Abstract
Recent years have seen many process plants replace hard desk operator interfaces with modern computer based VDU interfaces. Alarm systems have similarly undergone a transformation in their user interface. The article describes some of the developments within the UK coal-fired generating industry in moving to the new technology, with specific reference to alarm display philosophy.
