Understanding Results

Reading Your I/O List

Excel Export Columns

Your exported I/O list contains these columns:

ColumnDescription
Tag NumberThe instrument's unique identifier (e.g., FIT-101)
Instrument TypeISA 5.1 letter code (e.g., FIT = Flow Indicating Transmitter)
Signal ClassAI (Analog Input), AO (Analog Output), DI (Digital Input), DO (Digital Output), or REVIEW
DescriptionWhat the instrument measures or controls
PageWhich P&ID page the instrument was found on
ConfidenceAI confidence score from 0.0 to 1.0
Review StatusWhether the instrument has been reviewed/edited

Signal Classes Explained

  • AI (Analog Input) — Transmitters that send continuous signals (4-20mA). Examples: PT, FIT, LT, TT
  • AO (Analog Output) — Controllers that send continuous control signals. Examples: FIC, PIC, LIC, TIC
  • DI (Digital Input) — Switches that send on/off signals. Examples: PSH, FSL, LSH, ZSO
  • DO (Digital Output) — Valves and solenoids that receive on/off commands. Examples: XV, SOV, MOV
  • REVIEW — Instruments that need manual classification (indicators, gauges, recorders)

Summary Sheet

The second sheet in the Excel export contains:

  • Total instrument count
  • Breakdown by signal class (how many AI, AO, DI, DO, REVIEW)
  • Count of instruments needing review (low confidence)
