3 12. Calibration is essential in checkout, system test and startup because a. System dynamics depend on accurate measurement and outputs b. Of the need to prove the cost effectiveness of the different devices c. It reduces the device power required and enhances energy efficiencies d. Allows documentation of each instrument so accountability is increased 13. Loop Checking is a process of validating a. Terminations, wiring, documentation, device placement b.

The Installation Detail Diagram gives information about a. General assembly and installation instructions b. Altitude, FPI, piping locations, and FP positions c. Specific installation details of an individual device d. Piping, instrumentation, and documentation diagrams 15. On an electrical loop diagram, squares are used to indicate a. Terminations b. Setpoint values c. Conductor size d. Junction boxes 16. A loop diagram contains information about a. A single loop from measurement to controller to final control element b. Multiple loops from intermediate frame through final control element c. The measurement side of the loop including calibration points and terminals d. The control side of the loop including transforms and calibration instructions 17. According to IEC a PLC is programmed in a. Any of the below b. Function blocks c. Ladder logic d. SFC 3

4 18. On an AI there will be a 250 ohm resistor. The function of this resistor is a. I/P b. E/I c. E/P d. I/E 19. When using a laptop with a 202 Modem and the HART protocol to check smart instruments, in order to test the instrument a. Loop power must be removed entirely b. There may be partial loop power c. The loop must be fully powered d. A loop reflector must be used 20. Software testing will be greatly facilitated if the vendor uses a. A software assurance program b. Procedural language c. Multiple exit loops d. COBOL coding 21. Factory Acceptance Testing is performed when the a. System has been delivered and supplier is ready to test b. System has been delivered and the user is ready to test c. System has been built and has its performance tested d. System has been built; the supplier is ready to deliver 22. Site Acceptance Testing is the point that allows testing of the a. Operational status of materials and devices received during the IV stage b. Interface with Level 3 (MES) and Level 4 (ERP) systems (if applicable) c. The documentation from RV through IV and loop test d. SIS-only portions of the BPCS for installation and operation faults 23. When performing any of the stages of checkout, system test, and startup a. Documenting minor deviations is not of importance b. Storing documents on microfiche is the current methodology c. Documentation should be kept in a central location, preferably computer d. Databases should only be used if the maintenance manager is a programmer 4

5 24. When testing alarms and interlocks, tests should be performed with the system parameters a. Out-of-bounds first and then in-bounds b. In-bounds first and then out-of-bounds c. No bounds first and then max deviation d. Max deviation first and then no bounds 25. Function blocks which are reusable software components are derived from a. Object-oriented programming b. Procedural coding c. Visual Basic 3.0 d. OPC 26. During startup, safety is a. Of little concern due to the installation verification and loop testing performed b. Of some concern because of the catastrophic results attainable with new units c. Primary concern because many operational parameters have not been tested d. Primary concern because of possible bad public relations if a release occurs 27. Written polices and procedures are necessary for each action taken because a. Procedure writers are technically knowledgeable in the process b. In case of detrimental results, responsibility can be placed reliably c. They provide a consistent, uniform, and legal set of actions and definitions d. Management has issued an ultimatum that procedural actions must be correct 28. Writing and testing application software is difficult because of the a. Complexity of the underlying layers of software b. Lack of crude compilers that are currently available c. Redundancy; writing software is always tedious and difficult d. Long hours necessary for compiling and recompiling the code 5

6 29. Layers of Protection as a safety philosophy works because a. It has sufficient complexity that laypeople will not understand it b. Each layer supplies its own independent and differing degree of protection c. Each succeeding layer out tightens the constraining index of RE applications d.
