The Abnormal Situation Management (ASM) Consortium has released the second edition of its display design guidelines under the new name Effective Console Operator HMI Design Practices. The book is written for individuals who establish or assist in establishing company human-machine interface (HMI) standards, style guides and information displays accessed by console operators through their control system workstations. This audience includes individuals from both manufacturing and vendor companies that deliver solutions for console operator workstations.
The second edition is revised based on the ASM Consortium's user members' current best practices, recommendation from recent ASM Consortium research, feedback from display design experts and technology advances in the area of HMI.
