Take a look to EEMUA: ALARMS SYSTEMS: A guide to design,management and
procurement.
The procedure to asign priorities depends on the consecuences of =
missing
them or time available to respond. But first you have to have a =
standarsd
procedure to figure out if you really need the alarm or not.
Hope this helps.

Mark,
most projects I've worked for in the past use 1 for IOBAD and=20
emergency/shutdown situations, 2 for all other alarms and 5 for general =
stuff like messages etc.
It's been a long time since I've seen all 5 priorities in use at the=20
same time. My experience is that a too elaborate alarm scheme only =
tends=20
to confuse the operators (well, at least there are always some that get =
confused :).
All the best,
--=20
