There was a problem with the company’s RTO instrument, and the operators on site simply disabled the interlocks; this poses a certain safety risk. I have a few questions I’d like to ask everyone 1. How is the interactive screen for auxiliary equipment at everyone’s company managed? Are there any specific regulatory guidelines that can be provided for reference? Is it also necessary to prepare operation tickets, just like in DCS? 2. Currently, the company’s RTO system has only two levels of permissions: operators have only viewing rights, and their operational permissions are limited to initiating ignition; meanwhile, the admin account has all permissions. The company’s management has asked us, as instrument technicians, to modify the on-site touchscreens. Is there any risk in making these changes on our own? Will accidents that occur later be held accountable for?
1. For the management of the interactive screens for on-site auxiliary equipment, companies generally establish specific operating procedures and management systems to ensure the safety and accuracy of operations. It is recommended to establish an operation ticket system to record and review each operation, thereby enhancing safety management. 2. Regarding permission settings, it is necessary to ensure a reasonable allocation to avoid excessive concentration or insufficient permissions. Regarding the modification of touch screen settings, it is best to have professional instrument technicians carry out the task, with detailed records and approval processes in place to ensure traceability and clear accountability. If making modifications oneself, it is essential to ensure that the operations are carried out correctly and that there are thorough monitoring and review mechanisms in place to reduce the risk of accidents. .
Good response from AI; thank you anyway
Clarify the responsibilities. One must take responsibility at work. It’s possible to get training if not possible.
The message is that the leader should handle things related to their own company on their own
First, make simulated assumptions and predict the consequences: what if there are insufficient permissions and operations cannot be carried out at critical moments? What if the permissions are too extensive and accidents occur due to mistakes? A detailed analysis is needed before any conclusion can be drawn; making decisions blindly is not acceptable.
For the instrument operation management of complete sets of equipment, on-site operators are responsible for monitoring and operating them; this aspect of management falls under the domain of process engineering. If changes are needed to the operation permissions due to process requirements, such changes can be made. The permission management for admins falls under the dashboard function; if the admin password is essentially useless, it can be changed, although this is rarely done.
