Create/Write to Child Attributes

I would like to be able to write to Child attributes with the UFL connector using the StoreInElement function. Currently, it seems that the Connector cannot write to or create an attribute with a path like: ..\Element|ParentAttribute|ChildAttribu...

PI UFL Connector Event Frame Generator enhancement and bugfixes

Currently it is not possible to create an event frame from the PI UFL Connector linked to an existing element, despite the documentation does not specifically mention this restriction, you can only link the new event frame to an element created wi...

Official testing/support for application virtualization

Currently, PI System thick clients such as PI DataLink or PI ProcessBook are not tested against virtualized environments, as described in KB01590. However, there are various benefits of virtualizing parts of the PI System, as outlined in the artic...

Option for PI Point Number Inserts instead of Tag Names - tag renames stop spreadsheets from working.

ProcessBook stores tags by their pointid. If you change the name of a tag, It will still show up in ProcessBook. We would like to have the option to store tags in Xcel by the tag number instead of the name. As an example, we are getting ready to ...

Add a Boolean data type

Boolean variables are useful for reusing Boolean (sub)expressions, concise debugging of the value of a Boolean expression, and extraction and storage of Boolean values before writing to Int32 PI status tags (e.g. on/off status, open/closed status).

Be able to modify the PI Point prefix from the PI Connector for UFL administration page

It does not make sense that edits to some of the PI Connector for UFL's JSON files can be done through the administration page, but not all. The administration page should be a 1-stop configuration shop.

Enable DataLink to display the timestamps of calculated attributes in EF

Enable DataLink (Explore Events) to display the timestamps of calculated attributes (e.g. maximum, minimum) of an Event Frame. Currently only the values are displayed. In PI System Explorer the requested timestamp is available. Reference to a for...

Support named ranges to avoid issue KB01369

Excel places named ranges in formulas when a cell has a named range (instead of cell references). Excel formulas become more readable this way. Datalink should support defined named ranges too. Editing a Datalink array formula directly in Excel a...

Allow specifying UOM for new AF attributes created by UFL or OMF

I'd like the ability to specify UOM for new attributes that I create. Adding categories as well would be even better!
