Table 3 describes the design requirements <strong>for</strong> handling maintenance overrides when using<br />

<strong>Triconex</strong> communication capabilities.<br />

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 />
