    PI interface for OPC .. UA

    it would be useful to have an interface that can connect and retrieve data from OPC UA server. it will help to avoid using any additional software for "downgrading" the protocol to OPC at client side.

    Allow automatic interface restart based on Device Status

    In some cases, such as when using a tunneller, the PI interface for OPC DA requires a restart to resume collecting data. A feature that allows an automatic restart of the service based on the value of the Device status Health tag would avoid human...

    PI Interface for OPC DA bitmask plugin with float data type

    PI Interface for OPC DA has a plugin called "Bitmask" to extract specific bits from regular OPC values that are of type Int (i.e VT_I2 / VT_I4 / VT_UI2) but other data types such as floats are not supported. It would be good to have Float data typ...

    PI UFL ._OK file rename should be after parsing to avoid data loss during shutdowns

    My understanding of UFL (confirmed by tech support) is that it will rename files to ._OK extension before loading lines into memory. This means that if the service is stopped (such as during an update) and it has not completely read into memory an...

    Please add a DAYOFWEEK function to the UFL interface

    Can you please add a DAYOFWEEK function to the available functions in the UFL interface. This will greatly assist with the handling of daylight savings transitions (e.g. first sunday in April) as there is currently no easy way of determining the ...

    UFL Designer should include a test mode to verify INI behavior with a data file.

    One can do this, to some extent, piecemeal with functionality the UFL Designer already has. However, it's a very manual process and does not actually have a way to show what data would be sent to PI for a particular file. An explicit test mode or ...

    Allow OPC DA  Output Tags to capture OOO events

    Currently there is no way to send corrected values to the OPC DA Server since they are triggered by snapshot. It would be useful if there was a way to alter the values that get sent in case there are substituted/replaced values.

    Automatic restart of the OPC interface whenever OPC server is restarted

    whenever the OPC server undergoes any restarts or configuration changes, the OPC interface will delete all old connections, groups, etc. and it will establish a new connection to the OPC server, loading all ItemID's etc (as if it is an automatic r...

    Add TCP option to PI UFL Interface

    Currently the only two options are file reading or a serial interface. But what if you have ASCII data streaming from a TCP/telnet source? The configuration would be almost the same as serial - for the connection, rather than a serial port, just n...

    Support dynamic OPC addresses

    My OPC server's items have the OPC server node name included in the itemID, for example: serverA.AB_1234.PV. I have redundant OPC servers and redundant interfaces (in failover) and would like the tags to refer to the correct OPC address including ...
