Allow using SQL as a data source for FactoryTalk Batch

Rockwell FactoryTalk Batch v12.01 allows to output batch data to a SQL database as well as EVT files. Just like with EMDVB, the PI Interface for FTBatch should be able to use both data sources.

Batch interfaces keeping merged child operation EventFrames open until the parent Operation EventFrame has been closed.

Currently for batch interfaces using the /MUP parameter, child operation event frames might be reopened and closed multiple times until the last operation event frame closes and the child event frame is closed for good. For example with UnitProced...

Expose most of PI-SMT functionalities to AF-SDK

I have to admit that I am surprised and disappointed not seeing any real good administration methods in the AF-SDK. Of course there is Powershell but what I would really want is a nice way of getting all the information I see in SMT and more withi...

PI EFGen 4.1+ has limited recovery capabilities

Up to PI EFGen 4.0, we were able to backfill OOO Event Frames by simply inputting the start and end time of the corresponding period. Since 4.1, this must be done in a per-event basis, since larger time ranges are modified so that RST matches the ...

Have the FTB Interface support multiple stop events for Unit Procedures

There are instances where a batch must be manipulated creating two Unit Released events in the event file. The desired behavior for the PI FactoryTalk Batch Interface would be for the second end time to overwrite the first end time when data is be...

Have the FTB interface not truncate the trailing "-#" index (e.g. UnitProcedureName-1) at the end of a Unit Procedure

Some FactoryTalk batch processes have overlapping Unit Procedures with trailing indexes. Because the trailing index is truncated it results in overlapping Unit Procedures with the same name which are then merged. The desired behavior would be for ...
