Computer-Aided Development of Control Console, Control Panel, and Display User Instructions and Training Materials.

Abstract

This technical information series (TIS) outlines a procedure for developing instructions and training materials for control panel operation and indicator and display interpretation. The method is particularly advantageous when the operator has to observe and respond to large amounts of data and manipulate many controls. The process is described in this TIS as it is applied to the preparation of information for the tactical towed array sonar (TACTAS) System Operator's Manual. However, it can be applied with slight modification to systems having similarly complex man-machine interfaces. Data input, storage, processing, and output are performed by the time-share subsystem (TSS) of the Honeywell 520 Data Processing System (level 66).
