    Add parameter "Max Monitored Items per Subscription"

    The connector for OPC UA includes a parameter “Max Monitored Items per Subscription”, which is very helpful in managing UA servers which may have limits on the maximum items per subscription. This parameter needs to also be available in the adapters.

    Enhance element creation to use user defined element templates

    The interface can automatically create an element at each level of event frames, but the elements do not derive from a template and there is no way to specify any attributes on the element. The enhancement request is to create elements that are ba...

    PI EMDVB Interface - Rename Parsed Files

    PI EMDVB Interface - Rename Parsed Files.  Files that get renamed to .999 is no longer available with PI EMDVB.  This file renaming feature was very useful from a system maintenance perspective.  We would easily remove .999 from the...

    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 ...

    Enable Adapter for OPC UA to use the Pub/Sub method

    Pub/Sub is proposed to be a more efficient and scalable method of transferring data using OPC UA. Allowing the adapter to access data in this way would increase the options for data collection, and allow the OPC UA adapter to be used in many more ...

    Have the FTB Interface support multiple stop events for Unit Procedures

    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 ...

    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".
