.7 Human-System Interface Design The HSI design process represents the translation of function and task requirements into HSI characteristics and functions. The objective of this review is to evaluate the process by which HSI design requirements are developed and HSI designs are identified and refined. The review should verify that the applicant has appropriately translated functional and task requirements to the detailed design of alarms, displays, controls, and other aspects of the HSI through the systematic application of HFE principles and criteria. The applicant's HSI design process should be evaluated in accordance with the review criteria of NUREG-0711, and the final design evaluated in accordance with the review criteria of NUREG-0700, “Human-System Interface Design Review Guidelines.” The HSI design should address those subsections of 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2) that are applicable to the plant's design from the following list: 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(i), (iii), (iv), (v), (xi), (xii), (xiii), (xv), (xvii), (xviii), (xix), (xxi), (xxiv), (xxv), & (xxvii). In addition to the HFE considerations discussed above, the following specific HSI design guidance should also be addressed: 1. Safety parameter display system requirements, as described in 10 CFR 50.34(f)(2)(iv), NUREG-0835, NUREG-1342, and Supplement 1 of NUREG-0737. 2. Periodic testing of protection systems actuation functions, as described in Regulatory Guide 1.22. 3. Bypassed and inoperable status indication for NPP safety systems, as described in Regulatory Guide 1.47. 4. Manual initiation of protective actions, as described in Regulatory Guide 1.62. 5. Instrumentation for light-water-cooled nuclear power plants to access plant and environmental conditions during and following an accident, as described in Regulatory Guide 1.97. 6. Instrumentation setpoints, as described in Regulatory Guide 1.105. 7. Functional criteria for emergency response facilities, as described in NUREG-0696. 8. A minimum inventory of
