Have the FTB interface capture "Active Step Change Commencing" events as event frames

Some FactoryTalk batch processes require "Active Step Change Commencing" event to be part of the batch hierarchy however the PI Interface for Factory Talk Batch starts event frames only on [EVENT] = "System Message" or "State Change".

Allow automatic interface restart based on Device Status

In some cases, such as when using a tunneller, the PI interface for OPC DA requires a restart to resume collecting data. A feature that allows an automatic restart of the service based on the value of the Device status Health tag would avoid human...

Add TCP option to PI UFL Interface

Currently the only two options are file reading or a serial interface. But what if you have ASCII data streaming from a TCP/telnet source? The configuration would be almost the same as serial - for the connection, rather than a serial port, just n...

Allow choice of AF reference by path or by GUID

PI UFL ._OK file rename should be after parsing to avoid data loss during shutdowns

My understanding of UFL (confirmed by tech support) is that it will rename files to ._OK extension before loading lines into memory. This means that if the service is stopped (such as during an update) and it has not completely read into memory an...

Add the ability for Coresight users with security access to be able to change attribute values directly in Coresight.

Swap context relative to AF hierarchy

As a user of PI Coresight I want to be able to swap context at a parent (plant) level and propagate new context to child elements relative to the AF model hierarchy. Currently only information on the Coresight display part of the same element temp...

improve display of table lookups in pi vision

Currently PI Vision suffers from serious performance problems when displaying more than a handful of table lookups on a single page. What is the point in having table lookups in AF if we can't effectively visualize them in PI Vision?

Add Mod10 to Custom Data Type Manipulator for Modbus Interface

Please add support for SquareD Mod10 custom datatype to the Modbus Interface. Schneider Electric uses a custom datatype that uses four 16 bit registers. Each register represents an integer. Each integer is then multiplied by a factor and all resu...

Enhance connection logic to source PI server during Interface startup

When PitoPi Interface starts up, it prints a message saying that it secured a connection with the Target or Host PI server as follows:  PIAPI Successfully connected to :5450. Then it begins to load target PI points and it starts looking for t...
