displayed in full detail in the graphic area provided, with no<br />

8. IETM AUTHORING GUIDELINES.<br />
8.1 . Authoring style guidelines for IETMs. To ensure clarity<br />
within IETM data, the following principles should be followed in<br />
authoring technical information.<br />
a. Essential information in narrative text should:<br />
(1) Describe the system, components, etc., identifying<br />
special or outstanding features.<br />
(2) Describe what functions are performed, including<br />
inputs, outputs, interface with other systems, etc.;<br />
emphasize end results.<br />
(3) Describe how the functions are performed, including<br />
associated principles of operation.<br />
(4) Describe at what point in an overall system process<br />
the function is performed.<br />
(5) Describe the location of the component or part.<br />
b. When procedural text is combined with graphics, the<br />
following rules should be used to abbreviate, so long as<br />
the meaning is not altered or obscured.<br />
(1) Eliminate articles.<br />
(2) Begin sentences with transitive verbs (action verbs).<br />
(3) Use the imperative mood whenever appropriate. The<br />
only time subjects should be implied is when they are<br />
unknown and the passive voice is being used or when the<br />
imperative mood is being used to give an instruction,<br />
order, or command, in which case the subject should<br />
always be omitted (i.e., implied).<br />
c. When it is necessary to indicate time, begin sentences with<br />
“when” clauses. Example: “When power supply voltage<br />
stabilizes...”<br />
