Support dynamic indexes from Linux devices for PI Interface for SNMP

When the interface machine needs to be restarted for any reason, the connection to the source (when a Linux device) is lost because Linux uses dynamic indexes and the Interface does not have a way to manage that. Tags need to be reconfigured every...

It would be interesting to have an 'Output at close' option on EFGen like we have on a normal Event Frame Generation.

Allow some IF checking for TagPath to see if it exists or has a value before putting it on an Event Frame Attribute.

It would be useful to be able to add tags to Event Frame Attributes that only exist or have a value. This came up with a request to merge Batch and A&E so that Alarm Tags made by the A&E interface can be added to Event Frames made by the B...

Make the ICU maximize button work.

Clicking the maximize button in the ICU makes it take up the whole screen but the fields remain the same size. If the fields resized as well, it would make reading and entry in some of the smaller fields easier.

Support multiple Modbus devices on the same machine

Add support for multiple Modbus devices (using the same IP address but different port numbers) on the same machine. For example, the interface could allow the user to configure something like this: /dn= xxx.xx.xxx.xx:43120,/cn=1,/polldelay=0,/to...
