SONGS allows workers to monitor personal articles in SAM-9 and SAM-11 tool monitors under limited supervision by HP.   We have had occasions where workers place material in the monitors, and do not push the start button, or place items in the SAM during a background count.  While an attentive worker can observe fault messages, it appears the messages from the SAM-11 are less distinct than those produced by the SAM-9.  Some workers have passed items through SAM-11s without an actual count.


Does anyone else have similar experiences?  How have you responded?
