Data Collection Manager User management

We are running a central DCM Server in our site to maintain the dataflow between different UA Connectors and different DataArchive/AF pairs. We use this DCM to restart Connectors and to browse and select new Tags on a OPC UA Server. As central Ad...

Return row number from PI SQL Client calls

It would be useful to be able to access a specific row from a PI SQL Client call. For example if I query muiltiple attributes indicating some KPI ordered from highest to lowest returning 1000 rows, I might want to show only the top 10. The TOP fun...

Allow the SDK connection priority for the RTQP Engine to be configurable

The RTQP Engine is currently only able to connect to the Primary Data Archive to retrieve data, regardless of the SDK Priority settings. The “PreferPrimary” connection priority is hardcoded into the RTQP engine and cannot be modified. For users wh...

Having the PI Relay for OPC UA Connector running on a different machine than the actual connector is a good Idea, as we are now able to provide Windows credentials for AF Access without Credential manager. On our Site we are running several small...

Improve performance of creating large numbers of new tags

I have three large customers who have experienced PI Data Archive performance issues when large numbers of tags are being created. Specifically, record locks seem to take an extra large time (e.g., more than 15 minutes) to clear, and data updates ...

Add support for nested SELECT statements in PI SQL (RTQP)

The current version of PI DAS (RTQP Engine) does not support nested SELECT statements. This is a rather dire oversight, given that the older PI OLEDB Enterprise query engine does support nested SELECT statements. A very useful application of nes...

Add a "save changes" warning to the SMT Point Builder

In the Point Builder, if the user makes a change to one tag and they click on a different tag, ask them if they want to save/discard changes.

Progress Bar for deleting large volumes of data in SMT->Archive editor.

Progress bar for SMT->Archive Editor when deleting large volume of data. Currently, when deleting around 30,000 events it takes approx 20 mins and the GUI appears to hang and become unresponsive (it is actually working). A progress bar would a...

Provide a PI SQL Commander Lite Standalone Download

Currently, PI SQL Commander Lite is bundled with PI SQL Client, PI OLEDB Enterprise, and PI ODBC Driver. It is a very useful tool for PI OLEDB Provider, which does not bundle it. To use it, another provider needs to be installed to obtain PI SQL...
