Abstract
A method includes identifying input/output (I/O) channels in a control and instrumentation system associated with an industrial plant. The method also includes identifying which of the I/O channels are not in use by the control and instrumentation system. The method further includes generating a graphical user interface identifying the I/O channels not in use by the control and instrumentation system. An indication that at least one I/O channel not in use by the control and instrumentation system is being reserved for use could be received, and the at least one I/O channel can be reserved. An indication that at least one I/O channel in use by the control and instrumentation system is now not in use by the control and instrumentation system could also be received, and the at least one I/O channel could be released so the at least one I/O channel is available for reservation or other use.
