If you have a query that lasts longer than 40s and a phase2 failover configuration is used. The interfaces switch constantly from primary to secondary and viceversa. With the parameter "UFO interval" you can control this behavior. However, this pa...

Log bad timestamps for the PI RDBMS Interface

When the PI RDBMS Interface gets a bad timestamp from the source RDB that it cannot coerce into a PI Timestamp, the actual bad timestamp received from the RDB should be logged as part of the error message. This would coincide with the following e...

Alert user when the interface discards values

Example:  When using a distribution tag, the number of tags returned and number of values sent to PI can be mismatched, due to missing aliases or data that does not need to be collected. It would be helpful to identify what values are droppe...

Rename "Compressed Data" to "Archived Data"

In the PI DataLink tab in the Ribbon, "Compressed Data" should be renamed to "Archived Data" since it actually retrieves archived data and not just compressed data. The icon should also be changed accordingly. Not all data in the PI Data Archive n...

Rename "Timed Data" to "Data At Timestamps"

When I see "Timed Data", I think: "Well of course my data is timed! But what does this button do?". "Timed Data" retrieves interpolated/archived values at the given timestamps. Please rename "Timed Data" to better reflect this. I recommend "Data A...

Replace "https://techsupport.osisoft.com" in PI DataLink's About window

Rename "Time Filtered" to "Condition Time"

"Time Filtered" was meant to be interpreted as "Time [Spent] Filtered", but it can easily be misinterpreted as "Time[-]Filtered" (i.e. filtered by time, i.e. Compressed Data). Please rename "Time Filtered" to "Condition Time" so that the name bett...
