PIDInst is used to identify instruments in data infrastructures.

For organizations this means:

• Employ measures and incentives to register instruments with PIDInst at acquisition.
• make a person responsible to maintain the PIDInst for each instrument (e.g. Lab technicians).

For technicians:

• register a PIDInst for instruments which weren’t registered yet.
• keep the PIDInst related metadata of your instruments current.
• Keep a written record of the PIDInst on every instrument, where possible
• share the PIDInst with the customer with any measurement data you deliver.

For researchers it means:

• Record an PIDInst with any measurement. You should find it on the instrument.

For data infrastructures:

• record a PIDInst with instruments registered in data infrastructures.
• treat PIDInst metadata as the primary source of truth and update your own metadata accordingly.
• inform the responsible person if you think the PIDInst metadata is not accurate.
