Claim 31:
32. The method of claim 26, wherein:
the DCS further includes an initial set of I/O data delivery functions that has been stored at the set of pluggable DCS hardware modules prior to an initialization of the DCS, the initial set of I/O data delivery functions including one or more of: an analog I/O function, a discrete I/O function, a motion I/O function, a near-infrared (NIR) I/O function, another type of I/O transport function, a sampling function, or a signal conditioning function; and
the method further comprises automatically generating, by the each pluggable DCS hardware module, the respective I/O data delivery mechanism corresponding to the field device based on the initial set of I/O data delivery functions and the sensed I/O type corresponding to the respective interface port via which the field device is communicatively connected to the each pluggable DCS module.
