Add a watchdog counter to API shared memory

Add a watchdog counter or something similar into the shared memory header. If the counter fails to update, initiate UFO. If PIBufSS crashes, data loss can occur.  implement something that allows UniInt to know that the Buffer Subsystem is n...

Assure changes made to any configuration of an interface are audit trailed

We noticed that changes to the configuration of newer interfaces / connectors like - PI EMDVBCS interface 4.0 - PI inbatch interface - PI Connector Wonderware Historian are no longer recorded in the PI Audit trail. (see also TechSupport Case # 9...

Device Status UniInt health tag should update during runtime without needing a status update

Currently, the device status is updated on startup, on change, on shutdown, and on each performance summary interval. However, for a device status tag created while the interface is running in a good state, the device status tag will remain at 'P...

Avoid reloading tags after edits of non-key PI Point attributes

Currently, UniInt-based interfaces will reload a tag if edits are detected on any of the PI Point attributes. This is not ideal as edits to non-key attributes (such as EngUnits) will still cause a tag to be reloaded, potentially leading to data so...

Support data collection across data diodes or similar technology

Regulatory and/or security requirement to separate data collection from data storage using a one-way data flow. Could apply to Interfaces or Connectors, for example PI Interface for Emerson Ovation. PI Interface/Connector -> one-way data flow -...

PI OPC Tools Upgraded for Packet Integrity Support

Please update the PI OPC Tools to support Packet Integrity authentication. The tools are useful and I would like to see them maintained and support with the latest requirements from Microsoft patches.

UniInt should include a test mode for all interfaces that collects data but does not send it to PI.

This functionality would allow users to test the connection to the data source and inspect the data that is retrieved without sending it to PI. That data might be written to a text file, for example. This would allow users to verify settings and ...

UNIINT Interfaces and Connectors should be able to retry an output event if output write fails

When an interface fails writing to a DCS system, the interface writes a failure status to the output tag and goes on.  User has requested an option to have an output tag retry after write failure. It would be good to have this functionality i...
