    Have the option to discover new data streams, auto-select them, and save data retrieved for them, all with a single query to the data source, similar to PI Connectors

    Background + problem When PI Connector tries to save data for a tag that does not already exist (e.g. data for a new piece of equipment), it will create that tag automatically. This is very convenient, but it sometimes led to issues where data tha...

    For PI Points created by AVEVA Adapters, use the point class "base" instead of "classic" if the PI Point does not use "classic"-specific PI Point attributes

    When an AVEVA Adapter creates a new PI Point, it always uses the point class "classic", even if none of the attributes that are specific to this point class are ever used. Instead, AVEVA Adapters should create PI Points using the point class "base...

    Allow multiple instances of an AVEVA Adapter to exist on the same server without using Docker

    Currently, there can be only 1 instance of a specific AVEVA Adapter on each server if Docker is not used. However, within that instance, multiple components and data sources can be configured. This is convenient, but then the service account for t...

    Be able to save, name, and easily reuse query strings for data discoveries

    Currently, the query string of a data discovery is part of the data discovery, and once a data discovery is run, it cannot be rerun since part what identifies a discovery is the time at which it ran. This is not a flaw, but rather a part of the de...

    Use DisplayDigits attribute in formatting of cells. Note that hitting F9 will not reformat the cells if a change to the displaydigits is made. That includes if you change the tagname to a tag which has a different display digits attribute. Note: ...

    Rename services to reflect the renaming of the product

    AVEVA Adapters were previously called "PI Adapters", but the name of any AVEVA Adapter service begins with "PIAdapter". The PI To CONNECT Agent was previously called the "PI To Data Hub Agent", but the service name is still "PIToDataHubAgent". I'm...

    Support for additional Complex Data Types for all Adapters

    Manual Data Entry Function May Be Useful with Macros Becoming Antiquated
