P&ID extraction for Honeywell Experion projects
Experion R500 and R501 migrations land with a working plant on one side and a cleared-for-upgrade engineering window on the other. The I/O baseline from the legacy DCS does not transfer cleanly. Tag naming conventions changed, signal classes were reclassified, and instruments added during years of MOC cycles never made it back to the controlled P&ID set. Rebuilding that baseline from the drawings is the work.
Read one of your own drawings.
Drop a P&ID, instrument index, or schedule. Tagsight reads it to the tag and opens a workspace you keep when you sign in.

- I/O list with signal classification organized for IO module allocation
- Instrument index with redundancy notation and SIS service flags retained
- Equipment list covering vessels, columns, drums, exchangers, pumps, and compressors
- Line list with pipe spec, service, and metallurgy where shown
- Off-page connector matching across multi-page drawing sets
- Revision comparison reports between pre-turnaround and post-turnaround drawing sets
- Excel, CSV, and JSON outputs land directly in the engineering database the project already keeps, typically SmartPlant Instrumentation or an in-house tool
- Multi-page drawing sets are matched on off-page connectors so cross-unit signals do not get treated as orphans
- The output preserves redundancy annotations, -A, -B, 1oo2, 2oo3 so SIS extraction lines up with IEC 61511 audit documentation
- Tag uniqueness is enforced across the workspace, which catches the duplicate-tag failure mode common after multi-revision drawing histories

Do you produce Experion-loadable point database files.
No. The output is structured data the controls engineer uses to drive point database build, not a direct import file. The extraction step is the bottleneck on most Experion-based projects, and that is what Tagsight removes.
Are scanned legacy P&IDs supported.
Yes. Scanned drawings, vector PDFs, and CAD-exported PDFs are all supported as input. Older brownfield drawing sets are explicitly part of the design target, not an edge case.
Can SIS tags be filtered into a separate workbook.
Yes. SIS-prefixed tags, PSHH, PSLL, PALL, PAH, PT-SIS, voted variants can be exported as a standalone workbook for the safety case paperwork.
Is there an integration with the Honeywell engineering tools.
No, and Tagsight is not partnered with Honeywell. The output is vendor-neutral structured data that the engineering workflow consumes regardless of which DCS the project is built on.
