OPC interface retries sending InstrumentTag/ItemID to OPC Server

The idea is to have PI Interface for OPC DA/HDA to be able to send again Instrument Tag/Item ID after a configurable time when OPC Server is not able to resolve it (AddItem failed). This would be a workaround for an OPC server issue and would help...

Create a programmatic access layer

Customers have been using DLResize in the VBA pidldialogs.xla project which is unsupported. It would be nice to create a programmatic access layer so that things such as DLResize can be done in a supported way. It would also be helpful to have pro...

Enhance the OPC DA interface to avoid mixing polled and advise tags on the same scan class

The interface does not log any informational messages about polled and advise tags getting mixed up on a scan class. Currently it would detect that polled tags are part of scan class 1 and reject it and print the following: E 13-Apr-16 17:26:18 ...

configure the PI DataLink language independently of the Microsoft Office language setting.

Provide easier workflow to retrieve the recorded values for EF attribute

As a DataLink user, I would like to see all the values of the event frame attributes during the start and end time using the Explore Events function so that I don't need to ask for the compressed values during that time range for each of the attri...

Compressed Data and Tables

Compressed Data should be able to (or have the option to) query multiple tags and return the results as a single table/array of information, instead of independent columns of data. Returning independent columns of data results in rows being mismat...

Enhance the OPC Interface to specify which groups are not receiving data

When a polled group does not receive data for more than 2 scan cycles, the interface updates the device status health point to 5 | Error | One or more groups not getting data. It will be useful to also specify which scan classes did not receive da...
