Provide obvious UI link to online documentation when there is no User Guide installed

For any AVEVA products (especially the PI System) that do not install a User Guide, the user interface should provide an obvious link to AVEVA's online documentation. This link could be in the form of a ? button, for example.

For background, I primarily do work for pharmaceutical companies, where they say "you should have some level of anxiety when you are working in production environments". Often, I have to create a list of PI tags, but there may be errors in the spr...

Standardize the installation process to allow all AVEVA software to be installed in a custom location.

The "Recommended Disk Configuration for the PI Data Archive" article indicates that it is best to keep all non-OS software off the System disk. A few of the newer installations do not allow you to define the location. e.g. Connect to PI Adapter &a...
