    Monitoring Connector health

    Support for health tags (similar to UniInt health tags), Windows performance counters, or any other way to bring Connector status and health information into PI tags to put them side-by-side with Interface health monitoring.

    ICU startup on high latency networks

    On high latency networks, it can take ICU many minutes to start because every interface on the PI Data Archive is checked. Minimize startup time by caching a node's registered interfaces.

    Allow restarting on a data source basis instead of having to restart the connector

    Example 1 - OPC If a new connection needs to be made to one OPC Server, restarting the connector forces all data sources (and potentially connections to multiple OPC Servers) to be restarted. Example 2 - UFL If my web service is down and I do not...

    Remote PI ICU

    Regardless of where interface info are stored (PI Module DB or AF), it would be useful to have a remote client tool allowing administrator users to configure interfaces  like they do with tags and AF objects. Today when you have to change con...

    Control which PI/AF servers each data source sends data to.

    Right now, for one instance of the connector, all configured data sources will send data to all configured PI Data Archives and PI AF Servers. It is all or nothing. Due to the fact that you cannot have multiple instances of the same connector on a...

    Migrate the PI ICU settings away from the PI Module Database

    PI ICU settings are currently the main reason why the PI Module Database continues to live on even the most up-to-date PI systems. Please consider migrating the PI ICU settings from the PI Module Database to the PI Asset Framework or a separate fi...

    Output tags on connectors

    Sometimes we need to send data back to our sources. Connectors should support output tags

    Ability for PI Connectors to create future data point

    Add the ability for PI Connectors to create future data point. This is especially useful for the PI Connector for UFL. The current workaround is to manually create the point as a StoredValues=FutureData.

    Support Assigning Point Sources for Connectors

    Connectors currently assign point sources; this is not user configurable.  In addition, all connector of like kind get the same point source.  This makes it difficult to determine which tags "belong" to which connector node.  Users ...

    PI Connector Relay support write modes

    While writing data to PI through the connector relay there seems to be no option to control the write mode . E.g."[-109] Value at This Time Already Exists" is shown in the logs if the archive already contains an event with the same timestamp. The ...
