    Ability to manage non-impersonated linked tables without PI AF Server Admin privilegies

    PI AF Admin would like grant permissions for users that are not level server admins to create and edit non-impersonated linked tables. Currently this only allowed for AF server admins or using impersonated linked tables. User guide: https://liv...

    Make the connector a BACnet Device (get a BTL listing)

    Some devices can only send COV notifications to other BACnet devices. Since the Connector is not a device and does not respond to who-is messages (and does not listen on port 47808), the connector is unable to utilize COV subscriptions for these d...

    Suppress the creation of "Status Flag" PI Points

    The end-user would like to suppress the creation of the "Status Flag" PI Points, as they wish to keep their point count to a minimum due to the license-enforced point limit.

    Program objects (BACnet object type 16) also bought through by the connector

    The program object description is often very useful to understand what the various object instances relate to. At our site the description holds the Asset designation and that would allow correct assignment of the analogue and binary object instan...

    Auditviewer separation of roles

    I want to separate the security roles between 1) the ability to run an Auditviewer report and (potentially) associate a change control record to a configuration change and 2) the PI Admin Role in order to minimize security risk.

    Be able to configure PI AF security in a single PI System Explorer window

    Currently, there are 2 windows to configure PI AF security, and it is a pain to switch between them: File → Database → Edit Security, which is used to assign permissions to identities File → Server Properties → Identities tab and Mappings tab, whi...

    Log device information when the Connector receives errors from a device

    Currently the Connector logs when it receives errors, but does not print information that can be used to determine which device is reporting the errors. We currently need to perform a wireshark trace to look at the individual packets to determine...

    Distribute-Broadcast-To-Network broadcast for Discovery Tool and Connector

    When running the discovery tool from a subnet with no BBMD to query BACnet devices on a separate subnet, it seems like the auto discovery tool is seen as a ‘foreign device’, so the devices do not respond correctly. When analyzing a Wireshark trac...

    Have an option in AF Security to not pass down database security to newly created objects

    Use case: We want to give a user read access to a single element. All future elements created inherit the Database level Security, meaning the user will also have read access to all future created elements.
