A computerized monitoring system for emergency plant operating conditions at the Point Lepreau generating station

Like any other annunciation program, the monitoring for symptoms-oriented Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP's) is being incorporated in the station control computers. The programs: 1) provide event recognition and annunciate the occurrence in a special window on the annunciation CRTs; 2) monitor and annunciate when important conditions become unacceptable for any given EOP after the event has been acknowledged by the operator; 3) provide the calculations and display of parameters required to properly monitor the event in progress; 4) provide dedicated status displays for each EOP, as well as chains of other revelant displays; and 5) provide operator control over what is to be displayed and what important conditions are to be monitored
