Command Input

graphic symbols selected to allow operators to use the system without
extensive training or data processing backgrounds. The system shall prompt
the operator in English word, phrase, or acronym, or graphic symbols.

English language (words and acronyms) commands, allowing an experienced
operator to disregard portions, or all, of the prompt-response requirements.

up a code in a manual or other document will not be accepted. Conditions
for which operator error assist messages shall be generated include:
a.
The command used is incorrect or incomplete.
b.
The operator is restricted from using that command.

The command addresses a point which is disabled or out of service.
