SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVED DEVICE COMMISSIONING AND DECOMMISSIONING
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- a commissioning system configured to operatively couple a field device to a control system;
a decommissioning system configured to operatively uncouple the field device from the control system; and
a graphical user interface (GUI) configured to use the commissioning system, the decommissioning system, or a combination thereof, to operatively couple the field device to the control system, operatively uncouple the field device to the control system, or a combination thereof, by using a plurality of field device states comprising a mismatched state and a commissioned state, wherein the commissioning system is configured to transition the field device from the mismatched state into the commissioned state if the field device is determined to be in the mismatched state.

Abstract
The embodiments described herein include a system and a method. In one embodiment, a system includes a commissioning system configured to operatively couple a field device to a control system. The system further includes a decommissioning system configured to operatively uncouple the field device from the control system. The system additionally includes a graphical user interface (GUI) configured to use the commissioning system, the decommissioning system, or a combination thereof, to operatively couple the field device to the control system, operatively uncouple the field device to the control system, or a combination thereof, by using a plurality of field device states comprising a mismatched state and a commissioned state, wherein the commissioning system is configured to transition the field device from the mismatched state into the commissioned state if the field device is determined to be in the mismatched state.

12. A method, comprising:
-
detecting the coupling of a field device to a control system; determining a state for the field device; and assigning a first permanent node identification (ID) and a first physical device (PD) tag to the field device if the field device is not in a mismatched state, wherein assigning the first permanent node ID and the first PD tag transitions the field device to a commissioned state. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)
