Have a list of all tuning parameters

Currently, only common tuning parameters are visible by default in PI System Management Tools. Somewhere, whether in PI System Management Tools or online, there should be a list of ALL tuning parameters with their description, subsystem, minimum v...

Search Mappings and Trusts in SMT

We have hundreds of mappings/trusts in SMT and there's no way to search them (apart from exporting it all to Excel, and searching there, then going back to SMT to make necessary changes - not user friendly). There needs to be a basic search bar at...

Please add product name (eg 2018 SP2) to the version information in PI SMT

You have to translate between software version (eg 3.4.445.688) and the product name (eg 2018 SP2) by searching for a document in support. It would make sense to show the product name in PI SMT alongside the software version

Skip Numbers in Digital State / Digital Set

There are other similar ideas out there on this site but I would like to see the ability to skip numbers in the Digital States Enumeration. We have areas of the plant that have states which don't map well to a 1,2,3.... set of states. Some are bit...

Remove deleted PI Identities from everywhere that they are used

Currently, if you delete a PI Identity that is still being used, the deletion will succeed and the PI Identity gets renamed to a number everywhere that it is used. This doesn't do much good, since the number does not reveal what the PI Identity us...

Provide "Point Last Accessed" information to determine clients' use of PI Points

It would be useful to be able to determine when (or even if) a PI Point was last accessed by a client application to retrieve its data.  This would enable redundant points to be identified and removed. Alternatively/additionally some form of...

Store Images & Pictures into EDS

Ability to store images as time bound data into EDS, and send the images to OCS for longer term storage, viewing or modeling/analysis. Example scenario: a thermal camera takes a picture of a furnace, image stored locally, and then sent to OCS whe...

Add option to clear buffer errors to the Buffering Manager

Currently users have to use the command line tools to clear buffer point errors. It would be useful and enhance O&M if these errors could be cleared directly from the UI rather than just viewed.Bonus points for allowing users to clear all, mul...
