    For the PI System Connector 3, do not use the "compressing" attribute of tags on the source PI Data Archive

    The PI System Connector 3 uses the "compressing" attribute of tags on the source PI Data Archive to determine if compression should occur when it transfers data to the destination PI Data Archive. However, the PI Buffer Subsystem of any PI Interfa...

    Refer to PI System Connector 3's "cache" as a buffer and not as a cache

    Unless I am missing a lesser-known definition of "cache", the "cache" for the PI System Connector 3 is actually a buffer and not a cache. A cache is a place to hold data for faster access. A buffer is a place to hold data until it is processed. Th...

    Row/variable information to AF Analysis errors

    if then else in Analysis still checking/executing both parts

    If then else clauses are often used for input filtering for our analysis in AF. We often face the issue that analysis cause errors although the part which should not be executed according to the condition is causing errors.Example: "if BadVal('att...

    Classic Mode for Adapters

    One of the big issues we have with adapters (outside of the lack of write capability) is not having the same control over creating and editing tags that we have with PI interfaces. As we talked about the adapter automatically creates PI tags or us...

    When any time related functions need to be performed against timestamp columns in PI SQL Commander, one needs to utilize a significant amount of conversions to make this work. For example, if one needs to round timestamps to the nearest minute or ...

    PI SQL Client to make use of the RecordedValue method and Retrieval Modes for the GetValue transposed function
