Batch Interfaces

PI EMDVB Interface should not use the STARTUP.dat to determine recovery start time when configured in Failover and running in RealTime mode.

Currently when the PI Interface for Emerson DeltaV Batch (EMDVB) is configured for failover and running in RealTime mode, the interface will use a recovery start time (RST) based on the last time the interface was active. This results in the inter...

EMDVB - Add Option to End Procedure EF with batchview.endtime equivalent instead of when it's unloaded from the BOI

Currently the EMDVB interface will not end the parent Procedure level event frame until the batch has been unloaded from the Delta Batch Operator Interface. It is very common for users to leave batches loaded for quite a while which causes batches...

Factory Talk Batch Interface EVT file contains useful data in the Recipe column. Can we please add Recipe as a placeholder in the Interface?

EMDVB Data Type Enhancement

Please include option in the DeltaV EMDVB interface that can handle the timestamp format used with .evt files. Currently, if in the interface a trigger is used with a property, the timestamp format in the .evt file is retained, which cannot be sto...

Batch Framework Interfaces - [TIME] placeholder should consider whether TS=LCL is configured

Batch Framework Interfaces - [TIME] and [TIMESTAMP] placeholders should consider whether TS=LCL is configured (meaning the interface is processing incoming events as Local Time). Currently, values of these placeholders always show up as GMT timest...

Have the FTB Interface support multiple stop events for Unit Procedures
