Commissioning Tag

The DVC6200f digital valve controller is supplied with a removable paper commissioning tag, shown in figure 2‐28.
This tag contains both the device ID and a space to record the device's tag number. The device ID is a unique code that
identifies a particular device in the absence of a device tag. The device tag is used as an operational identification for
the device and is usually defined by the piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID).

When commissioning more than one device on a fieldbus segment, identifying which device is at a particular location
can be tedious without tags. The removable tag provided with the digital valve controller can be used to link the
device ID and the physical installation location. The installer should note the physical location in both places on the
removable commissioning tag and tear off the bottom portion. This should be done for each device on the segment.
The bottom portion of the tags can be used for commissioning the segment in the control system.
Prior to commissioning, the device ID is displayed by the host system if no device tag is configured in the digital valve
controller electronics. Typically the placeholder displays the device tag. The information on the paper tag enables the
engineer to match the device ID to the correct placeholder.
As an ordering option, the factory can enter a device tag into the digital valve controller electronics during the
manufacturing process. If this option is specified, the device tag is displayed at the host system prior to commissioning
rather than the device ID. This makes the job of commissioning the device easier.
