Table 3<br />
Design Requirements <strong>for</strong> Maintenance Override Handling<br />
Design Requirements<br />
Control program logic and the controller<br />
configuration determine whether the desired<br />
signal can be overridden.<br />
Control program logic and/or system<br />
configuration specify whether simultaneous<br />
overriding in independent parts of the application<br />
is acceptable.<br />
Controller activates the override. The operator<br />
should confirm the override condition.<br />
Direct overrides on inputs and outputs are not<br />
allowed, but should be checked and implemented<br />
in relation to the application. Multiple overrides in a<br />
controller are allowed as long as only one override<br />
applies to each safety-critical group. The controller<br />
alarm should not be overridden.<br />
DCS warns the operator about an override<br />
condition. The operator continues to receive<br />
warnings until the override is removed.<br />
A second way to remove the maintenance override<br />
condition should be available.<br />
If urgent, a maintenance engineer may remove the<br />
override using a hard-wired switch.<br />
During an override, proper operating measures<br />
should be implemented. The time span <strong>for</strong><br />
overriding should be limited to one shift (typically<br />
no longer than eight hours). A maintenance<br />
override switch (MOS) light on the operator<br />
console should be provided (one per controller or<br />
process unit).<br />
