f RESPONSE TO HED.#344 GSU has determined that the present design is acceptable. Operations has been using the PMS cong uter now for over two years and have had no problem / concern with the'ector coding. The main difference is that PMS of white. The important colors, uses yellow green for informatio7(,instead (alert) and red trip) are consistent with RBS conventions. A review of cost benefit 6,3 plant impact did not substantiate any further

. action for this HED. Ti.erefore, no further action will be taken.

g tr D- - RESPONSE TO HED #345 v GSU has determined that the present design is acceptable. The PMS computer has redundant screens on the same panel which you can easily switch from one to the other. A second backup screen also exists in the

' ?'i control room near the'FMS computer. A loss of a color gun would change the remaining colors, making it obvious that a problem existed. A review of cost benefit and plant impact did not substantiate any further action for this HED. Therefore, no further action will be taken, t
