•The Tokamak control console is a system consists of related workplaces.•Often the user interface ergonomics of workplaces are not optimal.•Interface performance indicator are based on the information capacity of display.•The efficiency criteria are based on non-dominated alternatives selection method.•Ergonomics could be improved by rational positioning of frames in the displays. The multi-objective method evaluating the performance of the information visualization system of tokamak-type experimental device is presented. The method takes into account special features of the tokamak operation. The indicator includes not only evaluation of the space-time distribution of information in the shared display space of the information visualization system, but also relevance of information. The task of multiple criteria decision making is performed using Pareto optimization. This method is used to design the information visualization system of control console for the KTM tokamak.
