SECURITY PROTOCOLS

Red Alert:Can be initiated by the CO, XO, or the senior bridge or 
engineering officer on duty. Upon initiation, shield are raised to 
maximum, SIF is raised to maximum, standby generators are brought on-line, 
phaser cannons are charged, torpedo tubes are loaded with full salvos and 
armed. Red alert is indicated by red strobes or lights in all 
compartments, 5 second klaxon siren and audible notification. All crew 
report to either their duty station or damage control location 
immediately.

Yellow Alert:Can be initiated by the CO, XO, or the senior bridge or 
engineering officer on duty. Upon initiation, standby generators are 
brought on-line, phaser cannons are charged, and torpedo launchers are 
loaded with full salvos. The tactical officer on duty may also raise 
shields if they notify the senior bridge officer. Yellow alert is 
indicated by yellow strobes or lights in all compartments, 3 second klaxon 
siren and audible notification. All active team crew members immediately

is indicated blue lights and an audible notification. All active team crew 
report to their duty stations. 

Condition Black: "Silent Running" Can be initiated by the CO, XO, or the 
Senior bridge officer on duty. Upon initiation the Cloaking device is 
initiated and power reduction and ship emissions are reduced to a minimum. 
Any external emissions (communications, waste expelling, etc) can only be 
authorized by the CO, XO, COO and all emissions are logged and reported to 
the CO. The only exceptions to this are some engineering functions during 
an engineering emergency (warp core ejection, plasma venting, etc.).

Condition Green:Is the normal condition of the ship. Standing down to 
condition green can be initiated by the CO or XO. All systems are returned 
to normal mode upon initiation. Condition green is indicated by secession 
of the colored lights and an audible notification..

Auto Destruct:To initiate the self destruction sequence, computer 
verification of the CO and XO of the ship must both authorize initiation 
of the sequence. If the CO is confirmed by the computer to be unavailable, 
four of the remaining senior staff must authorize the sequence in addition 
to the XO. If the XO is confirmed to be unavailable, two of the senior 
staff must authorize the sequence in addition to the CO.

Auto Destruct Omega:The Omega self destruct sequence is similar to the 
above sequence with the exception that this sequence initiates a chemical 
release onto the anti-deuterium tanks that is irreversible and results in 
tank breaches in 10 minutes.
