Allow automatic interface restart based on Device Status

In some cases, such as when using a tunneller, the PI interface for OPC DA requires a restart to resume collecting data. A feature that allows an automatic restart of the service based on the value of the Device status Health tag would avoid human...

Allow OPC DA  Output Tags to capture OOO events

Currently there is no way to send corrected values to the OPC DA Server since they are triggered by snapshot. It would be useful if there was a way to alter the values that get sent in case there are substituted/replaced values.

Automatic restart of the OPC interface whenever OPC server is restarted

whenever the OPC server undergoes any restarts or configuration changes, the OPC interface will delete all old connections, groups, etc. and it will establish a new connection to the OPC server, loading all ItemID's etc (as if it is an automatic r...

Allow MQTT adapter to parse timestamps in local time without specifying a timezone suffix to each timestamp

We would like the MQTT Adapter to be able to interpret timestamps in local time without needing to explicitly state the timezone or UTC offset in each timestamp, but for the adapter to always interpret the timestamps as being in a specific timezon...

Support dynamic OPC addresses

My OPC server's items have the OPC server node name included in the itemID, for example: serverA.AB_1234.PV. I have redundant OPC servers and redundant interfaces (in failover) and would like the tags to refer to the correct OPC address including ...

Include information from Json body in the stream name created by the MQTT Adapter

As a system admin I would like to send mqtt messages from multiple devices to a single topic on an mqtt broker. Each message would contain data for the device along with a field to say which device the data has come from. Then I would like to use ...

Allow PI Adapter for MQTT to log the raw json payload received from the broker

For troubleshooting, it can be very helpful to see the raw json payload that the adapter has received from the broker, rather than just the error response from the attempted parsing. It can be difficult to know why a parsing attempt has failed wit...
Guest over 3 years ago in AVEVA™ Adapters / AVEVA Adapter for MQTT 2 Future consideration

Interface should reload performance counters after failover and keep track of them.

The interface should be designed to reload counters both at startup and when becoming the active interface after a failover. The interface should realize the counter is not available and periodically attempt to reload (ideally with a message to th...

Convert incoming string data to float and provide division all in the same tag instead of a PE

OPC server is outputting data with the currency data type (VT_CY) and it needs to be stored in the float type.  As per the OPCtoCSV document, the OPCtoCSV tool/OPC interface invokes VariantChangeType in order to convert this currency value to...

OPC DA, A&E historical recovery

We have seen that the primary OPC interface will be connected but we don't see data coming across since the OPC server itself seems to have a problem. Since the connection is still active we won't failover to the secondary. We have to leave Notifi...
