It applies to displays used in machinery (e.g. devices and installations, control panels, operating and monitoring consoles) for occupational and private use. Specific erg

31、ator. This European Standard describes signals which may be detected by the eyes (from visual displays), the ears (from auditory displays), or from the skin (tactile displays) 3.5 display device for presenting information that can change with the aim of making things visible, audible or discriminabl

32、e by touch (tactile) 3.6 digital display display in which the information is shown in numerical code 3.7 alphanumeric display display in which the information is shown as a combination of digits and letters. 3.8 analogue display display in which the status information is shown as a function of lengt

33、h, angle or other dimension. In the case of visual displays, the information may be shown as a function of pointer deflection, length of a bar graph, or similar visual quantity. In the case of auditory displays, information may be transmitted as a function of pitch or loudness. In the case of tactil

34、e displays, the information may be transmitted as a function of the displays vibration (frequency or amplitude), or of the displays displacement. 3.9 symbols letters, digits, pictorial representations, or combinations of these, used for labelling a displays graduations, or as a means of identifying

35、the display itself. 3.10 perception psychophysiological process occurring in the central nervous system, the product of which is knowledge about the environment. Perception is a dynamic process and is not determined merely by the parameters of the signals which initiated it. As a consequence, it is

36、possible that the information obtained may be incomplete, uncertain, or incorrect. Knowledge may be based on one or more of the following levels of perception: detection, identification, and interpretation. Detection is the perceptual process by which the operator becomes aware of the mere presence

37、of a signal. Identification is the perceptual process by which the detected signal is distinguished from other signals. Interpretation is the combination of perceptual and cognitive processes by which the contents and significance of the identified signal are recognised. 4 Visual displays Visual dis

38、plays can be used to transmit large quantities of information to the operator, in a variety of ways. BS EN 894-2:1997+A1:2008EN 894-2:1997+A1:2008 (E) 6 4.1 Requirements for detection of visual displays 4.1.1 Positioning the display The physiological and functional requirements of the operator and t

39、he unobstructed lines of sight available during task performance determine the positioning of the visual display relative to the operator. The size of the operators visual field is limited, which in turn limits the number of displays which can be attended to at any one time. Two different types of v

40、isual task are distinguished: detection tasks and monitoring tasks. Detection tasks are those where the operator has to be alerted by the system, monitoring tasks are those in which the operator actively seeks information. Three zones of decreasing efficiency for visual signal detection are identifi

41、ed for both detection and monitoring tasks as “Recommended“, “Acceptable“ and “Not suitable“ (see Table 1). The centre-lines of the “Recommended“ and “Acceptable“ zones lie in the median plane and correspond with the line of sight, as shown in figures 1 and 2. In the detection task the line of sight

42、 depends on the main centre of attention. For monitoring tasks displays may be positioned around a line of sight that is at an angle below the horizontal which is known to be more comfortable for the operator. The angles presented in these figures are general ergonomic recommendations; it is assumed

43、 that the operator has normal vision, and is able to maintain a relaxed and stable (preferably seated) position, close to the displays. Table 1 Levels of suitability Level of suitability Significance A: Recommended This zone shall be used wherever possible B: Acceptable This zone may be used if the

44、recommended zone cannot be used C: Not suitable This zone should not be chosen Vertical field of vision for detection Horizontal field of vision for detection Legend: S: Line of sight, direction is imposed by external task requirements Figure 1 Detection tasks BS EN 894-2:1997+A1:2008EN 894-2:1997+A

45、1:2008 (E) 7 Vertical field of vision for monitoring Horizontal field of vision for monitoring Legend: S N : Normal line of sight, 15 to 30 below the horizontal Figure 2 Monitoring tasks Visual displays shall not be positioned outside the “Recommended“ and “Acceptable“ zones unless appropriate aids

46、have been provided by the designer. For example additional auditory displays, or other devices which do not require large changes in the operators posture. The “Not suitable“ zone should only be used for displays which are not critical for safe operation. Where the operators ability to discriminate

47、colour is important for the correct use of displays, the limits of the “Acceptable“ zone must be reduced, because the size of the central visual field (which is sensitive to colour) is smaller than the field of which is sensitive to white light. 4.1.2 Functional relationships between the display and

48、 the operator In general, these relationships are of two types. The first is where the operator seeks out and observes the display. The second is where the operators attention is demanded by the display itself (e.g. flashing warning or acoustic alarm); or the operator is alerted by one or more types of display (e.g. a combination of visual and auditory displays); or the operator is alerted by the status of the system to check the display.
