When installing instrumentation, cable is run from the marshelling cabinet, or some control system to the instrument in the field. The act of attaching the cables to the actual electrical terminals of the instrument or input output terminal at the Transmitting or receiving end is called Terminating the instrument. I.E instrument termination. Usually the instrument loop is installed in stages, where the instrument is physically mounted in the field, cable is pulled and run in cable trays or buried in trenches, and the ends of the cables are terminated.
Once prior to completely terminating a loop, the cable run is normally loop tested. I.e. Point to Point continuity checked. Once the cable is found to be good, and the instrument terminated, calibrated and tested to be functioning at the control system, the instrument is said to be commissioned. I.e ready for service. That is called commissioning. Usually commissioning forms a entire stage/phase of its own in a project.

Q1: Consider part of a control loop, which excludes the transmitter, consisting of a process, a controller and a control valve which may be represented by two dead times of 0.5 min each and three exponential lags of 0.8 min., 1.0 min. and 1.5 min. respectively. We wish to express this system as an overall first order plus dead time (FOPLD) model ie gain, time constant and process dead time. (We will see later that this is often done, to simplify controller tuning). For this exercise, gain is considered to be 1.0. (A) If the transmitter is a flow transmitter whose behaviour can be described by a dead time of 0.2 min. and an exponential lag of 0.5 min. in terms of the overall dead time and overall first order lag how can the system behaviour be approximated ? Overall dead time = Overall time constant = (B) If the transmitter is a temperature transmitter with a temperature sensor in a protecting well whose behaviour can be described by a dead time of 0.7 min. and an exponential lag of 15 min. how can the overall system behaviour be approximated now? Overall dead time = Overall time constant =
