Allow options to alter the way the connector handles different qualities (bad, questionable)

At this time, the connector does not expose any way to alter the way data of different qualities (bad, good, questionable) is handled. The PI OPC Interface allows several different options with regards to “quality” such as "send only GOOD quality ...

Connector should rescan UA server, on a configureable basis, for new objects already defined in CSV file

Ability to monitor which OPC UA Connector is active in a failover pair

Add a Switch to the OPC UA Connector that we can choose if we want the AF Attributes to be created using "Browsable Name" or "Display Name". Using the Display Name would make it much easier for us to locate the Attribute and refer to its OPC Tag a...

OPC UA 2.x - Health information and connector statistics

In the PI Connector for OPC UA 1.3.x, some very useful statistics are available - Events in DA queue, Data rate, Variables Numbe - but 2.0.x these items are not available anymore. Those items should be available for data selection to be monitored ...

OPC UA bi directional communication

like the PI Interface OPC DA, it would be good to have the possibility to read and write value back to the source system.
