
a. Consider the visual response process of the operator;
b. Decide what information t o h i g h L i g ht
c. Determine what organizaiton to present;
d. Apply Principles, remembering that they can work both for or against what is intended.

PROPOSED CHANGE EVALUATION It is crucial that operators be actively involved in the preliminary design and evaluation of any type of panel taodification. Their participation wiLL not only ensure a broader base on which to evaluate a potential change, but aLso the acceptance of the modification prior to implementation. AlL proposed control board changes shaLL be evaluated for compatability with the man-machine interface. Location, grouping, demarcation, and Labeling aLL combine to create a control scherne tha t is either an asset to the operator or detrimental to control tasks. The operational control board is not the place to exper iment with the arbitrary p Lacernent of controls. This discipline, Like every engineering discipline, is an iterative design process--seldorn is the op t i rna L so lu t i on ach i eved the first tirne.

O similar shapes are associated. Color works in the same way arid is perhaps a stronger cue than O shape, as shown in part (d). In part (e), the lines fon. an enclosure to indicate associa-tion, and in part (f), the lines indicate an associatim between components (e.g., mimic flow). If these visual cues correspond to logical groups, the operator is aided. If the cues contradict logical grouping, the operator can be misled and is more likely to be delayed or commit an error.
