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.

Systems and methods for improved device commissioning and decommissioning

The embodiments described herein include a system and a method. In one embodiment, an industrial process control system includes a processor and a link active scheduler. The link active scheduler is configured to schedule execution of a macrocycle. The macrocycle includes an application timeslot and an asynchronous timeslot. The link active scheduler is further configured to schedule execution of scheduled instructions for a plurality of field devices of the industrial process control system in the application timeslot. The link active scheduler is further configured to schedule execution of unscheduled instructions for the plurality of field devices of the industrial process control system in the asynchronous timeslot. The industrial process control system further includes a macrocycle viewer executable by the processor. The macrocycle viewer is configured to display the macrocycle in a visual format.
