    Add ability to handle exception point type changes 

    Tags from data sources can change point type for whatever reason. When tags are initially added to the transfer, a point type for that tag is created. If for any reason, the point type changes, it will cause an error in connect and the transfer wi...

    Provide additional features to support debugging

    When first setting up the agent, there can be scenarios where there a number of errors to work through - for example tag not found. Summarization of errors and an alternative to event viewer would aid debugging.

    Ability to specify default AF database during installation of PI AF Client

    Currently, the PI AF Client installation allows the user to select a default PI Data Archive and default AF server but not a default AF database. It would be nice, especially for silent installations, to be able to specify the default AF database ...
