300

Any additions to, expansions of, or replacements (including like for like) to field devices whose function is to either gather data from instrumentation or to control field devices, and interfaces with SCADA requires this

What is a point to point verification?

SC.004 Section 5.1

300

A key part of validating points is the iterative process of running the points against this

What is the point validator tool?

300

The use of a signal introduced as close to the end field device as possible, commonly used when it is impractical due to operational considerations, to exercise the actual device

What is a Simulated Function Test?

SC.008 Section 3.2

Using the Copy and Paste function, an object can be duplicated from one location to another location on the same display or across different displays.  Once the point has been pasted to its' new location, this type of checkout is required.

What is a Targeted Checkout?
