Commissioning Devices has Never Been Easier – or Faster.
Positively impacting the overall certainty of project execution, Smart Commissioning helps automation projects meet strict and shifting deadlines. New functionality in the DeltaV™ Distributed Control System (DCS) and AMS Device Manager asset management software improves device binding configuration, testing, and documentation.

Initiate a One-Click Commissioning Process
Take commissioning off the critical path. Smart Commissioning allows you to manage the entire workflow for commissioning HART devices. I/O Studio enables the creation of standardized device templates, allowing configuration and commissioning activities to be executed consistently across similar devices. Simply apply the template and initiate a one-click commissioning process—it's that easy and that fast.
Shorten Project Timelines
Smart Commissioning drastically reduces time and effort by providing an efficient progression from device installations to process startup. Laying the groundwork early in the process — before the binding of field devices — the method uses automation and field device data to streamline tasks all the way through loop testing and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions
Smart Commissioning is a workflow which utilizes multiple DeltaV software tools which help accelerate project timelines by simplifying commissioning activities and reducing the amount of manual work required during device setup, testing, and validation. This allows teams to progress more efficiently from installation to startup.
Smart Commissioning uses software tools such as IO Studio, DeltaV Device Commissioner and AMS to simplify commissioning activities, helping teams reduce repetitive tasks, improve consistency, and increase productivity throughout project execution.
IO Studio allows the user to setup device templates which can be used to standardize device configuration and commissioning processes, making it easier to streamline and manage multiple devices while reducing opportunities for manual error.
Smart Commissioning helps organizations manage large numbers of devices more efficiently and reduces manual commissioning activities at site while improving consistency in reporting.
By automating portions of the commissioning process and reducing manual intervention, Smart Commissioning helps improve configuration accuracy, reduce errors, and support more predictable project execution and provides a clear punch list report to identify issues.
CHARMs I/O combined with the Smart Commissioning workflow helps teams adapt to project changes more efficiently by due to the flexibility provided by DeltaV CHARMs, and the tools provided by IO Studio and DeltaV Device Commissioner which simplify configuration and commissioning activities, allowing updates to be incorporated with less disruption to project schedules.
