Distribute-Broadcast-To-Network broadcast for Discovery Tool and Connector

When running the discovery tool from a subnet with no BBMD to query BACnet devices on a separate subnet, it seems like the auto discovery tool is seen as a ‘foreign device’, so the devices do not respond correctly. When analyzing a Wireshark trac...

Alert user when the interface discards values

Example:  When using a distribution tag, the number of tags returned and number of values sent to PI can be mismatched, due to missing aliases or data that does not need to be collected. It would be helpful to identify what values are droppe...

Allow the BACnet Connector to handle responses with an LVT that does not match the request

Currently the BACnet Connector expects devices to respond with the same "Length Value, and Type" (LVT) value as the request. When this occurs the BACnet Connector cannot parse the data in the response. For example: Request from Connector, LVT=1 Re...

Add option to select interface behavior for bad timestamps (PI RDBMS)

When the PI RDBMS Interface gets a bad timestamp from the source RDB that it cannot coerce into a PI Timestamp, the interface attempts to use the current timestamp instead and logs the following error: "pitm_settime() error - 15002. Using current...

Accept weeks and years in the relative time syntax for history recovery start and end times

For whatever reason, times such as *-1w or *-1y are not accepted, but times such as *-1mo and *-1d are OK. Please make the PI Interface for RDBMS accept the same relative times that other PI programs accept.

Increase the maximum timeout for the BACnet Discovery Utility with the PI Connector for BACnet

If a user has many BACnet devices/objects discoveries can take some time. Since the BACnet Discovery Utility has a maximum timeout of 240 seconds, this utility can cannot be used in these scenarios and manual creation of the csv is required which ...

New start-up parameter /SYNC_TIME defining a floating-window during which the interface will keep a RDB table in sync with PI data archive

The new RDBMSPI param:  /SYNC_TIME=rel_start_time,rel_end_time   for instance /SYNC_TIME=*-6h,*+1h When set, the interface: - after each execution of a query, which shall have the same "floating" window in its WHERE clause; for insta...
